It helps to keep things looking acceptable.Quote:

A little too much going to earn 100pts, but I still liked it enough. Felt like a change anyway.
New wall for new laptop.

Plain as fuck. Look into desktop customization, it takes a while but it's so worth it.
You see "plain" but I see "neat and simplified". I think your desktop looks sweet, Buff.Quote:

A lot of people spend more time using their computers for internet surfing, media and Microsoft Office programs than looking/admiring their desktops, so really, there's little incentive for full-out customization - for the average user, anyway.
The extent of my customization is usually tweaking the main OSX color scheme, adium, and my desktop icons, such as my current setup:

I really like that LF-A wallpaper. If they could only produce it with some tuner girls and fans in the stand, it'd be in my wallpaper rotation.
lol, i don't have the PS chops to that, or else I'd entertain your idea.Quote:

>He still uses the same windows start icon
What's this, amateur hour? ;D
That looks great. Rainmeter looks like something that would actually come in handy for me from a practical point of view as well as satisfying the "gimicky" nerd needs of mine.
Ironically, the weather feature of Rainmeter will be the most useless feature for me.
Because weather in Australia is always the same: shitty
Didn't i recommend the rainmeter to you a while back as well?
I don't know if you recommended anything. Even after what I said above, I'll likely keep my desktop the same as it is until I actually get bored and fiddly.Quote:

Current desktop, followed by laptop. The desktop wall reflects my status/mood perfectly.

Why is your mangameeya icon different from mine...?
No idea. I haven't actually used it after I installed it.
