I don't even like that desktop Corona, I just wanted something different to start the thread off with.

I've actually still got your bedsheet on my screen. :lol:

Still using my July desktop - the sleeping Tiger. I find something very majestic and very peaceful about this image.

Very odd, my Icon Dock disappears when I take the snapshot. Didn't want anyone thinking...poor fellow, no icons at all. :)

Wow Mr.Brownstone what theme is that for your XP desktop? It looks awesome! Also inside your window in your XP desktop, how did you get the area with the back and forward buttons to be like what it is on your desktop? It looks amazing!

Do you by any chance have the sending of "Referrer Information" disabled? It's a simple checkbox in Opera, but it can be configured in Firefox, and I have no idea about any other browsers.

Pixpipeline will not work if the site can't get information about where a user is coming from. Literally, not metaphorically. :)

That's just one possibility of course.

QUOTE
Fantasy is the celebration of what we no longer are: individuals certain of our meaningfulness in a meaningful world. The wish-fulfillment that distinguishes fantasy from other genres is not to be the all-conquering hero, but to live in a meaningful world. The fact that such worlds are enchanted worlds, worlds steeped in magic, simply demonstrates the severity of our contemporary crisis.
