Dec '08 desktop thread
Desktop w/ a bunch of random stuff open to indicate widget themes (note QT4 smplayer w/ GTK theme)
Screenshot of all 4 virtual desktops in Compiz- killed off nautilus's desktop in order to have multiple wallpapers.
No idea if screenshots desaturated looking; I set compiz to desaturate colors slightly to compensate for my monitor's tendency to oversaturate them,

Fullsize of the last wallpaper this laptop is likely to see until I get my new machine in the next week or so.

According to wikipedia, "the Mohorovičić discontinuity is the boundary between the Earth's crust and the mantle."
According to Starbound, it's a problem solvable with enough combat drugs to turn you into the Incredible Hulk.

Running a duel monitor setup, one widescreen and one normal. Nice Trek pictures I've found over the years.

I had to resize it and thus have the black horizontal bars like Agent Fisher because the sizes they had don't play nice with my resolution.
