sorry if this seems lame or in the wrong place ( it does involve graphic design though ;) )but I really get a kick out of looking at others desktops...also seems to inspire me to change it when I let mine stay the same for a long time....if you made yours I'd love to see it, and the same goes if you didn't...just please don't be using bliss xp...lol
my current mandrake/kde desktop:

Hey Michael, cool pic...what game is that from?
and Nerelda, looking forward to it :)
guess I'll post my windows desktop too...I'm a big Luis Royo fan (and tattoos & piercings) and had a little fun with a couple of his works in PS7 for this one...(censored since B might give me the boot ;) )

thanks, Nerelda! :D

flatiron__2.... surprised you're even using luna...most people that don't use a desktop pic are generally the same ones that have it set for best performance.

and JSKY...trying to be the only one on the planet using the olive theme?...lol...if I didn't use windowblinds I'd probably use silver but the green reminds me a little too much of baby $***...lol...cool pic though

and I agree with both of you, one thing windows has is alot of shortcuts to get what you want to open, no need for desktop clutter

Oooo! Thanks tictoc5150. Now I'm going to have to change the color. Never thought about the olive green and baby s***. LOL
At first I thought of posting one of my StyleXP themes, but I usually just run my normal desktop. Tho I do have two favorite Style XP themes that I do run alot. Of course, If everyone thinks of the olive green and baby s***
together, them maybe I am the only one running it. LOL

hey JSKY, sorry to point out the similarites in the color...lol... but hey, if you like it, thats all that counts....it's not like it smells like it!!!!!....lol

fllatiron_2..........yep, thats what I'd expect....I've tried not using themes but I spend alot of time in front of the computer (maybe too much) and need things to look cool.
there is a noticable improvement in performance when set like that though and can see why some would go without the eye candy.
