Title: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: Abominator on 2 December 2007, 19:01:14 I might as well kick things off in this forum with an old classic.
As usual, what with me being a total hack, I've take some Classic MM artwork and slapped it on a modified existing wallpaper with some drop shadows and edge preserving smooths! Also, I'm using a nice spectral theme on Windowblinds. Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: Johncarllos on 2 December 2007, 20:21:04 I have a constant rotation of a load of pictures, so I'm gonna not post any.
:P Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: Dr. on 2 December 2007, 21:22:59 I remember!
I made this thread. O: Oh well. Mine's still the old "Fresh Install" of XP. Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: ASR on 2 December 2007, 21:26:22 Positioned in the bottom-left corner, simplistic and effective.
Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: Yubi Shines on 2 December 2007, 22:12:48 Still precisely the same as before, a drawing an acquaintance did for me:
http://quas-quas.deviantart.com/art/060401-RO-Dinah-Hunter-31155663 Except tweaked to have a black background instead of white. Easier on the eyes. Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: Vinchenz Rock on 3 December 2007, 02:25:13 I has a background too!
And excuuuuuuse me, princess, for liking Dragon Quest more than MegaMan. Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: Chron on 3 December 2007, 02:28:15 RIDE 'EM COWBOY
And then stab 'em in the freaking head. Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: Jakey on 3 December 2007, 03:05:28 Oh DANG.
If I ever saw one of those guys roaming the land, lookin all scary and high and mighty, thinking he was better than everyone else... I'd smoosh him. BECAUSE I AM A GIANT COLOSSUS. Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: Chron on 3 December 2007, 03:06:45 A giant mushroom colossus.
I think you might have some problems moving there, Jakey. Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: Yubi Shines on 3 December 2007, 03:08:09 That is such a depressing game. They're all big and sad and... sort of confused.
Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: ASR on 3 December 2007, 03:09:04 The new order changes many things. Including immobility.
Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: Chron on 3 December 2007, 03:14:38 Truly a force to be reckoned with.
That is such a depressing game. They're all big and sad and... sort of confused. And you kill them all <3 Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: ASR on 3 December 2007, 03:15:18 What game?
Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: ChaosVortex on 3 December 2007, 03:19:24 I should really clean my #####.

Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: Johncarllos on 3 December 2007, 13:54:00 Shadow of the Colossus is a great game. I'm stuck on Number 12, I think...
I need to play it again. Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: Chron on 3 December 2007, 13:55:58 Do so now, good sir, and you get a giant cookie.
what you must climb and stab before you eat 12 is the sandworm thing, right? Good times. Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: Johncarllos on 3 December 2007, 14:45:00 No, 11 is the sandworm I think, 12 is the thing in the Lake, 13 is the "Basilisk."
*shudder* Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: Chron on 3 December 2007, 15:59:57 Whatever #13 is, it's horrible. I'd never want to...
... wait. You guys know those woop-woop WHIRRRRR BOOM things in Half Life? Colossus like that. The lake guy, eh? You need some wrangling music for that. Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: Johncarllos on 3 December 2007, 16:02:08 Well, ya gotta shoot his head and stuff to make him run away.

Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: Mikero on 3 December 2007, 21:44:01 I need a desktop like that.
Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: Johncarllos on 3 December 2007, 22:08:51 Very professional.
Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: ASR on 4 December 2007, 01:35:33 Hehe, that's a good one.
Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: Edgecrusher on 4 December 2007, 01:51:19 The wallpaper seems a bit tacky to me, but you'd be surprised how often it actually keeps me on task.
... Clearly not at the moment, by my homework is done through the end of the semester, so that doesn't count. Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: ASR on 4 December 2007, 02:35:34 I personally need a little more motivation than that.
Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: Captain Sanoguchi on 4 December 2007, 02:41:14 Mine is manly!

Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: Captain Sanoguchi on 4 December 2007, 02:45:21 ...Yes. It is.
Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: Edgecrusher on 4 December 2007, 04:08:36 I personally need a little more motivation than that. Almost all the work I do somehow involves this laptop. When you're forced to look at a reminder not to slack, it does wonders. I know you wouldn't think so, but I was surprised as well. Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: Orange Devil on 4 December 2007, 04:13:24 Hey Sano, know how I know you're gay?

