It never gets old. Sure, it's not a typical reply-based thread, but I always peek at new ones when they post just to take a gander at what people are doing. And I like posting my desktops when I get something interesting as well.

Nope, it ain't getting old, and I think the idea's sound. Of course you could, or should, have a rule making "thumbnails only" eligible for entry, because these large pics are a real pain in the arse.

Yep, I know, I can be a pain in the arse as well, but they spoil a good thread. Nothing personal chaps, just my opinion.

Mine for June. There's now a second red ring to compliment the one on her finger. :)

I figured people were losing interest because the threads are getting smaller and smaller. At first these topics had like 8 pages or more and last month it was barely 2. I was just trying to think of a way to make it more interesting.

The rules of the competition:
1. Must be a thumb nail to a larger picture.(per grumpy D) :P
2. Nothing Obscene(duh)

I love looking at icons on other peoples' desktops too. That's how I find out what's out there. I Google the icon name.
I know, I know, I usually 'hide' my desktop icons for a screenshot. The few icons I have are from Big Fish Games or the Myst series or from indy game developers.

The screenshot is from Uru: The Path Of The Shell, an intense anti-logic Myst game. It looks even better when all that water is roaring downward.

Woody, that is one trippy desktop. :blink:

It's the Audi R8. I've seen a few around Manchester recently. I like it but I can't afford it. I can't even begin to afford it. I can't even think of trying to .............. oh shut up and go to bed.
