I see. I'm using some crappy software that came free with my scanner, so that may well explain it.

Another option is to upload it to some webspace-account and then to use the "[ img][/img ]"-tags, to show your desktop in its full glory

I have 55

I have none. Well actually I have four but they are hidden using the "don't show icons in web view" command.

It doesn't ?!

Can't you get the image online, or
If you have the image online, put the url in your post, with [img ][ /img] tags around it. Without the extra spaces of course.

if you try to use the img tags you end up with a little red x instead of your image

Your image is corrupt, or of a format not recognised by this forum. Is it a JPEG?!

No, CW is right, Geocities doesn't let you show the pic somewhere else than on their own sites/accounts.
So you get a fancy red X.

Something similar is also the case with Angelfire...

just testing...

i've tried gifs and they've not worked, but i've not tested jpgs (to the best of my recollection)







edit for test results: either they changed it or me iz no as stoopid as beefor

Realized how ****ty my DT looked so I had to give it a face lift.
Nota bene: the aestethic superiority of my WinAmp skin.

Cool skin, Jug

But...do you really need that many windows?

1) Right-click on the shortcut(/icon);
2) When still "right-clicked", drag icon towards the taskbar;
3) When having dragged the icon into the taskbar, let go, and you'll get a menu, just select "move here"

I don't get the menu. I can't drag to the taskbar at all.

Funny you mentioned it, x seconds later the system crashed.

I know I should close them, but I'm too lazy and besides I like being stunned over how many windows this comp can handle, as opposite to my former Mac which crashed if you tried to open ICQ while having Netscape open! LOL!

i can't show my desktop...It is a constantly changing swirl of colors...almost like a screen saver. when i try to print screen and make an image out of it, it is still in motion in the pasted image...when i try to save it, it is just black. IT IS BADASS i wish y'all could see it =(

[ColdWizard]

take a bunch of stills and put them together as an animated gif
