    Mine is just plain black. With a few icons on it. I just don't see the point myself, but some of these in the thread are nice! I like evilfantasy's.

    The title says it all - it's your second life. There's terrorism in it too, was in the paper a few months ago. I didn't like it personally, some people do though.

    Flashget is a download manager adn one I really now like more as its ad-free, comes in handy with large downloads as you can resume if connection or you wish to pause ( so long as server supports this but many do )

    I know I like interesting desktops... :)

    That it is. Something My mom planted. Some sort of a weird tulip w/ "teeth" lining all the petals... looks pretty cool. For some reason the only pictures of mine that turn out really good, at least IMO, are nature and the elements... not so good @ portraits... to each their own I guess.

    Thanks for putting up the explanation Halo.

    i tried a number of download managers and found Flashget to be the least complicated and most reliable

    boy you guys stay up late.

    i have a lot of icons up but most are just shortcuts to a 500MB external drive that i use so as not to slow down the PC too much.

    I never change mine. If anyone wants to see it ask, but if you've been here a while you've seen it. It is a tin tile on the ceiling from my lodge, quite a few of the other guys use it too.

    I think you're establishing a new record for the amount of different desktops in one week. ;)

    I knew a guy that had a program that changed the desktop every time the computer came up from hibernation. Kind of odd actually, both him and the computer :D

    Maybe I went somewhere I wasn't supposed to, saw your video of the squirrel, whew was on pins an needles when the cat took off.

    Thats so cool how you did the desktops :clap

    Darlene ,it is all public so you may look around anyplace you can navigate too.The cat is the oldest one and thats as close as she ever got to a squirl.

    Emms I set the photos to background, then moved some icons, then hit prt scr and saved in paint. I then went to " my pictures" and resized the pic to smallest size. Then I went to 'Photobucket' and downloaded it from images. when I had enuf downloaded I created a slideshow.then went dow to the bottom af page and generated an img code. After that I copied and pasted.
    I hope you got the drift of this short story I made long.:confused
