Show us your...desktop!
« on: March 12, 2015, 11:01:03 pm »
This was an ancient tradition back in the Clan Mac Addict forums. All us UT players would sit around the forum campfire, showing our desktops. Some folks had custom UI features and it would spur others to check into them too. Others would have unique screenshots or art as their backgrounds. But no matter what you posted, you got the chance to see through the eyes of your opponents for a moment. Was usually a constant stream of conversations that would spring up. Almost about as much as the rig listing threads.

So anyway, try to keep it PG-13. I only say that because there was folks back then who posted near X rated backgrounds and kept the moderators busy.

Laptop's desktop. Why even have anything on the desktop. Unfortunately, my browser is not as clean as my desktop so I have multiple windows open, each with more than necessary tabs.

ahahaha this is my desktop, a week after I dumped all the shit on my desktop into a folder that I will probably never ever sort through because I literally ran out of space on my desktop. It was just starting to put stuff outside the viewable range. I should consider smaller icons  :P

Just filled with random stuff and mainly pictures that should one day go into the wiki and in-game calculations. Everyone had such tidy backgrounds, this is the other side of the coin. Also, important to note that the picture in the background is a result of D.lo-res drawing what I told her would be "me laying naked in a pile of cats.". Here's a picture without all the clutter -