I <3 my desktop. Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: Winged Warrior on 4 December 2007, 19:21:29 Changed muh mind
far too cute. Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: ASR on 4 December 2007, 21:28:26 That's not that cute.
Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: Edgecrusher on 4 December 2007, 22:10:41 It's like those pictures of ugly babies. You feel as though you should act like it's cute, but it just feels like a completely hollow gesture.
Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: ASR on 4 December 2007, 22:16:51 Perfect analogy. Ugly babies are so sad, though.
Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: Edgecrusher on 4 December 2007, 22:28:56 The best part about ugly babies is watching how people act. Of course, if it was MY ugly baby it would be a different story.
Of course, I don't have ANY kids, so I'll bask in morbid amusement without context born guilt. Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: ASR on 4 December 2007, 22:32:31 Karma's a bitch, I'm just warning you.
Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: Edgecrusher on 4 December 2007, 22:39:39 If I believed my actions warranted karmic retaliation, then I would have to expect punishment for any instance in which I noticed a pattern and observed it. As far as I'm concerned, what I do is no more different than watching how someone reacts at their surprise birthday party when you know that it's anything but a surprise for them.
Kind of like watching actors in a really, really big movie. Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: ASR on 4 December 2007, 22:41:09 Don't worry, I laugh at awkward people around ugly babies, too. Quietly, though, and preferably in my head.
They should really hire sexier actresses at my school. Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: Edgecrusher on 4 December 2007, 22:44:40 Maybe all of the world as a whole just acts as Hollywood's ugly friend.
You know, the one they only associate with so they look better? Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: Captain Sanoguchi on 5 December 2007, 01:16:05 Hey Sano, know how I know you're gay? No, I don't know, how do you know I'm gay? Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: Mikero on 5 December 2007, 01:52:37 Almost all the work I do somehow involves this laptop. When you're forced to look at a reminder not to slack, it does wonders. I know you wouldn't think so, but I was surprised as well. Yeah.. Can you send me that sometime? I'm too lazy/busy to do my own. Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: Edgecrusher on 5 December 2007, 02:15:50 For any parties who are interested.
Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: Jakey on 5 December 2007, 02:17:15 Yesssss, I was just about to ask you for that.
That should hopefully put an end to my procrastination. Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: Mikero on 5 December 2007, 02:18:15 Same. Thanks.
Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: ASR on 5 December 2007, 02:20:49 Ditto on all 'dat.

Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: ClickOutMets on 5 December 2007, 05:57:30 Well, may as well post mine since I'm trying to be more active here.
I've had this wallpaper for almost a year on my lappy, which is almost a year old. So that's funny too.

Very true. :B That might explain the obscene amount of PW yaoi on the internet.Yeah, like the GumshoexArmstrong pics I fou....nevermind.... That would have really disturbed me, had I not given birth to the Phoenix Wright Anonymous Kink Meme on LiveJournal. ): After the Kink Meme, there's no going back. . . *sigh* Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: Rahvin on 8 December 2007, 06:29:13 Wow....I probably couldn't handle that as just the sight of Armstrong makes me want to slit my wrists....Boobs still make people happy. Gay or human. Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: CIMSomebody on 8 December 2007, 08:50:13 Yeah, me too.
Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: Aresian on 8 December 2007, 13:15:55 *sigh* Normally teh gehys doesn't bother me, but you yaoi fans really killed a series for me this time. Now I can't go much of anywhere involving PW without seeing it. -_-
Oh well, desktop created by my bud, Dominican Zero. It's nifty and stuff. Observative Thought: Now that I thought about it... You guys did it to FMA and a few other series... yaoi fans breed upon every series like rats. :( Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: Captain Sanoguchi on 8 December 2007, 18:46:10 Melty Blood?
Now that just sounds silly. Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: guitaristjoe on 9 December 2007, 02:36:53 Heh...
Melty Blood... I couldn't take that seriously even if it had Sean Penn in it. And let me tell you. Sean Penn is SERIOUS. Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: Chron on 9 December 2007, 03:56:14 It has this evil chick in it that...
... actually, let me show you my Melty Blood desktop. It should clear everything up nicely. actually, now that i see it again it doesn't make much sense i'm pretty sure i don't know how it's related either Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: CIMSomebody on 9 December 2007, 04:45:59 *sigh* Normally teh gehys doesn't bother me, but you yaoi fans really killed a series for me this time. Now I can't go much of anywhere involving PW without seeing it. -_- I really hate being referred to as a 'yaoi fan.' For a while, yeah, I was pretty bad but that was a while ago. I like het and yuri too, thanks. I guess just being gay myself, I find yaoi to be a bit more relevant to my interests. As far as 'ruining' it for you. . . if there were a whole bunch of heterosexual pairings all over the fandom, would it ruin it for you too? Seriously, if it bothers you that much then I suggest you grow some balls and get over it. |: It's not like I'm trying to shove GAY in your face. Anyway, as far as your desktop goes, I don't know how you can even look at her face hahaha. It's drawn so poorly I might throw up on someone. ): Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: MOX on 9 December 2007, 05:21:43 I got a friend who likes yaoi.

I like it; it's been a while since I had one with a darker color scheme (the last one was a photograph of the fall colors in the Smoky Mountains -- pretty, but the bright colors made my desktop kind of annoying after a while).

