Time to post desktops again

[Maestro]

I like this one I am using now. It makes me smile. It is from one of the protests in New York in January.



The rest of the other things you see are from a program called Konfabulator and Icon Packager.

[Maestro]

1. Wow!

This sunk faster than a two ton weight in a whirlpool. I guess there are too many topless threads. :)

[agates]

3. Nice desktop

I'd post a picture of mine but first I'd have to clean up all the junk, extra shortcuts, unused icons, etc. Kind of like not inviting someone in the house because of the mess...

[Maestro]

5. Oh c'mon

You really need to see my house right now. It's freakin' mess. Tomorrow is cleaning day.

[SouthoftheBorderPaul]

6. here's mine.

Taken in Spain at La Pedrera....a Gaudi building:

[Maestro]

7. Sweeet!!!!!

I love Gaudí. Was that in Barcelona? I know most of his architecture is there. I love Spain. I tried to move there some 15 years ago teaching English, but I just couldn't swing it. I had visited previously and fell in love with the people and country.

[SouthoftheBorderPaul]

9. Yeah, that's Barcelona alright....

Went last year. Great city.

Sorry, that's not really my desktop, just my desktop pic. Anyhoo, glad you like the pic!

[texas1928]

8. Nah my topless thread sank faster.

Til I changed it and then one person replied. Man how depressing. I am not a sex god anymore.

[Maestro]

11. I think there are too many.

Besides you and I can't compete with women DUers going topless like Rev_Acts and Progmom. Really, we can't compete. Don't take it personally. Maybe you can post a desktop of you topless. ;)

[texas1928]

18. Yeah right

Come on post your angel picture.

[Maestro]

22. This one?

[texas1928]

26. Yeah that one.

Want me to post it?

[Maestro]

29. I just did.

:) But sure, if you want to post it in a topless thread, have at it. It'd be funny.

[texas1928]

31. No in a seperate stand alone thread.

Silly.

And I think people would wonder why I have a pic like that of you.

[Maestro]

36. Do it! Let the rumors start.

I have had enough crap this that I really don't care. I'd be a gas. Make up some background story about how you got the pic. It'll be hilarious.

[texas1928]

38. I will post a link to this thread.

And to that post in particular.

I am a chicken.

[Maestro]

40. Rev_Acts just started a Lounge Gone Wild thread

You could link from inside that thread. Or just start a new one.

[texas1928]

41. I started a new one.

HEE HEE!!!

[Maestro]

45. I'm checking it out.

Anybody home?

[khashka]

2. Sorry but I can't post mine

It would get this thread deleted and me not so nicely asked never to come back :(

Khash.

[Maestro]

4. Well

Geez, what the hell does it have? People engaging in "relations?" It can't be that bad, but don't get banned.

[khashka]

13. Well in the most restrained way

Black BG with B&W pic of two men with certain body fluids, best left unnamed, passing from mouth to mouth. Not to everyone's taste but I think it's kinda sweet.

Khash.

[Maestro]

17. !

Yeah that might be a shocker to some.

[khashka]

19. Told you so!

Now aren't you glad I didn't post it?

Khash.

[Maestro]

24. Well if it gets you banned

then yes, I am glad you didn't post it. Don't want to see you banned.

[Neoma]

10. alright.

Edit:
My wallpaper.

[Maestro]

12. It's a little small

but she does look sexy.

Edit to your edit: She is still sexy!

[texas1928]

14. Mine

[Maestro]

15. Into Call of Duty, uh?

I am still working through Doom3, HL2 and Far Cry. I am really a flight simmer though. Don't have time for much of any of it though.

[texas1928]

16. We have a private server set up.

I play when I have time. I usually run the server for Medal of Honor.

[Maestro]

20. Coolness

Do you have your own on-line team?

[texas1928]

23. We can never get enough people to have a team

We just are a bunch of co-workers who run around in there and kill each other.

[Maestro]

25. You're supposed to kill the enemy

;)

[texas1928]

28. We play free-for-all

So it is a run around and shoot at anything that moves.

[Maestro]

34. Kind of like paintball -nt

[texas1928]

35. Yeah, like that.

We tried teams, but I am used to playing FFA and I tend to shoot at anything that moves. Shot to many teammates.

[Maestro]

37. No wonder you can't get enough

people. They all know you'll shoot them. Ever play the Rainbow Six series or Splinter Cell? I finished SC last year but haven't picked up any of the sequels yet.

[texas1928]

46. No have not played those.

I am more of a History related First person shooter.

[Mojambo]

21. How do you take a screen shot of your desktop?

I have Windows 98

[Maddy McCall]

30. Do you have Adobe Photoshop?

[Maestro]

32. You still should be able to press the

PRT SCRN key on your keyboard. This puts the image on your clipboard. Then using a photo manipulation program you can paste the contents of the clipboard into your program. Save it as a jpeg file and upload it to a photo hosting service like Photobucket. Then just post the image tag it gives you in your post and magically it appears.

