Post Your Desktop "Background screenshot"

Here is my updated desktop:

That's funny. That's one of the wallpapers I was considering for mine.

Found a theme pack I'll give a try for a little while. Don't know how much I like it though.

EDIT: Yeah, I didn't like it. I went back to stock Windows.

Yeah I don't like that theme either. Nice wallpaper, horrible theme. :/

Here's mine at the moment. Photo of Central London from that website which you recommended, Travis.

Yeah thanks Wolfe, it sits on my second screen and I glance over at it every now and then. I used to have those 'All CPU Meter', 'All GPU Meter' and 'All Drive Meter' gadgets too which I see you are using now. ;)

Personally I don't really have an issue with Vista, I just prefer 7. Vista works fine though and good to see that it sill runs OK on newer hardware.
 
I think I'll go and download them again actually, I quite like them.

I know what you mean about Windows 7 appearing to be 'big'. When I first got it 2 years ago I set the taskbar to use small icons, but over time I accustomed to it's looks and now I have them on big again. I prefer Windows 7's taskbar to Vista's and prior Windows operating systems.

I think given the choice between XP, Vista and 7, I'd take Vista over XP, but I'd take 7 over all of them. Vista and 7 are my two preferable Windows operating systems.
 
well, save for gaming, I prefer not to use either of them. 32 bit I would take 2k over everything. 64 bit, I have to say vista. I am actually getting pretty accustomed to it again. Learning all the little do dads it has, like windows mail and the calendar. I know 7 is better optimized, but it goes back to like the video card. Its all I need, and will do the same thing, so why use the extra, plus it is stable while the digital download of 7 I have is corrupted somehow.

XP would be okay as a option against 2k. Thats whats on the M90, mainly because its 2k video drivers were not stable. I may go in and edit some things and try it again. Ill try that after getting all my computer all tidied up and work on some cables.
 
I've never had much luck with copies of Windows downloaded from Microsoft. Bought and downloaded Windows 7 Ultimate x64 SP1 a while back from Microsoft TechNet. Had to burn it to several different disks before it worked and it was a bit unstable. Currently using a retail copy of Pro which I had hanging around, no problems at all. :)
 
That theme I installed seems to be causing issues. My sound tray won't load and comes up with an error. I did a system restore last night, so we'll see how my laptop is when I turn it on at work in another half hour.
 
Funny you mention problems with sound and custom themes. Back when I used XP daily, I installed a custom theme and I had issues with my sound drivers. Removed the theme and all was fine again.
 
Changed mine up a little. 32" main on the left, 17" second on the right. Everything is fully animated/interactive too. There are tabs on the circle on the left that open various file locations and such.

Still image doesn't do it justice. I'll see if I can't record it and throw it up on youtube.

or not. apparently you can't record dual monitors with Fraps.