Generally what lands on my desktop (aside from a couple game folders) are notepads for scribbling reminders and quotes on, current avatars, things like that. Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: Panda on 15 December 2007, 00:31:06 <3 Daft Punk

Pretty neat, huh? I have a Daft Punk Sticker on the back of my laptop, so you can consider me a fanboy. And savvved. What exactly happens when the grid on your desktop is entirely filled with icons and you dump something else in? I'm pretty sure the Windows desktop can get "full" so nothing else can go on it but I don't know. That's based on something my friend said when I told him my desktop is the default download folder and I haven't organized it in 9 months so there's loads of icons on top of icons.

I didn't read your post so I didn't get the image until I actually saw the Doctor. Love that they start in Black and White. How many Doctors can come now? He can only change 13 times right? I think he's up pretty high now. Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: preventerWIND on 16 December 2007, 03:19:28 It's plain, very plain.

The Master did some VERY unorthodox things to extend his life, but then given the lifestyle he lived he was prone to regenerating a lot more frequently than a typical Time Lord. RTD made up some bullock about resetting the Master's Regeneration Cycle, but he also turned Dr. Who into "ZOMG I'M IN LOVE WITH TEH DOKTOR!" LOL. Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops!

Post by: ASR on 19 December 2007, 03:15:51 What exactly happens when the grid on your desktop is entirely filled with icons and you dump something else in? I'm pretty sure the icons start layering underneath the ones present. Like, in between the corners. It gets hard to read them. There must be a limit, though... ANYWAY YAY FOR DOCTOR WHO! I really wish it could've been the sort of thing I grew up with. I love it, and I'd literally kill for a chance to be caught up on everything. Everything. That's gotta' be impossible though, nobody has that kind of time. I almost bought some of the old radio shows, but... they're a bit pricey, and I was low on cash. I really wanted to, though.

That's where I've been during MMM's downtime. Alot of NSFW stuff there but it has alot of funny crap and ED is not to be taken too seriously. Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: Mikero on 2 January 2008, 01:31:38 Encyclopedia Dramatica is barely funny taken seriously or not. The only thing I found remotely worth reading there was the term "an hero".
Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: Xero on 2 January 2008, 01:37:25 Yeah. I stay away from the gross crap and read more of the lesser stuff like memes.
Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: Mikero on 2 January 2008, 01:42:28 I'm not even talking about gross stuff. I'm talking common decencies regarding race, religion, etc. There's comedy, and then there's shock humour which has never been funny, interesting, or ballsy. I can and have taken all sorts of race and religious and such jokes, sometimes at my own expense, but ED isn't even comical in the SLIGHTEST. It's beyond rude, because sometimes people are rude because they think it's funny. It's just not funny and trying way too hard for shock value.
Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: Voulnet on 2 January 2008, 13:00:40 You just pick what you want to read/enjoy there, Miky. ED is just like that, and if it's gonna change, it will be for the worse. Myself, I don't frequent ED, I just see some specific things for the LULZ. Hell, I was even mentioned in ED before, but someone removed it XD
Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: Mikero on 2 January 2008, 17:29:39 Yeah yeah I'm just saying there's stuff that's totally rude and that crosses the line but still manages to be fun. ED doesn't. Like I can seriously develop a mental image of a person who adds to that site because it's trying so hard and it's so typical. I've read the page on Hitler; Not funny. I'm not being a prude or anything, I've done ##### for the lulz too, it's just not even funny while being offensive/wrong. I'd rather watch Mind of Mencia.

Anyways, Mikey, I don't watch Corner Gass very often. Also, that otter thing was something I asked my friends, still to this day I don't know what they call people from Ottawa.. Care to fill me in? Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: Mikero on 11 January 2008, 01:04:07 I don't know. "Ottawans"? You'd have to ask people outside the city I think, since there's no reason to talk about ourselves in the third person. I think it's just generally "People from Ottawa [who take all our tax dollars]". The second part is to be added if you're from one of the Territories.
Otter is funny though. Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: ChaosVortex on 11 January 2008, 01:26:21 Still haven't cleaned my desktop.

Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: Snare on 13 January 2008, 02:14:37 The amount of times the word fag is on this page is more than annoying already. It never fails. Sano will bring up homosexuality or question of manliness in every topic he posts in. EVEN IF IT IS ONLY PART OF A WORD. Well played, Sano. Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: NovaMan XP on 13 January 2008, 03:48:13 Er, where did ANYONE get the idea that I was a furry-lover or whatever?
Riiight. I'm not. Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: ChaosVortex on 13 January 2008, 04:11:34 Sounded pretty random and accusational to me.
I say we beat Sano. And not the good kind. Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: NovaMan XP on 13 January 2008, 04:13:32 Actually, it was Wind who called me it.
Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: preventerWIND on 13 January 2008, 04:14:57 YEAH LETS BEAT SANO!
Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: Captain Sanoguchi on 13 January 2008, 05:15:16 No, I was defending my faithful sidekick all the way.
I say WIND deserves a good spanking... WITH A BASEBALL BAT! Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: Mikero on 13 January 2008, 05:24:29 Spank Wind on your own time like we know you dream about every night while listening to Your Chemical Romance LPs under the covers with a flashlight writing in your diary about how pissed off you are at your parents for making you get braces and how you can't have popcorn with the other boys when your cabin watches movies because it gets stuck in your brace face. "Oh I can't chew gum! Oh I can't eat soy! Lactose gives me spastic colon! My feet are wet!" LISTEN TO YOURSELF, MAN! You're spiraling down an evervescent tube to your own demise, man! An obsidian void is creeping up inside your soul, the very core of being is drowning, drenched in the puss and bile and waste that has become your own mind. You think there's no system, man? You think they're not watching? They're not lisntening? There's a sticker on every banana, man! Think about that #####!
Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: ChaosVortex on 13 January 2008, 05:25:49 I have. No idea. What I just read, but it made me smile.
A lot. Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!)

You think they're not watching? They're not listening? There's a sticker on every banana, man! Think about that #####! Chemical Romance sucks. I chose to get braces. I hate popcorn. I don't live in a cabin with other boys and watch movies. I still chew gum anyway. I don't even really know what Soy is. I've never really cared about my colon. I actually do have to be careful about having my feet wet because letting my feet be wet for an extended amount of time gives me a really bad rash called Eczima. I hate my own voice. I like water tube slides. I don't care about systems, math annoys me. I don't care if math is watching me. Or listening to me. I don't care about the sticker, I don't eat the peel. I won't think at all. Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: Majikn on 13 January 2008, 06:00:23 My Chemical Romance is a love-it-or-hate-it band.
Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: Mikero on 13 January 2008, 06:05:24 Hate it.

Braces are for nerds with bad teeth like you. Popcorn > You. Cabins are at camp, the idea was that you're at camp, keep up. How do people not know what soy is? You'd care if you had spastic colon, look it up. Eczema is gross and is spelled with 2 E's. A lot of people hate their own voice. Waterslides are fun, a portal to death isn't (unless you're a FOR-TRUE emo, but that's an oxymoron). I said nothing about math, don't change the subject (the subject is not math, english, law or any scholastic "subject"). Math has no eyes with which to watch, but THEY do. Math has no ears with which to listen, but THEY do. The sticker is a device, the peel is a lie. Why should today be any different? Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: Majikn on 13 January 2008, 06:11:20 Haven't listened to it. But I come across people who love it and people who hate it regularly, and the people who like it tend to have respectable opinions, so I figure it's just that.

I know Eczema is gross, and there are many ways to spell it, be glad my way was anywhere close to correct. I know. Dieing is for losers and fat people. I like English! THEY suck. THEY suck. The sticker is a tiny piece of paper with adhesive on the back, the peel is real and born in nature. It's actually night right now. Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!)

It's on an orange background with a yellow glow behind her. I love it, but I don't think I could post it here. >_> Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: Majikn on 17 January 2008, 23:22:10 But we LOVE dicks!

Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: Lunchebox on 1 March 2008, 09:54:43 Lucario is a dumb character that shouldn't be in BRAWL.
Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: Panda on 1 March 2008, 11:23:38 I don't know why everyone hates Lucario so much, maybe because people think he replaced Mewtwo?
He's an Anubis, which is awesome in it's own right, and then he has the cool gameplay design of dealing more damage the higher his percentage is, and apparently he can stick to walls, and he has a cool and tricky to use Up B move. He has a crazy range as well, and his final smash rocks. Why wouldn't you want him in Brawl? Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: Lunchebox on 1 March 2008, 13:23:48 Because he looks dumb and I'm sick of them filling in slots with Pokemon, when that easily could have been someone like Waluigi.
Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: ASR on 1 March 2008, 13:24:22 Because he's an unnecessary Pokemon and there was nothing wrong with Mewtwo.
Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: Lunchebox on 1 March 2008, 13:24:49 Man, I don't even care about Mewtwo, I just think he looks dumb.
Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: ASR on 1 March 2008, 13:28:19 He looks like he's wearing huge shorts.
Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: ChaosVortex on 1 March 2008, 14:51:54 Mewtwo sucked, but that doesn't mean I didn't like him. I would've improved him for Brawl, not replace him.
... If I was Sakurai, that is. Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: Majikn on 1 March 2008, 19:49:14 I agree with Panda. Screw improving Mewtwo if they could bring in a better character with a cooler concept.
I'm also glad it wasn't Waluigi. They're not "filling in slots" with Pokemon as much as they're doing with Mario characters (there's actually still only four Pokemon slots, the number hasn't even gone up), and enough is enough. Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: Mikero on 1 March 2008, 20:29:06 Hm hm hm photoshop...

Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: Majikn on 2 March 2008, 05:03:31 I just figured "an Anubis" was something given the physical characteristics of Anubis.
Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: Lunchebox on 2 March 2008, 05:04:38 Anubis is the God of death (in Egypt).
He should have said "He looks similar to Anubis". Which he doesn't. Lucario looks like a chump. Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: Majikn on 2 March 2008, 05:10:41 I KNOW what Anubis is. I even clearly implied that I did. I'm just saying that when I read his post, I simply differentiated between the God "Anubis" and "an Anubis," Jesus Christ.
Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: Lunchebox on 2 March 2008, 05:35:29 And I'm saying him calling Lucario "an Anubis" is stupid.

The Lakers will win this year, check back with me in June. Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: Captain Sanoguchi on 4 March 2008, 23:45:56 Wait, Red as in Red Dawn? He's dead?
Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: Lunchebox on 5 March 2008, 00:27:55 Yes, because Red Dawn opposed the dancers, they waited until he died to put them on the Celtics.
Because we all know how much influence Red Dawn had over the Celtics. Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: ChaosVortex on 5 March 2008, 00:30:01 Lunche said it. Must be true.
... wait, he's being sarcastic. ... THEN THAT MEANS... Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: Mikero on 5 March 2008, 00:42:20 Wait, Red as in Red Dawn? He's dead? Red Auerbach, fool. Greatest Celtics coach in ever. The very season they put those Celtics Dancers (after Red's death, because he opposed the idea of dancers), the Celtics had their worst season including a 17 or 18 loss streak. That was because Red was gone, not because of the dancers. Either way I don't really care about the dancers in NBA, NFL cheerleaders, or anything as I don't bother watching their stuff. I put that up because I wanted a change and Green is the joint, and women are the joint, and the Celtics are the joint. Unfortunately one of them has a quasi-ugly face. I think one of the dumbest NBA little group things is those G-Boys or whatever. I think they're from the Mavs or somewhere as my friend showed them to me and he's a Mavs fan. Lakers are of course doing awesome as usual, but Cetics are having an awesome season. Though they often start off well and then spin off when it gets down to it. Mavs are doing well too, I think. Whatever, I like Celtics more for history than I do for current stuff, as with all sports teams for me. Fun fact: Celtics are the third most successful professional sports team in history under the Montreal Canadians (my favourite NHL team), and the New York Yankees. I haven't had a favourite MLB team in a long time, but I like a bunch. For NFL I have backed the Green Bay Packers since grade 8. But CFL is better, and I've backed the Ottawa team since birth. We were the original Rough Riders (which is a wicked football team name, especially pre-DMX Ruff Ryders) but the team closed and there was another Saskatchewan CFL team called the "Saskatchewan Roughriders" (founded under a different league until both merged into the CFL) with different colours (green and white instead of black and red). We came back as Renegades for a while in 2002 but I didn't like that team and they suspended in '06. There are current talks to get Ottawa a team again. Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: Captain Sanoguchi on 5 March 2008, 01:25:43 Wait, Red as in Red Dawn? He's dead? No one understands when I'm trying to be silly.

Post by: Voulnet on 5 March 2008, 19:16:46 Yeah, the Cs have a lot of history alright, and 17 banners speak for themselves, but the Celtics had most of their success during the 50s, while the Lakers had their 14 titles distributed over the 50s, 70s, 80s and the last threepeat in 2000, they also have the best franchise winning percentage.Wait, Red as in Red Dawn?

I could have used one of the teaser screenshots, but that would be far too busy and hide my shortcuts (what few I have at the moment), so I just picked up one of Blizzard's promo wallpapers instead. Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: Mikero on 7 April 2008, 22:40:55 I find Blizzard always sucks at promo wallpapers.

Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: ChaosVortex on 12 April 2008, 04:22:38 If you center it, rather than stretch, it looks good.

