Desktop Showcase!

I've been using Wallpaper Master recently, so I have a whole bunch of desktops, but here's the undisputed most awesome wallpaper in my possession. I made it myself! Well, I put the images together. I didn't draw it.

Ah ha! behold the beauty of simplicity!
in case you are wondering where i stash all my icons:

simplicity!

^ I think he refers to the absence of icons and other gadgets on the desktop, rather than to the background image. If Vista had something like KRunner or Do, I'd do away with icons on it too. Luckily Vista allows you to Alt-Tab onto the desktop, so it's not that bad for keyboard-users like me.

See how my Vista desktop looks like instead.

yeah, i meant the absence of icons. if you want the wallpaper, it's by dreamwa1ker on DA. he's done a whole bunch of awsmoe stuff.

I see I am not the only DOSbox user here. 

I use DOSBox too, old games rule.

For now I'm only using it to play the old God of Thunder game, which is now freeware. That reminds me... Should I make a topic about it in the Other free games? Sorry for being off-topic.

Yay! here are my current 2 desktops:

(the background is an ESO telescope picture of the horsehead nebula which I touched up a bit in Gimp)


right click on the pic and then select "view image" to see a bigger version.

Dude have you seen their faces???

Also, nice protoss icons 

Dude have you seen their faces???

I've been trying to find an image on the internets, and I've had no luck yet. I vaguely remember seeing an unmasked soldier in Nova Prospekt, but I just don't feel like replaying that chapter. Prospekt and Ravenholm aren't really...chapters...for me. Yeah.

I do know they've had their throats replaced with speakers or something like that. They're walking PA systems!

Also, nice protoss icons 

Thanks! I didn't make them, they're part of some age-old Protoss theme I used and I just never bothered changing them.

Mine is very... Mac like.

I also have a custom start menu and a dashboard, very similar to the Mac. The wallpaper cycles between the one shown and a blue version of it.
It is actually Windows 7 (its hard to tell).
