tasty` Posted April 6, 2011 Report Share Posted April 6, 2011 I've noticed something many "nerds" have in common is their fondness for customizing and tweaking their desktops. I enjoy making new combinations every once in a while so show off your work and style.I used the basic enigma skin for rainmeter, rocketdock, and a black burberry wallpaper from deviantart Quote [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Level 2 Human Adventurer My Bucket List/Epic Quest || Tasty's Reckoning: Becoming Bane | Str: 6 | Dex: 5.75 | Sta: 5 | Con: 5 | Wis: 10 | Cha: 7 | Link to comment
CokeCanNinja Posted April 7, 2011 Report Share Posted April 7, 2011 I use the family computer so I can't tweak it that much. When I get my own computer soon I'll mod it out like crazy. Quote Nerd? We prefer the term INTELLECTUAL BADASS!!! Link to comment

Junglizer Posted April 7, 2011 Report Share Posted April 7, 2011 I keep mine very clean.I am also a fan of the clean/simple desktop. I usually use fluxbox on Linux, and if you're up for it, you might check out BlackBox for Windows: http://www.bb4win.org/news.phpI have it on at least one system that's running XP. Just the background, window bar, and iconified items. Virtual desktops and you right click w/ the mouse for your menu. Quote "Tomorrow = Never" Twitter | Thingist | Challenge | Squad Link to comment
inferiormadbeing Posted April 8, 2011 Report Share Posted April 8, 2011 I love the stuff from SimpleDesktops, it's not cluttered and is just plain and simple. How much time do you spend looking at your desktop anyway?This is what mine currently looks like (in teeny tiny scale due to weird upload):[ATTACH=CONFIG]259[/ATTACH] Quote Link to comment
Junglizer Posted April 8, 2011 Report Share Posted April 8, 2011 Here's what mine frequently looks like ;D Quote "Tomorrow = Never" Twitter | Thingist | Challenge | Squad Link to comment
Gowaduv Posted April 8, 2011 Report Share Posted April 8, 2011 this is centered with a wide black border. I have a bunch of folders on my desktop because I hate digging for things I use all the time. My work machine (where I am now) is just a boring ass blue background... like the machine is prepping for a BSOD :\[ATTACH=CONFIG]260[/ATTACH]OK the supid image won't post any larger, click to see a bigger version.

Raincloak Posted April 10, 2011 Report Share Posted April 10, 2011 I had to check to see my desktop picture. It's buried under a swarm of folder icons, as usual. When I download something I normally save it to the desktop and shelve it later, but sometimes I forget to put it somewhere. I have no idea how to post pics (too lazy to figure it out right now), but it's a picture of a gorgeous silver Maine Coon cat walking in snow. I want a kitty and I always liked Maine Coons (they're made in America, big, smart, rugged and gorgeous - just like I want to be, only I'm not that big for my species , but due to current housing situation, I can't get a cat. Even when I get a cat, it sure as hell won't be a purebred unless I find one abandoned at a shelter (which does happen). Till then, I will have to content myself with goldfish and other people's dogs... Quote Every saint has a past, and every sinner has a future. Hylian Assassin 5'5", 143 lbs.
