See that Drac found his missing folder and what he has as his desktop pic, I though it might be fun to see what others have on their desktop. Here's mine. Taken from www.yesworld.com.

gillbrookes! he's a hunk..LOL... changes as frequently as my moods! Times, can be images me working on..or .. images and photos that appeal to me, or even scans of Calvin and Hobbes or Snoopy, or the guy I have a crush on! ;) Me in a dreamy mood..homesick for the place I left my heart in..so the past few days..it's been Dominica. Inspires me a helluva lot..and what with the weather in India being a furnace, it's cooling to think of the beach. And yeah..it is black sand..it's a volcanic island.

Having this little lady popping up always startles me awake in the morning. It`s a wolf spider from Arizona. (No unfortunately I haven`t been, the spider came in the mail, courtesy of an arachnological pal) and it`s still one of my favourite pics. And it`s got my name at the bottom in case I forget that. :O) The few program icons I have are on the quick launch bar on auto hide.

Kinda obvious, but I like it cos I'm a land-art sculptor. So every time I think whatever it is I'm working on is getting too big.......I take a look at my desktop and work twice as big!

Usually the last image I have finished, and want to check it out for a day or so before deciding if its worth while.

This is the work machine..I change it every day with something from 'rosity (unless it's something from 3d shop or the Bryce Forum Select Gallery..er, never mind).. had to go back and do this, since my email tab showed my full name..IT security might have a problem with that..;)

A custom reworked lemonjim image. I wanted to add a 3d figure to it in such a way that it would blend seamlessly into his 2d posted image, shadows and all as appropriate (no-postwork). It worked out wonderfully.

Pass no temptation lightly by, for one never knows when it may pass again!

Mine is black and boring comapred to these. I don't have a picture and just have my computer, network, my documents and a recycle bin and occasionally the picture I'm doing postwork to. I won't bother posting a picture, I don't want to put you all to sleep.

this is what my home looks like.

I'm at work right now, this is the family baby, her name is Kyla. And yes, my desk top always looks this bad. My desktop at home is still standard windows, been having so much trouble figuring out whats wrong with the pc, that I haven't bothered to put up a desk top image. LOL, reformatting the harddrive always seems to get rid of any wallpapers I put up.

Damia posted Mon, 26 April 2004 at 12:30 PM

Mine also changes all the time. Right now I am loving Springtime. I was really into making themes for a while and this one I did last spring. The center is from a greeting card and the rest is mine. I also made a screensaver to match.

Mine is pretty sterile at the moment. I only change the picture a few times a year.

Could be worse, could be raining.

tjohn posted Mon, 26 April 2004 at 6:11 PM

I usually keep my latest work there until I get sick of it or something else catches my eye. A lot of clutter, I know, but pretty much everything I actually use is in the top half of the right side. :^)

right now I've got an old photo I took in Bern, but I change my desktop once or twice a month, the pictures can come from anywhere, really.

Wadus posted Mon, 26 April 2004 at 7:58 PM

This has been my desktop for a while, so I'll probably change it soon. I hate icons on the desktop so I dont have any. I have the taskbar and Object Dock set to autohide...

miden1138 posted Mon, 26 April 2004 at 10:05 PM

Sheesh!! My desktop is a mess compared to most of yours! I got one of Hobbit's pics. Funny thing is, I was thinking of changing it today after seeing Drac's.

pakled posted Mon, 26 April 2004 at 10:23 PM

@miden1138..I want your software budget..;) Usually to busy renderin' to actually put something on there..a real puzzler since I have over ***9,000*** pics on the hard drive! go figure..;)

I used to put my own images up as my wallpaper, but I've grown weary of my own work. I bought a guitar today so I had to put it on my desktop ;-)

Yea, looks like Miden's got all the goodies. No fair :-(

miden1138 posted Mon, 26 April 2004 at 11:20 PM

@ Pakled and Doug, Don't get too excited. Most of the stuff that I have is either freeware, learning editions, or demos that don't time out. Or in the case of 3DS Max, a demo that has timed out that I simply haven't found the time to delete from the HD. I still have 23 saves left on my demo copy of Rhino 3, and I'm hoarding those until I get a lot more practice! Learning editions are great, they let you use the really expensive software for nothing. You can get 3DS Max (G-Max), Maya (Maya PLE), and even Softimage (Softimage XSI Experience). Someone else has one too, I just can't for the life of me remember who. Just check out their websites and you too can (sorta') use the software of the big boys.

miden1138 posted Mon, 26 April 2004 at 11:22 PM

Just remembered!! Thanks Pakled, it's kind of on your desktop. Truespace has one--Gamespace.

Strangely enough, I still haven't gotten sick of the old John Carter challenge I did a while back. I think it's still in the Bryce challenge archives somewhere - although no one else voted for it there's something I personally like about it. Before that, I rotated Dave Mann posters and for a few days I even used a photo of T'Pol from "Enterprise" (Jolene Blalock) that I got from startrek.com. BTW: UPN may be getting rid of that series. Last I heard they were letting people vote whether to take it off or not . . . I'm afraid to go look at the results as I think that I am in the minority when I say the show should continue . . . A spooky thought a collouge(sp?) of all my most favorite Bryce artists might be in order; I might run into copyright issues though if it ever got off ol' Hal 2 (that's my computer's name - I'm so glad I'm not Dave.) - TJ

This is my current desktop. I'll probably change the picture soon. I use two monitors but it would not give me a picture when using both of them.

What a sad-looking lot. Imagine how it feels to be half-clad in a crowd of 40 or 50, trying to retain some sense of dignity, identity or self-esteem.
