I thought that I would relive the old days and see what people's Desktops look like.. I have recently come accross some really nice desktop wallpapers

Apologies for the crappy quality of my image...

I quite like mine, and the good thing here is: unlike me, you lot can appreciate it without the fingerprints all over it.

**chrismitchell** · Aug 15th, 2001, 10:35 AM

nice bg InvisibleDuncan... nice to see that people still use just the blue background.

nullus · Aug 15th, 2001, 10:37 AM

well, i'd like a better pic, but i can never be bothered to go look for one.

where did you get yours Duncan?

my home pc had a nice pic of Sam Janus on, but that got old.

**InvisibleDuncan** · Aug 15th, 2001, 10:42 AM

I took that myself on the way to this planet...

Actually: www.digitalblasphemy.com

He's got quite a few good ones with different versions of each depending on your screen res.

**chrismitchell** · Aug 15th, 2001, 10:44 AM

Bugger. Spotted that, did you?

In my defence, this is only temporary until we've converted the last of our users off 95, because we need to be sure all our developments work. After that, I'll reach the dizzy heights of (...drum roll...) NT!

We're not a very forward thinking company...

Here's my desktop, no matter how pissed off I feel it always makes me chuckel. (for the initiated the face is "Trigger" from only fools and horses)

How did you get that calendar?

spetnik · Aug 15th, 2001, 03:31 PM

http://www.webshots.com they have awesome desktops and theres an option 4 the calendar which updates every day. I started it here at work, and now everyone has it.

**filburt1** · Aug 15th, 2001, 03:48 PM

Ew, these are pathetic compared to Digital Blasphemy.

scoutt · Aug 15th, 2001, 04:14 PM

why even have a desktop wallpaper if you have so many shortcuts that cover it all up. how can you find anything in that mess.

**filburt1** · Aug 15th, 2001, 04:16 PM

I have only four icons on my desktop:

Arien's Computer (I renamed it)
Network Neighborhood (renamed from the stupid "My Network Places")
Arien's Stuff (Renamed from My Documents)
Recycle Bin (didn't rename it but changed the icon )

I store only quick downloads and temporary files there.

scoutt · Aug 15th, 2001, 04:22 PM

well here is a linux one. I just set it up so I haven't had time to clean it up yet.

**filburt1** · Aug 15th, 2001, 04:23 PM

Eww, KDE. *gag*

scoutt · Aug 15th, 2001, 04:31 PM

well yeah... I use both.

**scsa20** · Aug 15th, 2001, 09:30 PM

here's my desktop (needs some cleaning but I don't care

)

**JungleMan** · Aug 15th, 2001, 09:45 PM
