digitalblasphemy is a great place for wallpapers. Guy does fantastic work.
I can't show my current background, it's rather adult. Hooray for Suicide Girls is all I can say.

Samuraia Crip, Where did u get the Widnwos skin, and wallaper?

[b4i7]

haha nil true that....find the dvd of their first tour...

[xdxforever]

razor: check out WindowBlinds, thats what it is.
And im in agreement about digitalblasphemy, i had something by him up for a while...

[nil8]

I have the first tour dvd and they're on their 2nd tour right now. Unfortunately, I couldn't score tickets quick enough for the 2 venues within 200 miles of me to go, so I'll have to wait until next time.

Basically my backgrounds rotate between beautiful tattooed and pierced chicks, images from digitalblashphemy and art I find intriguing.

Have you guys heard about rasterbator (http://homokaasu.org/rasterbator/)? It allows you to turn images into posters. It's rather sweet if you can get ahold of a color laser printer.
That I can show you a picture of. Anyone who has read the Sandman series by Neil Gaiman should know what this picture is of. For those of you that haven't, this is a picture of the Endless, specifically Death and Destiny. I would highly highly recommend reading Sandman, it's one of the best graphic novels ever made.

Yeah, but my block is huge, I can't remember the last time a cop came. I ride my dads mustang all the time. I expect to have my permit when I first turn 16.

[CanaBalistic]

Why dont you take a "naughty" picture of your g/f and set it as your desktop... Kill 2 birds with one stone...

Razor: expecting and getting are 2 totaly diffrent things... :)

[b4i7]

haha...2 reasons...
1 we dont want that kind of relationship...and its worked so far..10 months

[Razors Edge]

You don't want that kind of relationship? hmm 40 year old virgin in the making.

I'm only 13 and I never really had a long lasting relationship but I have gotten a "peice of action".

-I can probabley get my permit at 16. Already I have mastered parrellel parking and such. Its just the written test I fear. I am just a good of driver as my 25 year old brother. I just go like....40 miles faster then he does? lmao

[b4i7]

that answers why you havent had a long lasting one...


and samurai...nope US :(... its legal for us to do stuff....just illegal(cuz of her age) to have pictures......

[Zephik]

lol man that reminds me of when I was younger. My friends and I were always going on about "trying to get some". Good memory flash back, I enjoyed those days. :) (lol although it took me about 5-6 years afterwards to finally get "some". I guess I was just waiting for that right girl ;) )

My new desktop! lol since my old one went bye bye. :hurt:

Anyways...

Again, Completely Clean and Completely Digital! Not a real thing in site! Props for digital blasphemy! They do a AWESOME job!

I must dispute your views on automobiles.

I'm not particularly a fan of exotics, but i perfer imports over most "american muscle".

Remember kids, strategy beats brute force ;)


my WP on this rig is a WP that ranken had awhile ago, the "These boots were made for walken" picture =D


I'll post my main rig's wallpaper when i get there, though.

[xdxforever]

Rasor, remind yourself to never talk about anyones' or your own relationships for a good long time yet to come.
By the way, digital blasphmy is one person Snowfire.

[Omega]

First off, get off your high horse. Just because somebody isn't sexaully interested in another person at this point in time doesn't mean they'll be a virgin forever.

Second off, we really don't care if you've been laid. It's illegal to have sex at your age and i suggest that even if you had that you keep quiet about it.

Third off, i don't think anybody here really cares about your driving skills. if you want to see a real driver, go talk to somebody who learned how to drive in the REAL driver's country; Germany. Hell, my mom learned how to drive in germany and as soon as she's in a car she has complete control over it no matter the situation. She could probably beat you in that mustang while driving her Mercury Capri (Google it).

(Also, trust me, until you can actually legally drive, you'll think you're oh-so-great at it, and trust me, that's far from the truth.)

Anywho, I'm not trying to come off as an asshole, but I can't stand people who can't stand back and be modest, especially those younger than me.

-Omega

[Razors Edge]

especially those younger than me.


jelousy might be the word.

[nil8]

Flame each other in pm. There's no reason to have it out and hijack this thread at the same time.

