Post your Desktop!

Ok, I've seen many, many, many other forums do this, so I figured I'd bring it to GT. (If a mod/admin feels this is not a good idea, then sorry)

Basically, you do what the title says... Post your Desktop!

If you have no idea how to do this...
1. In order to take a screenshot of your desktop, press Print Screen(top right corner of your keyboard). Then open Paint(or a similar program), and paste it there. Then save.
2. Then you gotta upload it. Go to a site like http://imageshack.us, or http://photobucket.com, and upload your picture.
3. Then post it here. Post the image URL, and put the around it.

IF YOU HAVE A DESKTOP THAT CONTAINS ANY INNAPROPRIATE MATERIAL, PLEASE DO NOT POST IT

Now, lets get down to business...
My Current Desktop

The quality is low, 'cuz it's a .JPG screenie, and it got resized, so... :P

Post away!

Actually, it's from the Bungie website, I don't have access to Halo 2 vista's inner workings, lol.

I wish I did though.

:D I hate it when I have lots of icons. If I have more than 1 row of icons, I freak :D

@t551t551 - You and I are the only ones who use the Windows Classic Theme :D I like it waaay more than the Windows XP themes :P

@swbf_lase - Wow. That's a really nice background you got there...

@arty - You sure do have a lotta games :P I have about 5 good games. The rest are on my GameCube :D And soon, my Wii.

Yeah, I really like the way that it looks much better, and it gives you custom color combinations.

One other thing, I messed around with my folder options to make all of my folder backgrounds a nice shade of grey... none of this eye-killing white.

Ahh. I hadn't thought of that! Very nice idea! 'Cuz if you go to a folder view to a dark view like GameToast, it really hurts the eyes :P

Gah, how can you stand that?? That would drive me crazy... Not because it's freaky, but it's dizzying! :? :P

VERY sweet screenie. Though, the amount of icons could be reduced. And, you should really change the theme :D
I'm a critic :wink:

Wow, LoL. Looks like I need a serious cleanup of my desktop. It's so full that I've created an extra folder named 'Desktop 2' where I've stuck a bundle of files, and my screen is still filled up! I'll post a screeny when I've gone and had a spring clean on it :D. Nice shot by the way Hebes.
