We used to have a topic in the VS before where we could post pictures of our desktops and comment, and since all seems sooo slow to me on this site, I'm bringing it back again. So here's what the desktop on my settings here in my uni looks like. (I didn't make this design; I just found it on the net and edited the brightness and contrast - it was too light originally.)

Awesome symbol!

Do you know what it is or its significance?

That's the logo of one of my music obsessions, Héroes del Silencio =)
Awesome songs + great voice that's impossible to not love listening to + beautiful clear guitars sound.
Sadly they don't exist as a band any more though... U_U

This is my desktop at work (click to enlarge):




This is a night shot of Bristol Mountain, a ski resort about 45 minutes south of where I live. This is where I snowboard each winter.

I've been on most of the slopes on the left side of the image. (Those wide, straight ones in the center are super steep and fast...too fast for me. )

Wow that really looks great o_O So nice artistic shot, and it looks almost like a fantasy or sci-fi landscape!

This one is my desktop. Typical, eh? I used to have a Fullmetal Alchemist desktop, so this has actually been a recent change.

here's my new desktop pic

Okay heres mine. LOL I keep everything on my desk. Or I forget I have it. LOL. Almost the whole left side is my games and FAQs. This is one of the reasons I like backpacking. Getting to see places like this.

Ally that's a great picture! Uhhh but I could never have my desktop like this, I somehow prefer to have there as few icons as possible XD And all files ordered in their proper folders but not on the desktop

Purple - Great drawing, I love it! It's always specially nice to see the scenes and characters from the comic coloured ^__^

Hmmm, I have had the same desktop for a long time now. I changed it for a bit to Mohinder from Heroes. *drools* I love him so. But then changed it back to this:

Click me

I'm such a goth. >.<

So you have a Heroes love too Myth But I see it's different ones than mine XD
Nice scenery you have there though; did you take the picture? Where is it?

Luz: The comic is in color now, since Chapter five started.

I'm about to change my desktop to this: http://i8.photobucket.com/albums/a30/ ... er_lilac/kittens-1600.jpg

I tend to change quite frequently until I find something that I really really really like. Then I tend to keep that wallpaper for a while.

@Indy: it's a photo I took myself a couple of years ago. I used to live near a grave yard and I would go in there and take photos from time to time.

It's Waikumete Cemetery which is in West Auckland. Apparently the second largest cemetery in the Southern Hemisphere.

Luz_Melian
the symbol is really cool

Argoyle
The bright paths on the mountain seem to lose some height, but it is still a neat picure

LaraCroft
Who are the guys?

Oracle
That is a beautiful picture.

Mythra
That is a good picture

Puplefire
Both are cute backgrounds.

Wow, Purple, I haven't checked your progress on your comic for so long! That's awesome that it's in colour now! I surely must catch on on what I have missed =) Going to start with it already today!

The cemetery looks cool, Myth. I like specially big old ones that have lot of trees/plants and lot of statues, there is one in my city quarter that I really like because it's on a shadowy place with lot of trees, so even in hot summer it's pleasantly cool there, and also because of the beautiful statues that are there.


Silvermist - you should check out the great songs actually, they are even cooler than just the symbol

Purple, I've finally caught up with your comic update and wooooooow the colored versions are sooooo beautiful! Great job! It's awesome that you now take the effort to make them in color because the result is wonderful.
Everyone who hasn't seen the comic yet, go to the link in Purple's siggy, go see it noooooow!

I just don't get it how you guys take screenshots of your desktop. What do I have to do?

Press PrintScreen (keyboard) on your desktop, open a drawing program (paint will do), press Ctrl + V and you're done.

Aveyond06: thanks a lot


This is my current desktop. I usually don't have so many files opened at the same time