Razor, the one thing I will say is that you are not as good as most drivers. To think you are because you can go fast or handle well is not true.
Being good at driving takes years of experience, weather conditions, and understanding of your vehicle placement and emergency reaction.
I've been driving for 6 years, never been in an accident, and have dealt with ice, blowouts, debris on the road, 2 lane highway driving, big city driving, and a slew of other things I can't think of and I'm not a good driver. I won't be for another 10-20 years. It's not about the quarter mile or speed limit, it's about being a good driver.

Snow, I have rasterbated that very picture and have yet to hang it on my wall.
The guy does amazing graphic design work and does this in his spare time for fun, this isn't his regular job. He's a nice dude too, if you email him often he will email you back.

[Omega]

Yeah Nil, It wasn't my intention for that to come off as a flame, but whatever.

Also, what you said about driving is exactly waht I was getting at.

Anywho, here's the new WP for this rig (This is not my main computer):

[luciusad2004]

I checked it out but none of it matched my resolution. The only comp i have at the moment is a 12 inch ibook running in 1024 x 768. Idk. I dont really know anything about resolutions, so i dont even know what that means. :bunny: :bunny: :bunny:

[tybrenis]

You can use the larger pictures for your wallpaper still. The only time you really get into trouble is when you have a larger resolution than the image that you want as a wallpaper is. When that happens, you start stretching the image to fit your larger resolution, and your pictures end up stretched out and fugly looking. Sizing images down doesn't harm their quality.

[Slug Toy]

beauty crimson!!! now i can make better wallpapers!!! all i had to use was a tiny 100x100 pixel logo, and i had to scale it up and smooth it out before i could even think about doing anything. with that nice big one... its half done for me.

[Omega]

Now that I'm home, here's the wallpaper for my main rig, aka Project: Cavalier or it's unofficial informal nickname, Supernova. It's the less featured of my two project (Cavalier & ArgDawn)

Anywho. I took the wallpaper from Iron Maiden's website then shopped it to my liking (for those who have seen the one on the Iron Maiden website, it's half the eddie-crossgun logo on the right side)

I also added in text 'cause I actually went to that concert.

Hey 3.1 is the first networked version of windows that actually WORKED! Had to pry my fingers from my old 3.1 box years after they released windows98 so I could play some newer games. Same with XP. Now they will have to do the same with my XPsp2 box.

(I could post a windows 1 desktop, but I cannot load it on anything I have...)

Haha, it's XPsp2 Corporate Edition. But nice try. That's a pretty sweet looking desktop man. I wish that was my real life desktop. Is that a shell? How... tell me HOW! Oh and your background probably came out weird because you resized the image.

[Zephik]

I use the program Desktop X.

Hmmm... linkage, linkage, now where did that link go? One sec... I have it here somewhere. ^^

Okay!

Well this is the website that I got desktop x from.

Stardock (http://www.stardock.com/products/desktopx/)

And this is where I get my... skins? Or shells? Or whatever you call them.

Wincustomize (http://www.wincustomize.com/Index.aspx)

heh.... i was gonna say abirds background looked a lil like a default background for linux.....

Nope, it's the default for OS X. I've got a ton of them and it's amazing how much more visually appealing they are than XP's default wallpapers. Most of the os x wallies are at least 1280*960 and very abstract and moody whereas XP utilizes its desktop to display distracting, contrived, low quality "scenes." Bleh.

[luciusad2004]

very nice a.Bird Im useing a mac right now and you fooled even me. Lol, now that you mention it though i can see some dead give aways. Like the position of the window control tools (minimize, maximize, and close; i dont know what they are really called)

Very beautiful. i always love seeing a well skinned version of XP.

Check out the wonderfully cool 78F processor. Gotta love watercooled.

It's pronounced aeno-dyze-d.
Remove the n from nano, like dive but replace the v with a z, finally add a d.

FAT sucked. No disk quotas, permission issues, security issues, and it had a bitch of a time on large disk arrays.
NTFS was the wave of the future and has done a damn fine job, all things considered.
