..desktop as in the virtual one with icons and a wallpaper etc

I prefer keeping my desktop clean as possible, especially with the new wallpaper I have. The new wallpaper I got today is 2 drawings an artist did - I simply re-sized them and slapped them into one image for my desktop.

1MB IMAGE: http://img486.imageshack.us/my.php?image=desktopol4.jpg

Little story on the wallpaper coming up, skip if you wish (it'll explain what the images are about though ).

Start with the right image:

The right image has a 17-year old lad called Gian. The puppy he's holding is his little brother (called Colin), who is infact a werewolf (hence the full moon). Gian is a vampire. According to the artist, Gian is singing a lullaby to his brother in this image.

Left image:

The left image we have 2 people. The person on the right you can probably spot easily (it's Gian), and on the right is his father, Francesco - he's also a vampire.

Yeah, I have something for vampires if you hadn't already noticed, and Gian is a character I really like (the artist even knows this, she said she was happy that I'm interested in her character - so she gave me a little bit of bio info about Gian and his father ).

Great artwork, R+. I like the anecdotes about the vampires and the werewolf. Sometimes I wonder if I don't have a puppy werewolf in the house myself

Or maybe the inverse, he is always werewolf except when it's a full moon

When its full moon the puppy changes into tutta, don't wanna be near when that happens

@Emily: Now you've said it, missy. Make sure tonight all your windows are closed, and doors are bolted. Or else... prepare to face the Hounds of Hell


On a lighter note Here is my desktop at home: http://i28.photobucket.com/albums/c2...bescreen-1.jpg

I knooow. Just a Windows stock background. But one that matches perfectly my upcoming holiday mood. Just like Rhizome, I like a desktop without much clutter. There's even double as many icons on it than I usually have. On the task bar:
* Ubuntu 6.10: That's the virtual machine running the Belgian Beer website and project.
* Rhizome: /me chatting with Rhizome

Oh, if the letters seem large compared to the screen: I use the large fonts setting on all my displays.

lol.. feeling deeply ashamed you don't want to see mine
All a mess..everything placed on the desktop. Btw: if I take a screenshot it'll be a huge file with a resolution of 1280 * 1024

Do you want a screenshot of all my vm's too ? I have 5 or six of them I'll turn on my beloved computer let's upload some megs!


Btw: @tutta.. havn't seen much people of my dad's age(no offence ) using msn

Well, I'm running it on 3 screens as we speak, fits perfectly.

CS: I used to be a fanatic, playing 10 hours a day in some of the larger belgian clans, always in the base lineup for wars. But now I play very occasionally, and get my a$$ kicked every damn time, .... it's not even funny !

[tokesnugerd]

Wich CS ? the good old 1.6 (1.5 is older ) or source ?

I play CS 1.6 and ehm, I s*ck sometimes I have a lucky day and make 3 HS after eachother But I'm not so fanatic, 4 hours/week is much I think

That BG is made for 2 screens only, when using a third it copies a part to the 3th I need a BG that fits my screen.. hmm, let's have a quick look
