Sometimes I wonder why I have a wallpaper. I barely look at my desktop.
who knows where my picture is from
lmbo
Bit of variation.
I’m using this picture as my desktop wallpaper.
I guess its NSFW, but I don’t really give a shit…
Naked Obama wrestling a bear with a unicorn assist with my desktop icons strategically placed to cover his bare-ass.
Shit, with 4scrape down I’ve basically lost my favorite wallpaper site ever [even though I barely found out about it a few months ago]. Does anyone have any other wallpaper sites of similar quality that 4scrape was able to provide? I think I need a new wallpaper. I’m still using this graffiti wallpaper which I posted a few pages back.
I like your style, nee-san.
Try Zixpk, Interfacelift, and Desktoptography - that’s where I get most of mine.
Anyway, here’s mine. It was a summer project of mine to get this desktop setup going, it’s made with a few programs, mainly Rocketdock and Rainmeter.
Starting from the top left, going clockwise:
- A small RSS feed reader, for webcomics.
- A larger RSS feeder, for News/Blogs
- Launchy, a small program that lets you search for files anywhere on your PC from your desktop. Really easy for when I feel too lazy to make a bunch of clicks. It’s usually hidden until I need it though.
- A calender, in big 'ol bulky style.
- Weather feed, 3 day forecast for my hometown. However, it looks kinda bad because I forgot to give it enough space for the calender when the month’s name is longer :lol:
- Slideshow, with a bunch of wallpapers / pictures I like, but won’t really use as desktop backgrounds
- To do list, which you can change at will
- Quote of the day feed from Google
- Misc. PC stats (CPU, RAM, Power, Hard drive space, IP, DL/UL speeds
- Link to my HDD (which currently isn’t here so it’s not showing any stats. Normally it shows the space left
- A Clock / winamp playlist display, shows you the song name / time left, and I hooked up minilyrics to go below it so I can get lyrics if I feel like singing along.
- CD Art display to show the album art/other info, rating, and playlist controls
- Rocketdock, with links to pretty much every part of my computer and a few programs I use on a daily basis. This also stays hidden until I need it, I just brought it up for the sake of the pic.
- Oh yeah, there’s also a background picture in there too :lol:
This is probably one of the geekiest things I’ve done, but I’d be a liar to say I’m not proud of it.
ehehehe
just running xp but love making my shit look like 98, icons included
Nice desktop, but stop listening to Dragonforce :rolleyes:
Hey man, Dragonforce is the hardest metal known to man.
Harder than even diamond. :wgrin:
EDIT: Suppose I may as well post my desktop once again. Minor changes since last time, namely a re-writing of my Rainmeter weather skin to use AccuWeather instead of weather.com.
I need to get around to learning how gadgets work in Win7 so I can migrate over to it. It’s a lovely OS, it’s just that anything you stick to the desktop won’t show up in Aero if you hit “show desktop” - or more relevantly if you use Aero Peek.

Yessssssss. I’m such a hype man for Launchy. Alt+Space, SRK, enter. Story of my life. hahah
I’m about to start messing with Rainlendar and stuff, too. I’ve been meaning to format my hard drive and make some insane setup with unnecessary mods on my dual monitors. But I’m too basic of a dude to do much. I don’t even have icons on my desktop. 
Installed Win7 RC on my gaming tower this past weekend. Great stuff, can’t wait for it to hit retail.

RTM is out already, though chances are if you didn’t know that then you won’t have a code for it.
The problem with Launchy is that it takes up a huge amount of system resources, and I mean mostly processing power. Since it has to constantly index through your files, your cpu is always working harder, mine was around 50-60% all the time.
Rainmeter is kinda the same way, and it’s also hella annoying. You can’t make it not start up on desktop as there isn’t an option to. This is just some of the general features it’s lacking.
