    mine keeps changing. on hot days of summer I post winter weather.
    when I miss children to the point of distraction I post pictures of my grandchildren.
    when I am worried about Dom or Raymond I have their pictures.
    Right now I have one of my husband with a rifle over his shoulder. He would not like me to post it here since it shows his pot belly. But I love him too much to care and his face is just something I love to see.

    New Background

    Joba Chamberlain, one of my favorite players, has been on bereavement leave all week. I miss watching him go out there and strike people out, so I decided to put him up on my background.

    New Desktop

    I've changed my desktop. I added some new anti-spyware and updated my anti-virus, along with updating windows; so I had to restart my computer. I always have to close all of my programs whenever I do that so I cleaned up my computer a bit when I did and I decided to add a new desktop and change the colors along with the entrance avatar.

    As a Bio Conservation major...I know this is dorky. But two of my favorite animals happen to be otters and pandas. In fact, I have several WWF (World Wildlife Fund) T-shirts that (I admit) I bought initially for the panda logo. But I was VERY pleased to know I was still helping a good cause while feeding my addiction.

    it's called 'home' and i wish it was!... reminds me of my years rv-ing all over the southwest [plus north, south, east, west of both us and canada!] and my best-of-all time living with the hopi, though this seems to be an adobe in taos or abiquiu, new mexico...

    Nope. It doesn't show an image. What a waste of time this is. I should be writing.

    It's simple. :) First, press Print Screen (or PrnScr on some keyboards) to copy the screen, then open a photo editor (Paint etc). Paste the screen there (Ctrl + V, or Edit -> Paste) and save the image. Now go to the forum, click Insert Image -> From Computer -> Select Files and, um, select the file. Click Upload, and there you go. :) The picture will be small, but we can click it to get a bigger version.

    More people need to be cool like me and clutter their desktop with random files. Though mine has gotten much cleaner over the years. At least I no longer use it as my download folder...

    Let's give this a try then. If I did this correctly, it should show my slightly cluttered desktop with the always handsome Hatake Kakashi protecting it :p

    This is what came with my Macbook Pro and I haven't changed it because I quite like it. :)

    I really enjoy the new Wonder Woman comics, so naturally she's on my desktop too. :)

    Now this is what you call uncluttered! (For the life of me I can't quite work out how to remove the Recycle Bin icon. Certainly, I'm being dumb. Perhaps someone might tell me? :redface:)

    On Win7: Right-click the desktop, select Properties, then Manage Desktop Icons (or something like that; I use a Norwegian version of Win 7) and uncheck the recycle bin. Not sure how it's done on WinXP and Vista, but I assume it's something similar. ;)

    Here is mine. Not much to the desktop. I've had busier ones over the years, mostly with Conky.