[Mojambo]

39. Thanks. I got it

I like my desktop stark and simple. Photos tend to distract me.

[Maestro]

42. I can't see it

Did you use the right tags?

[Mojambo]

44. I did. It showed up when I previewed it?

I have no idea why it's not showing.

I'll doublecheck.

[Maestro]

49. If I cut and paste the URL

I can see it. What's that radio thing I see to the right?

[Mojambo]

51. Winamp

It's the EMP skin.

[Maestro]

53. Oh

I don't use Winamp. Is that windows skinning program? What is it exactly?

[Mojambo]

56. WinAmp is an Audio player n/t

[Maestro]

59. Wow I was way off!

:lol:

[Maddy McCall]

27. I have a cuddly couple on mine.

My pup, Lucinda, and my cat, Kitty:

[Maestro]

33. Too cute!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Very clean desktop by the way. I could never be that clean even if I actively tried.

[Hatalles]

48. No sex threads!!!

:evilgrin: So sorry... but someone had to do it. :D

[huskerlaw]

43. Desktop picture

Because I'm too mac-stupid to figure out how to turn my .tff file into something that photobucket will accept...here's my background pic:

[Maestro]

52. Neat

but why did that waiter push that lady in the pool? Not a good tipper? :shrug: ;)

[huskerlaw]

57. LMAO, the lady...

is Allison Janney. It's from a movie...or something. Actually, I don't know the story, I just thought it was a funny pic.

[FunkyLeprechaun]

47. Mine

and repeated all over the desktop (I'm a Mac, not Windows)

[Maestro]

54. I think I would hypnotize myself

looking at so many juggling balls. :D

[SoCalDem]

50. Here's my new one.. found at b3ta..It's Poor little Kevin

[Maestro]

55. That is funny!

The colors go well with your sig which is also a laugh riot.

[New Earth]

58. here's mine

i need to clean it up soon huh :eyes:




:loveya:

[Maestro]

60. Who are the guys? -nt

[New Earth]

61. VNV Nation

best band ever, after 311 :loveya:

[Maestro]

62. I'll check them out.

I'm always looking for new music.

[New Earth]

63. cool!

just make sure you listen to as many songs as you can before you judge, all their songs are totally different and they have to grow on you.

also, if you use iTunes, try and get some songs from the new album Matter + Form. Arena and Perpetual are unbelievable! (and if you listen to those two songs, get ready to feel HAPPY about life)

[Maestro]

64. Oh yeah I have iTunes

plus about 50 iMixes. I love iTunes. I have been able to get back in touch with bands I had forgotten about because of it.

[jus_the_facts]

[purr]

[Maestro]

68. You're expecting?

Congratulations! Is this your first or do you already have children?

[purr]

69. I'm working on my 3rd..

I already have a 4 yr old son, and a 2 year old daughter. My 2nd son is cooking in the oven right now and isnt due to come out until Aug 31.

[Maestro]

73. You will have your hands full

but kids are great. I love my two cuties. They are climbing on me right now. ;)

[Maestro]

67. Changed my desktop and icons again

[purr]

70. How did you get the

weather and the picture things on your desktop?

[Maestro]

72. Go to

Konfabulator I have used all sorts of desktop enhancement products and this one is by far the best.

[MuseRider]

71. At the moment

because of the season I am using this picture.



Taken by my neighbor last year from my farm.

[Maestro]

74. Neat

My wife and I were caught by one on the way to San Antonio in 1996 I think. It was that horrible day when Jarrel, Texas was leveled by that F5. We saw a smaller one a few hours before that happened off of I-35. It was awesomely gorgeous.

[MuseRider]

77. I remember that one

I had a friend who lived very close to Jarrel. As someone who had seen and lived through an F5 I always pay attention to those stories. They are all awesome, even the little twisty ones that never come all the way down. I had left my farm 10 or 15 minutes before that picture was taken. No warnings were ever issued, they missed this one entirely.

[ghostsofgiants]

75. Hasn't changed since the last time we had one of these threads...

[Maestro]

76. Awesome!

What OS are you using?

[ghostsofgiants]

78. Windows XP

I use Style XP to change my visual style from the regular Windows crap.

[Maestro]

80. Oh okay

I use Konfabulator.

[Cannikin]

81. Here's mine...

[giant_robot]

84. My messy desktop:

85. Damn! Dunno why that didn't work. Anyway, here's my

desktop picture:

[Jamastiene]

86. Mine

I just got Final Destination 2, so you can guess what wallpaper I am using.

[ronnykmarshall]

87. Here ya go

This is my current one.




and of course my famous tribute to Sniffa at work.

[Maestro]

89. Sniffa obsessed I see

My eyes are crossing! ;)

[catmandu57]

This is the entrance to the north rim of the grand canyon, we took it last fall.

[Maestro]

90. Beautiful!

I have never been to the Grand Canyon. I hope to go some day.
