This is my current, it changes every few weeks though.


Oh yeah, and all of you who still have Internet Explorer... you should be ashamed of yourselves. See that "Mozilla Firefox" icon on a lot of these? That's what you should be using. *glares at Dakarne*

*glares back*

By the way, I don't really like Firefox, it links through Google, which is a billion times worse than Internet Explorer...

I don't use Google, and I'm perfectly fine with IE... I wonder why that is.

Regardless: Charon, that woman in your picture is wearing too much :lol:

I don't like Google... and Firefox usually resets your homepage to Google (look at the bloody browser) since Google carries as much Adware and Spyware than a browse through Lycos...

The only problems I've ever had with IE are usually concurrent with use of Google... I stopped using it and switched to Yahoo... now I don't have a single bloody problem with Adware or Spyware...

But then again, that's just common sense for you

I have the IE icon but it goes unused. I just haven't removed it yet since it's still a fairly semi-new install(hence the clean desktop :wink:). But I have the latest version of Opera installed and that's what I use.

Minimise all your windows, so that the desktop is in display. Press 'print screen' which is a key that should be next to F12 on the keyboard. Then open up 'microsoft pain' in your Start> Programs>Accessories folder. Once it's open hit ctrl-v and your desktop should be on there as a screenshot. Save it as a .jpeg file, and then upload to a imagehosting site. If you don't have an imagehosting account, email it to me and I'll host it for you.

Thanks Chris!! I knew about the print screen option, but was sitting there with it saved to My Docs, feeling like a moron, and going, umm...okay, what do I do now?

I will snag you later and pester you until you cry mercy ;)

My desktop is far too filthy to show right now(in the middle of one project, and haven't cleaned up from two previous), but this is what my desktop image used to be. It's 1280x1024, so I linked instead.

Pardon my ignorance but how do you take a pic of your desktop again? I've done it before but it's been so long I can't remember. I remember something about pushing the print screen button but it wont do anything when I press the button. Keep in mind I'm on a laptop if that makes any difference. Please help?

Print screen key(should be around top right) open your image program(paint), paste, save as a JPG then upload.

Thanks Ace, You always come to my rescue :razz:

Here is mine.. On the laptop of course, I know I'm so silly :lol: But it's just nice for me to look at because it reminds me of how much I love my husband when things get rough.

BTW I drew that all by myself in paint, aren't I a great draw'er? :grin: :lol:

Wait...repeate that, with facts? I have Opera set to report ANY changes of any setting, and Google does nitwit.
