    we have entirely too many desktop threads.

    but seeing as I changed computers I have a new desktop. I haven't spent a whole lot of time searching for a cool desktop yet, so I just chose the first cool nasa pic I could find.

    hmmm, well I was going to put my desktop, but my adobe photodeluxe doesn't seem to work properly with Windows XP

    Anyone know a good photo program that is free? That can converte bmp's to jpg's and resize and such.

          that doesn't convert it into a jpg which I can attack to posts. If I attach a bmp to a post, it just links it to be downloaded, it doesn't display it.

          I downloaded some plug-ins but my program doesn't seem to work with Windows XP.

            There is apparently an option there somewhere to convert it to jpg.

              I have this background for 4 years now, and I don't intended to change it anytime soon.

              Btw, how do you 'resize' a desktop with paint?

                  vd-03.06.04-?.png are today's shots, of course. They're enumerated by virtual desktop number. The reason why I give the number of shots to take as a parameter to that shot-taking script is that FVWM usually has 2^32 virtual desktops and I can't be bothered to find a real way to take shots of only the desktops that have stuff on them.

                  Here's an interesting quantifier of the minimalism of my desktop: optipng losslessly reduced every one of today's shots to eight-bit colours, two of them to grayscale. I do run XFree in 24-bit mode for when I need more colours, though..

                              Just changed it. Wow, I can't believe how much better WinXP runs with 64x64 icons instead of 128x128 ones. Still, they seem so tiny.
