This is mine (made it in photoshop using two photo's from my old phone (k800i) which are also on my flickr account)
http://www.flickr.com/photos/nicholas-thompson/1716812960/

I have the dark version from my new phone (k850i) and its MUCH nicer quality (due to better ISO settings)...

All I need is more daylight I might walk from waterloo to work one morning - that might do it.

Couldn't have said it better myself, UFO.

BTW Roxas, post a pic of your desktop is the topic here, not your dream car.

I see, maybe i should try to cut down on the red bull. it's almost getting as bad as Dazzag's alcohol consumption "problem".

My background at the moment is some Fallout 3 art. An higher rez version of this pretty picture.

@Seppuku - Don't bother pointing out what may or may not be useless-- we'll lock them if we feel necessary. But must you spam that link everywhere? You already made a thread about it and have it in your sig.

I would post my desktop but I just reinstalled Windows so there's no point.

Here's my desktop... The background was made from a photograph in an old warehouse that is being converted into an apartment building. Big open space with tons of dirty gritty textures everywhere. Unfortunately the lighting wasn't very good so I only got a few decent images to work with. This one in particular I just thought would look cool as a desktop or something. So that's what I did.

I'm leaving it attached as it's full size and it will stretch the forum alot 1680 x 1050

Windows will hilight an item once you press it's letter, Windows Vista will hilight by the entry of letters. For example, if I typed "t", it would go to the first to, then if I hit "h", it would go to the first occurance of "th", and so on.

Fairplay Jeku, I just thought, as we have already had 100s of background threads and that you guys were on a stamp out that this would be locked, so I thought in case that would happen, I'd post. But you're right, if I were to do that with every thread with the possibility of lock it would just be spam.

I use Aqua Dock to get the top bar on my screen. It's nice because it auto hides and can be 'always on top' just like a start menu bar.

Huh, I use AVG and I've never been warned it's a virus, my friend uses it as well. I think you might have found a bad link, otherwise, AVG might think it's a virus because of how it works or something.

I made this for my desktop at work, it's a little too cluttered for use at home though, since it's hard to make out the desktop icons.

But it works at any resolution at or below 1280x1024 :o)
