Everyone, take a snapshot of your computer's desktop and post it here! :D

This is mine. At the bottom you'll find th IdeaKnot program, iTunes, and others. I've got all my book's files in folders to the right (Winnower Book 1, etc), and at the top-left is where I keep all the critiques I give and receive by e-mail.

Yes, it's a Mac. :rolleyes:

Here's mine. The seven icons on the top-center are programs or links or whatever that I use a lot. The documents clustered near the center are all for EC. The two headings to the right of those are my post-it notes -- basically a to-do list and ideas for blog posts that I probably will never write. On the far right are documents concerning my next novel, and other miscellaneous ideas. The bottom row is dedicated to roleplay, and then everything else is random stuff that I want accessible.

My desktop background changes every two weeks, but you probably don't want more miscellaneous space/fantasy/nature/3D art, do you?

If you can make out the titles of some of those documents, you'll probably get spoilers.

PoP is on there because my sister wants to play it and mine is the only computer in the house that will run the program. :rolleyes:

Actually, PoP Warrior Within inspired a bunch of Nikara, so shush. :p

ANDREW HAS A DOCUMENT CALLED PIRATE SMILIES! YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY! :pirate:

(Oh and Imelda has SBS txt open, yay!!! :))

I played PoP once. But it was a long time ago, the very first one. In two dimensions!

Hahahahaha! I was wondering if you'd notice that. :P It's for Talk Like a Pirate Day, but that's several months away. I was bored...

Imelda's sort of creeps me out.

Car needs to be introduced to folders... :devious: I love the planetary background!

I have enough folders, thank you very much. In fact, I have folders inside folders inside folders. You just can't see them. Everything beyond my desktop is super-organized.

You found out on Wikipedia, did you not? :devious: Shaun will be angry.

Is that a Pirates game?!

GeorgeMichael
01-30-2008, 09:03 PM
lol, I did. Actually I googled it and Wiki was the page that I clicked on :)

Yeah, it's the online Pirates of the Caribbean game, it's free and it's like Runescape which I didn't like too much but I like this game, they're pirates! :)

How do you post pictures? I keep tying the button but it asks me for an URL . . .

EDIT: Talk like a pirate day is on my birthday! :pirate:

Imelda
01-30-2008, 09:22 PM
THERE'S A PIRATES GAME?! :eek:

:p

George, are you reading Twenty Years Later? That was better than the Three Musketeers, I thought. Great plot.

GeorgeMichael
01-30-2008, 09:32 PM
:) That's not a book, it's a chapter to one of my stories :)

Andy
01-30-2008, 09:36 PM
Oh my gosh! Is that image #118850162?! Why do you have that one? :D

All movies have a game, Imelda. It's an industry rule. Even if it's a terrible game based on a terrible movie, there HAS to be one. :)

GeorgeMichael
01-30-2008, 09:44 PM
you can play it here if you'd like Imelda :)

Wow, it's...........? :)

Where do you keep your files, then?

Carraka
01-30-2008, 10:21 PM
Somehow, Quietus, that isn't very surprising.

I'll join the Pirates game! Unless it sucks. Then I'll have to play something else.

Hehe, I know. I play video games a lot on my puter so it's best to keep the background plain.

Wow, it's...........? :)

Where do you keep your files, then?

They're all on the Start Menu and that area...

Take a screenshot. The button for it says: prt sc and it should be somewhere on the top row. I'll post my desktop later, right now I'm on my mom's pc.

you have to press Ctrl and the PrtSc button. If you have a laptop (like me) though it's probably not it's own button and in that case you should press the button "fn" which should be in a square and have blue coloring, and then search around for Prt Sc in a blue box as well. (mine was under "insert" So you're looking at your desktop then you hold down "fn" and click "Prt Sc" after that you just paste onto a word document or anything and you can upload it :)

I have used both vista and mac, and vista kills mac to no extent. But that is just my opinion on the subject. :D

Alex
01-31-2008, 12:09 PM

I know how to handle a mac... why did that sound sexual?

How can you upload the desktop (on the word doc) to here? The button asks for an URL . . .

You need to upload it to an image hosting site like photobucket. Then you copy the link they give you.

Use AVG, Shadow.

Shaun will scowl at me for suggesting it, but it's a quality program, and it's free. :D

Jessica
