Post your Desktop pic

[blueczarina]

What are you currently parading?

Here’s mine today, along with a link for anybody who’s new to it:

[blueczarina]

haha, your computer looks like a CD.

i wonder how many of us have SP related desktops. here is mine.

[bullettwoutbutterflywings]

mine is nothing interesting, wish it was, but my husband won’t let me put pretty pics up on the desktop. yours is nice though dazey.

[blueczarina]

you can’t decorate your desktop- thats lame.

[bullettwoutbutterflywings]

tell me about it, lame-o city. i like your clock czarina. it is too cute. i think i am gonna get the other computer hooked up upstairs and make that one mine. i have to get the router out of a box though. and find a new monitor. ugh, i forgot about that.

[Marcella]

Here’s mine, it might seem familiar.

[blueczarina]

i like my clock too. its cute.

you should have your own computer bullet.

i like you desktop Marcella- i love that painting.

i think i’m going to change my desktop pic. i’ve had the same one forever.

[Marcella]

Blue, we both have Vista. We’re awesome.

[blueczarina]

ok, here is my new one. i’ve been meaning to change it for awhile- get something with more color.

[Superlordspamulon]

[blueczarina]

haha, looks like stickman is having a hard time.

i’m still looking for another desktop pic. i don’t know what i want.

[Superlordspamulon]

Well, what are you looking for?

Cute? Colourful? Dark? Epic? Funny?

[blueczarina]

i don’t know. something different- non SP, more color, maybe Russian themed, pretty. i just found this pretty picture from some Russian movie or something for the fairytale Ruslan and Lyudmila. i think i;m going to use this for awhile. i like Russian stuff and the pic is pretty.

[bullettwoutbutterflywings]

that looks weird, but neat, what is with the food? i like fairy’s myself, when i have my own computer i will probably have fairy’s.

[Anonymous]

The crystal look pretty awesome too. I just noticed them…cool desktop

[Marcella]

Ohh it does look very pretty. I’m in my Van Gogh phase; I’m going to focus on his paintings if I ever want to change mine.

You still got both ears I hope?

Beautiful screens you got, guys! I’m having my gf as the background of my desktop, a nice pic I shot of her when we visited a medieval Dutch castle a few years ago. I’ll ask her if she doesn’t mind me showing it here…

[Marcella]

I think I do, but I’m known for having sudden outbreaks of slight insanity.

[Arthur]

[/quote:3uki2q3i]
Yeah, I noticed that.

[blueczarina]

for those of you wondering about my desktop pic. its from a movie for Ruslan and Lyudmila. i havn’t seen it though, i just found the pic. basically though its this epic poem by Aleksandr Pushkin, which was also made into an opera by Mikhail Glinka.

here is a translation of it. its super long and is set in old Kievan Rus. it also references several other old folk/ fairy tales like the witch Baba Yaga with her chicken legged house.

http://russian-crafts.com/tales/rus_lud.html

and it is kind of a different pic, but i like the sparkliness of it with the crystals and the colors. its kind of pearlescent looking.

[Arthur]

Here’s my desktop. It’s like this for quite a while already, as I love this early pic of my girlfriend.

[Marcella]

That is so sweet! She’s really pretty, Arthur =).

[bullettwoutbutterflywings]

i think you should use the suclly mulder one where they are gonna kiss.
i love the x-files, my favorite one i think is the cops one, where all that wierd stuff was happing on a full moon, or halloween, maybe it was friday the 13th, can’t remember the date, but i loved that one.

can’t wait to see the movie

arthur……………..she looks super extra pretty in that pic.

[Anonymous]

nice job Arthur-she’s beautiful!!!
what is she standing by?
I give her a ‘SMASHING’ for a smashing outfit!!!

i totally agree

she’s smashing !

[Anonymous]

She could teach D’arcy a thing or 2 about jean jackets (refer to the smashing fashion board).

[Arthur]

what is she standing by?[/quote:fnflwwr8]
Oh wow guys, thanks! Didn’t expect all these nice reactions!

But yeah, I have nothing to complain, that’s for sure. Funny thing is, I got attracted to her almost 3 years ago because she has this silly humour (she has this t-shirt that says "I love my attitude problem!" for example, I always found that awesome! …must have a pic of that somewhere, if she agrees I will post it here) and she loves loud music too, like Mars Volta and System Of A Down. And a fair bit of Pumpkins too of course…

She is standing next to a display of a very old map of the Netherlands, in the medieval castle of Muiderslot close to Amsterdam.

[Marcella]

I agree with the above, she’s got great style! Gotta love the scarf. Amsterdam seems so pretty-I’m definitely visiting someday. Some faaaar away day.

[Danni]

Lots of albums here…..

[some pumpkins]

cool thread. here’s mine

[Anonymous]

here’s a dumb question..How do you take a picture of your desktop? what button do I push? I’m on a windows vista if that matters
Thanks

[Superlordspamulon]

"Print Screen"

Usually located above "Insert"

Once print screened, go to image editing application of your choice (MSpaint is all you really need for this) and press Ctrl+V. Then save.

took me forever to figure it out. from the desktop view, push the print screen button. then open up a picture program, like paint. from the program, go to edit and select paste. there it is. then you have to save it.

[Marcella]

My keyboard says \"PRTSC\" and is located right beside the F1-12 buttons. Look for similar letters.

Edit: Whoa, fast typers.

[Anonymous]

my key board only has F1-F12 no words around it. Oh it’s a dell keyboard? does that help?

[Marcella]

http://www.sigonlegacy.com/wp-content/u … -front.jpg if If it’s similar to this keyboard then it should be located above the Insert key.

[blueczarina]

great desktops guys and a very busy one manilla

here is mine. i haven’t changed it for quite awhile. i love the pic. plus the image fit perfect.

[Marcella]

Can’t stop staring at my new one!

[blueczarina]

that’s a cool pic Marcella

[mr.benway]

@manilla: you should clean up your desktop

So should you! I mean, who uses the MSN installer?

[manillascissor]

yeah, i always throw everything on there, so i can find it all in one place. it’s a mess, just like my real desktop!

[amnesia]

What dark side? The ‘MSN’ program it installs is utterly pointless. That shortcut is actually just a wast of space, as is what it links to.

[Anonymous]

my desktop picture is somewhere on my pc..i can’t find it after I supposedly take the screen shit..
SO anyways, it of greenery and a waterfall

[blueczarina]

[Marcella]

[Return To Comfort]

Nevermind, waaaaay too compicated just to show people whatever pic I have up on a particular day.

[blueczarina]

After a long while enjoying the desktop pic that I got from Superlordspamulon, I changed it.

(yes, I let my taskbar automatically hide itself while I’m working… )

[blueczarina]

[manillascissor]

look up near your function keys, even higher than those. if you push ctrl on mine it will capture the screen.

[jawn till dusk]

cant believe i missed that!

nothing happens,though!

[marigold]

i have this as my background at the moment

[Arthur]

Good one, Debby! Still working well these days, this type of artwork, if you ask me.

Which reminds me I wanted to post mine also. It’s a pic I made at Bonaire, which I’m using as my desktop now. Note how I renamed \"My Computer\" and \"Recycle Bin\"…

[blueczarina]

i like your desktop as well Debby. and that’s a neat pic Arthur and those names made me laugh.
