Show off your desktop!

I'm running Ubuntu Feisty Fawn herd 4. I haven't used a Linux distribution in a long time, but now that I have Beryl running (along with pretty much everything else), I don't think any other operating system holds a candle to its looks.

You haven't tried SabayonLinux yet ;-) Wait until the end of the month though.. they should be releasing 3.3 then.

Whats with the different res on the pics? different res on the monitors?

Something must've happened when they were uploaded. They should be the same size.

The forum has it's own uploading system that has a lower threshold than imageshack... and no ads/resizing. You may wish to give it a try sometime ;-)

I will keep this thread alive if it's the last thing I do!

And to think their new album is finally almost out. It was last January when they first announced it... so it's really about time.

Changes so often. Here's the latest:

My Humble Tiger Desktop

You haven't tried SabayonLinux yet ;-) Wait until the end of the month though.. they should be releasing 3.3 then.

Most times I love to deck out my desktop with cool OSX Tiger themes, but for some reason lately I simply prefer the simplicity of the simple desktop. Main desktop is Tiger 4.9 and just loving it.

I used to love using Window Blinds on XP, but sadly, I was too cheap to pay for the shareware version. Hmmmmm.... could I be an open source guy?

 

[Rob Williams]

I hear you. I refuse to buy WindowsBlinds. Call me cheap. It's a great program, but I don't need Windows-themes that badly.

+1 for you for the Nikon icons.

 

[MacMan]

Ahhh, the simple desktop...

Ahhh, the simple desktop... how I love thee. Hopefully, Rob, you can see those beautiful Niko icons (oh, what a beautiful camera ) better here, they are in 16 million byt color and look just like the real thing. I get a lot of icons from interfacelift. They originally offered Mac icons only, but now have Window icons for Vista and XP. I use the old address: www.xicons.com Check em out!.

Psst.... Check out the Uxtheme Multi-patcher. Then find and apply .msstyle files manually. Free, looks great, and is much faster than WindowBlinds and/or other third-party items chewing on one's RAM.

 

[MacMan]

Thanks, will do.

Thanks BlindMonk, will try later. I love about a million of the Window Blind themes, so being able to apply themes Free would be fantastic. Wish it also worked on Windows Professional 2000 too. I have that also and I really find it fast and stable.

 

[Rob Williams]

Thanks BlindMonk, I'm curious enough to try that out later.

Hah, I will check it out. You need to upgrade those icons though, each one of those cameras have had upgrades (F6/D2Xs/D200)

 

[Greg King]

I am so frickin' boring with my desktop. In both XP and Vista, I simply set my background to black. I place most of my icons in my quick launch bar so there are very few icons on my desktop. I like it clean like that.

"Good morning Greg and welcome to the Void."

Or maybe that quote by Nietzsche or somesuch; something like, "When you look into the abyss, the abyss looks into you."
