Nothing but the default wallpaper? Erm, what's the point in posting it then? :wtf:

Well, even the lack of interest in changing the desktop image can also say something about its user, like laziness in look for good wallpaper images, for instance...!

That screen is just a tad out of date; I updated to IE7 a bit after I took the screenshot.

Ok... desktop thread rules...

1. You must post the source of the desktop if asked, unless the desktop is one that you paid for. (Donation reward desktops, et al).

2. You must not break the thread formatting. (no bigger of an image than 800x600). There's a number of images being posted, no need to be a dick.

3. You post in here, you post your desktop at least once.

That said, le desktop:

And this is my desktop at home. It's one of a number I rotate between. All of them I created myself. I need to create more, as I'm starting to tire of the ones I have. Heh.

And, at home, I'm running Windows 2000. So nyah!

My Desktop

Well here's my desktop. Almost everything I use is in my start menu hence the clean desktop. I like to be able to see my wallpapers.

Just the usual, although this is a new computer.

Clicking on should give a 1280x1024 version.

This one's my current desktop. I've had it since December. I don't really use the start menu so I auto hide it. The second image is the actual desktop image. It's best at 1024 x 800. Any bigger it distorts quite significantly.

Apartment desktop (Not Work Safe!) I just like it because of it comes into focus when I turn on my moniter after a rough day of university. Try it, look at the desktop, turn off your monitor, wait like ten seconds and turn it back on. It's very nice.
Don't suppose there's a full version of the apartment desktop? And more importantly, who's the chick in the background? :D
