following on this new tradition, I will get the ball rolling... I have 10 different wallpapers in rotation, I picked out one at random...

My Desktop thumbsupsmiley.gif

p.s. no need to repost your desktop if it hasn't changed... mellow.gif

wish I could get smartbarxp working so I could maybe replace my dock eventually. dam nthing crashes everytime it goes to update weather or quote of the day.

pretty nice desktop there, just seems a little cluttered.

Your simple backgrounds... tongue.gif

Very nice car though smile.gif
.::PHPfanatic::.
I like all your desktops (theme & icons).
@snocked: Which Linux dist are you running?

Here's my current desktop:
Desktop
I really like the icons and theme (most of the icons are CrystalMX and the theme is BlueCurve 4 which can be viewed and downloaded here).

@rockman56: If I were a mod of this cat I would edit your post but seeing as I'm not, could you post the link to your desktop instead. Thanks, otherwise the board parameters are out of proportion.

edit: Nevermind snocked, I know that's Slackware.
actz
here it is what you've all been waiting for actz desktop

that's how it looks on a good day
Troa34
lol why's the date blurred out.... using an old screenshot? How dare you messy desktop man!
GTX5_Crusader
Lots and lots of files tongue.gif

Many of them blured too tongue.gif
actz
no its actually a screenshot i just took but yes i did blur out the date ... i may be in the future and i dont want you all to find out did you ever think of that hehe

sometimes its so messy i loose icons that trail off the screen sad.gif
Rezza
oh my god dude, that is scary.... I've got a new desktop, in the process of adding final touches for screenshot
bangbang023
actz: I would die ifI had your desktop lol

This is my desktop. I have objectdock running but have it on autohide because I like things clean. I almost wish I couldn't post because I still had my girlfriend (now ex) up but oh well.

the image is only at 75% image quality so there is some blurriness and banding in the screenshot.

yay, finally BB's desktop is available

urh...

phew, I'm glad my mum wasn't in the room when that loaded, lol
actz
hehe i just checked out bangbang023 desktop and now looking at mine i just want to cry out loud sad.gif i dont know how it seem to happen but 120GB HD has 10mb left in about 2 weeks and my desktop well you can see how it looks hehehe i need some serious help. bangbang desktop has inspired me to fix mine up and organise the folders so maybe i'll repost a image later this week but i tried this before and never ended up doing it so dont hold your breath hehe
Troa34
errr uhh is it just me or does Actz's link now show Bangbangs desktop?
actz
link fixed I had it pointing the the latest upload blush.gif
bangbang023
I'm glad you guys like it. I'm very veyr picky about my themes and right now I am not happy with the color matching. The wallapaper was made for the theme I am using but it doesn't seem to work well. I want a nice blue theme, something simple and elegant, but I have yet to find something good enough for my tastes. I oculd go back to b0seDMX but I used that for so long that I am bored of it.
.::PHPfanatic::.
Oh that's right, I never uploaded my latest desktop last night, it looks exactly like RedHat 9.2. How does this look for a nice, elegant, blue bg, bangbang? This screenshot's bg is a little blurred but when I post mine you'll get a better feeling for how this bg really looks.

You can download the BlueCurve Wallpaperpack here. It has the bg in the screenshot as well as about 6 others (RedHat 9.0 wallpapers).
.::PHPfanatic::.
Here's my latest desktop; just finished the final customizations last night but I'm sure I'll customize more, I always do. In fact, I've downloaded Bluecurve 3.7 (the version you see there is 4.0 but I like the min, max, and close buttons better in 3.7).

Bluecurvev4

Do you like that wallpaper, bangbang?
bangbang023
The wallpaper is great and I am sure the theme works fine for you, but i want a theme, for myself at least, that has a blue taskbar. I know about the Bluecurve theme from Neowin, just not my style. Thanks for the recommendation though.
.::PHPfanatic::.
You're welcome, bangbang... that's okay, everyone has their personal preference. sad.gif tongue.gif I don't know, I've always loved the Bluecurve theme. I say this is going to stay as my theme forever but it won't, you watch.
Rezza
I recently changed, again, I'm quite liking this, I wish it came in thin taskbar format though

Here's mine thumbsupsmiley.gif
rockman56
nice rezza...wall's sorta freaky tho ohmy.gif
.::PHPfanatic::.
I really like Bluecurve, brighter themes seem a more professional to me. Overall, I like the theme... the wall is freaky.
.::PHPfanatic::.
What ever happened to a cleanup of your desktop, eh actz? I usually say I'm going to do something that requires organization and never do it too, especially when it's that cluttered. ohmy.gif
GTX5_Crusader
I need to get a new wallpaper... tongue.gif
rockman56
changed things up a bit smile.gif

click
.::PHPfanatic::.
Hehe very nice.
snocked
Gentoo in that screen but I normally use Slackware.
.::PHPfanatic::.
Oh thanks, snocked, I completely forgot I had even asked that question now.
M$ Agent #2
I have an archive of about 1,400+ Wallpapers if anyone with a high speed connect wants them (I hand sorted them out so there isnt any naked women or just plain stupid ones either) I change mine almost daily now heheheheh smile.gif
rockman56
u wouldn't happen to have that wall of megaman zero i used in one of my older screenshots would u? i lost it and can't find it online anymore sad.gif
.::PHPfanatic::.
I love the wallpapers at florian.freundt.org, a site I just found last night thanks to StudyTwentyEight. I change my bg practically everyday too, M$.
Rezza
Here's another one... this theme is messed up, it's 10MBs, it comes with it's very own applications and heaps of icons for everything... pretty cool, I espicially like the transparent Start menu!

My Desktop

p.s. the wallpaper is from another theme, which has some really cool bootup sounds, etc.

If anyone likes cars as desktops, PM me if you want some. I have alot (and am still building the list). I have cars from Acura, Alpha Romeo, Aston Martin, Bugatti, Cadillac, Chevrolet, Dodge, Ford, Intaldesign, Jaguar, Koenigsegg, Lamborghini, Laraki, McLaren, and Mercedes-Benz biggrin.gif.

I use http://www.geeknewz.com/imagedb/albums/use...0007/GT%205.jpg as my wallpaper at school biggrin.gif
bangbang023

Hehe no kidding. I have 7 system tray icons right now but it used to be a much smaller amount, maybe 2 (Norton Firewall and Antivirus). Now it's AntiVir, Sygate Personal Firewall Pro, BitSpirit (temp), Y' zToolBar, and tinySpell.

I'm offtopic.gif, continue on...
GTX5_Crusader
I tried one time to get as many system tray icons I could... I could only get 27 though...

I had to reload my system after that too... tongue.gif
actz
Finaly got around to sorting my destop out... here is the new look but all those icons that i used to have really arent gone they are just thrown into folders destop1 and 2 hehe both have loads of stuff in them hehe
