Post Your Desktop! [56k Warning: Large images]

As some of you may have guessed, in this thread we post our desktops. Simple concept.

For those of you who aren't sure how to do this, go to your desktop, hit 'Print Screen' (this won't print your screen), which should be right next to scroll lock. Then just open paint and hit 'ctrl-v' to paste.

You can host your image on servers such as www.imageshack.us/index.php. Then, just post here. Easy.

Question for anyone in this thread:

Which do you like more (assuming your using XP): Classic style (i.e. grey, square close/max/min buttons, etc.), XP style, or other.

Just curious.

For me, it's "other": Mac-style! w00t!

Now my desktop takes some explaining. I am a student at The Ohio State University. And we sometimes have riots after our game against our rival michigan. The background image is of the 2002 riots, when cars were flipped and burned.

The fellow in the foreground holding the molotov cocktail is Bill Hall, our director of Student Relations. He is noted for telling us not to riot (which I won't, not gonna risk my college education.) The irony of the image is so beautiful to me.

http://img76.exs.cx/img76/5258/MyDesktop4.jpg

I made this pic in MS Paint, simply to get the pixellation and bad cutouts around Bill Hall's head. It was important that I get it that way. I needed it to look crazy.