-Java -touchpad software -Windows Explorer -a few little windows background things. That's it. Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: Mikero on 5 June 2008, 04:01:20 That's a rather invasive and expensive XP patch.
Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: Johncarllos on 5 June 2008, 04:11:28 It came on the Machine.
I might as well be using XP though, hell even all the little monitors that Vista would normally run aren't on. HAY GUYZ!!!! Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: Mikero on 5 June 2008, 04:14:40 Originally I read "I came on the Machine" and wondered what the hell would be that exciting about your list of processes. Why am I looking at a list of your processes?
Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: Johncarllos on 5 June 2008, 04:17:24 I dunno, because people run more of XP then I do on Vista?
Just trying to convey my point AND show how I operate (show desktop, close enough). Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: ASR on 5 June 2008, 04:21:25 XP runs fine with more of the processes running than Vista does with fewer.
Even though that's a blind statement and I can't back it up, I enjoy sounding knowledgeable on the subject and will pretend that I'm right. Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: Johncarllos on 5 June 2008, 04:24:04 It's true though, because Vista always has it's unused RAM doing SOMETHING on the side, whether it be getting ready for a search, or actually not in use at all. It's kind of annoying.
Anyways, it's okay. Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: ASR on 5 June 2008, 04:26:48 If it makes you feel any better I think computers in general were a step in the wrong direction for society, regardless of how much I enjoy them.
Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: Johncarllos on 5 June 2008, 04:28:48 I see what you mean, but I too thoroughly enjoy them.

Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: The Otaku on 5 June 2008, 04:33:03 Well, yeah, access to anything is bad. But I don't think computers are bad, it's just the internet.
Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: ASR on 5 June 2008, 04:35:18 Computers are the best. They give you access to anything. And how do computeres give you access to anything? Oh, I do believe it's the internet. Anyway, I'm hardly serious. I've just always wondered how society would be if nobody ever thought computers would be a good idea. Of course it's only natural evolution that we created them and it was probably unavoidable. Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: The Otaku on 5 June 2008, 04:39:11 Well you can blame human curiousity for it unavoidability.

Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: Mikero on 6 June 2008, 01:20:50 Digimon aren't any bit more or less weird than Pokemon...
Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: Johncarllos on 6 June 2008, 01:21:23 Digimon freaking rule.
I like the first 4 seasons. Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: ASR on 6 June 2008, 01:24:00 First 3, I'll give it.
Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: The Otaku on 6 June 2008, 01:28:09 Sure Pokemon is just as weird as Digimon, but Pokemon is a bigger franchise and it's much more popular. The Digimon people copied Pokemon's distinct name anyway. Dumb biters.
I used to wake up at seven in the morning just to watch Digimon on the TV in my mom's room. And then some Digimon went and made a loud battle cry, making my mom wake up and kick my buttox. I've hated Digimon ever since. Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: Mikero on 6 June 2008, 01:42:43 Right. Digimon came out before Pokemon during the Tamagotchi age. Digimon started out as a Tamagotchi-like pet thing but you could hook two of them up and they'd fight and get exp.
First 3, I'll give it. 2. If that means the original team and the second team with Davis and ##### that came after the movie. Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: ASR on 6 June 2008, 01:50:14 The first two seasons are with the original team. That means the Devimon story arc and then the Etemon story arc. I watched these religiously.
Season 3 was with the new team, and I never really followed that one thoroughly but it didn't look bad. Season 4 was that Tamers nonsense and I hated it. Posted on: 6 June 2008, 01:44:30 Wait, now I'm confused. I just checked online and apparently Season 1 is 54 episodes and Etemon is on the 15th episode so there are a LOT more than I thought. I never knew it was on DVD. Amazing. (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000UUQG2Q/ref=pd_cp_d_2?pf_rd_p=316286001&pf_rd_s=center-41&pf_rd_t=201&pf_rd_i=B0007WW8CO&pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_r=0JREAH38BRWP52TMT905) Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: Mikero on 6 June 2008, 02:39:36 I don't remember what Etemon was but the first team didn't finish until the movie, which bridged the gap between both teams. Before the movie it was a lot of stuff about them using those medallion things to digivolve to ultimate or whatever.
Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: ChaosVortex on 6 June 2008, 02:44:17 Y'see, I never got into DigiMon, therefore I never liked it. And the fact that the fans in Elementary school were pretentious didn't help either.
I was really liking PokeMon at the time and collecting the cards. I remember a group of kids playing the DigiMon card game (which I heard sucked BTW), and I asked if any of them played PokeMon. I heard something on the lines of "HA! Who plays PokeMon? Everyone plays DigiMon now. Get with the times." There were like, three kids in the group. A VERY weak statement. Especially when I knew at least ten kids at the school brought their cards to school every week. Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: ASR on 6 June 2008, 02:47:07 Everyone played Pokemon, nobody played Digimon.
Actually, more people collected Pokemon than played it. Mike, Etemon was the Elvis-monkey Digimon. Like, my favorite character. Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: ChaosVortex on 6 June 2008, 02:56:21 Well, where I was, a lot more kids would've played rather than collected had the school policy not been retarded. If you played cards, they'd confiscate them or something. Same crap applied in Middle School. They were afraid kids would get their cards stolen or something, so the best thing you had to do was do undercover trades or just show some of your cards for bragging rights.
Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: The Otaku on 6 June 2008, 02:57:27 Ha. That's just funny. Imagine their moded-ness when Pokemon came out with all their games and plushes and entertainment. The only Pokemon thing I don't like is the Pokemon TCG. It's dumb and it's weird. I prefer just sticking to the games.
Long ago, when I was a wee second grader, I ran out onto the yard during recess. I was so enthusiastic, because I had finally managed to sneak some Yu-Gi-Oh cards into my backpack and not let my father 'confiscate' them. I ran towards the group with all the nerdy boys who were into Pokemon and all that kid anime. I was like,"Look, look, my Yu-Gi-Oh cards!". They just stared and said,"We don't care about Yu-Gi-Oh, now it's Pokemon!" I was so downtrodden and somber. I got rejected by a bunch of nerds. By Pokemon cards. I guess that's why I'm not so fond of the Pokemon TCG. Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: ChaosVortex on 6 June 2008, 03:03:08 Yu-Gi-Oh! is far much better than PokeMon gameplay wise. PokeMon really in a nutshell consisted of playing "Energy" cards each turn and flipping coins. There's almost no strategic element.
During my Freshmen, Sophmore, and Junior years of High School, Yu-Gi-Oh! was commonly played. Some days, Magic would bust out or something rare like InuYasha or World of Warcraft, but it was usually Yu-Gi-Oh! or Magic. One time, some of them were actually playing PokeMon and I was all like "What the hell happened? This game is dead! Did Pikachu stick his hand out of the grave?" So we played PokeMon that week. No. Wait. That's right. The game sucked. We only played it for two days. The game was much more fun when I was younger. Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: preventerWIND on 6 June 2008, 03:04:27 Pokemon TGC died along(or sometime before) with the Ruby/Sapphire age. The first base set was so bomb, everyone at my school went ape ##### for Pokemon cards. I remember my brother fishing out a ruined Charizard card in the school toilet, at the time, Charizard was the Exodia of Pokemon.
Don't get me started on Digimon, I still love it to bits, the first 2 seasons were godly. 3 was okay, not my favorite by far. I still play the games as well, Digimon World DS; I highly recommend it if you like Pokemon games. But Digimon World for PS1 still continues to be one of my favorite games in history. Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: ChaosVortex on 6 June 2008, 03:07:19 Charizard was the Exodia of Pokemon. Oh, it truly was. I could never get it during my Elementary years and during the Gold/Silver age, I actually managed to assemble and awesome Fire deck consisting of two Charizards and some Enteis. A few years later, I saw in a card shop, the same ol' Charizard which I had love, NOT HOLOGRAPHIC. It was still rare, but they reprinted the card in a pack or something without making it holographic. Something about it, make me die on the inside. Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: preventerWIND on 6 June 2008, 03:09:04 I'm pretty sure it was base set #2. My cousin managed to get all 151 original Pokemon cards. I'd love to check them out some time.
Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: ChaosVortex on 6 June 2008, 03:16:56 I don't think so. I remember base set #2. It must've been some other special pack or a base set higher than #2, 'cause it was around the time I quit PokeMon and Yu-Gi-Oh! just came out.
http://cgi.ebay.com/POKEMON-Charizard-3%2F110-non-holo-ex-ULTRA-RARE-_W0QQitemZ250255432535QQcmdZViewItem?IMSfp=TL0806042072r15023 Check the icon on the card. That's not the base set 2 icon. In fact, I have no idea what set that is. Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: preventerWIND on 6 June 2008, 03:21:32 Ah, it's one of those. They probably re-released it recently.
Anyway, just a random fact I'm throwin' this out there... I love Crobat, when Platinum comes out I'm assembling a hardcore flying type team.. Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: Mikero on 6 June 2008, 03:26:02 Everyone played Pokemon, nobody played Digimon. 'Kay, I'm reaaally sure it ended well after him, with yet another incarnation Miotismon that Cari and TK had to take care of with Angiwomon and MagnaAngimon (so much gayer than Angimon who is the coolest #####er ever). Anyway the Digimon Tamers season was OK, but I completely stopped watching after it as it was getting BEYOND crap. No one in my high school played Yu-Gi-Oh or any of that because, well, we were in high school. I have a friend who collected the cards at the time though, but didn't play. And other friends of mine played VS., which at the time was limited to Marvel. Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: ChaosVortex on 6 June 2008, 03:37:28 Well, I'll still play just for the fun of it all, and I heard some kids play in college.
Although, I think it's kinda stupid since it is college. High School was one thing, college is another. Also WIND, if you read, that Charizard was NOT released "recently". I saw that dumb thing around when Yu-Gi-Oh! came out, so I'd say it's about 5-6 years old. Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: Mikero on 6 June 2008, 03:43:47 There will always be someone playing no matter their age, it's just that less and less people do the older they get.
I haven't been paying close attention to your Pokemon card discussion but Charizard came out when the TCG first came out. I remember the holofoil being particularly expensive. Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: ChaosVortex on 6 June 2008, 03:48:31 Yeah. Well that same Charizard they reprinted into a Non-Holo form. As said before, it's about 6 years old now and when I saw it, I thought it was one of the dumbest things I had ever seen.
I say the same thing about every Yu-Gi-Oh! card Upperdeck prints in a new Structure Deck as a common that was originally Ultra Rare and/or was something I worked hard to nab years ago. Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: ASR on 6 June 2008, 03:48:43 Mike, I made a mistake about the seasons. For some reason I thought Etemon was the start of Season 2 and then those 40 episodes after that with Myotismon and the 8th DigiDestined and whatnot was that the second season. I was wrong, I checked that.
About card games... nobody, not even the nerds, at my high school ever played any TCG's. I mean, maybe they did, but I never once witnessed it. Not once. No Yu-Gi-Oh!, no Pokemon, not even Magic. Middle school, though, yeah, everyone still played. Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: ChaosVortex on 6 June 2008, 03:57:06 Well, it was mostly the card game fanatics that kept it alive at school. Once they all graduated, stopped playing, or switch to Magic, everyone else stopped playing. By my Junior year, there were more card fanatics coming in as Freshmen, but they were complete douches who I'd be willing to bash in the face with a shovel without hesitation. It's still popular, but I'm not playing the game with fags.
And hell, Tourney tards even apply there. You play a simple game and they argue saying you don't know how to play or don't know how to use a certain card, and if you say anything about it, they say "they're a judge at a tournament" like it's supposed to some type of authoritic badge with ANY meaning. In short: Tourney Tards ruin Smash Bros. Tourney Tards ruin Yu-Gi-Oh! Tourney Tards ruin EVERYTHING. Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: Johncarllos on 6 June 2008, 03:58:56 I just spent like 20 minutes trying to find a new wallpaper for my desktop so I could end this card discussion.

Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: preventerWIND on 2 July 2008, 04:17:18 Stop saying hecka, its worse than hella.
Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: ASR on 2 July 2008, 04:17:35 There's nothing wrong with "hella."
Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: preventerWIND on 2 July 2008, 04:20:01 Growing up in an elementary school that loves South Park, I find the fad "hella" lasted too long, and lost its luster after the first few minutes. I find it hard not to hate.
GOOD DAY Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: Johncarllos on 2 July 2008, 04:26:21 Hella funny?
I fail to see it. Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: The Otaku on 2 July 2008, 04:41:34 Fine, I'll just speak like a human and use the word 'really'. And I think it's funny once in a while. And in those few times the strip gets hilarious.
Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: Mikero on 2 July 2008, 05:56:31 I started using hella after the No Doubt song "Hella Good" and before South Park touched on it. I was pretty much the only person I know who ever said it, but I was still getting a bit tired of it by the time South Park started with it.
Anyway I wouldn't call that desktop hecka funny. Not because I don't think it's hecka funny, but because I don't think it's hecka funny. Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: Johncarllos on 2 July 2008, 14:40:59 I find nothing humorous about it.
Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: ASR on 2 July 2008, 17:22:35 Neither do I.
I never really started SAYING "hella", but I used it every once in a while after South Park did it. Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!)

Post by: The Otaku on 2 July 2008, 23:06:57 Guys, I'm not calling the friggin' desktop funny! I meant the comic!! The wallpaper is okay, but there is definitely nothing funny about it. When I said it was 'hecka funny' I meant the comic strip at leasticoulddo.com is funny. You guys are too literal.
Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: Mikero on 2 July 2008, 23:13:06 No. Actually, we're not the ones who are wrong. I can dissect your post in a second and see that.
You said New wallpaper. Got it off of leasticoulddo.com, it's hecka funny. The first "it" refers to the subject, which you established was your "New wallpaper". Every instance of "it" after that refers to that subject until you change the subject, which you didn't, so "it's hecka funny" referred to the "New wallpaper". You should have said something more like "New wallpaper. I got it off blahblah.com, which is a hecka funny webcomic." or so. Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!)

I've heard MGS4 is good but like... It's like hour long cutscenes and stuff. That's a turn off. I love cutscenes but... #####. Man. Really? Man. #####. moar gurin lagin That one's actually cool. Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: MOX on 15 July 2008, 23:33:24 MGS3 was great, it utilized stealth more than in MGS1 IMO. Though MGS1 was more memorable for me since I played that first.
I went to my friend's house to see him play MGS4 and watched one of the cutscenes at the begining. Even 20 minutes was long though it was cool still since It explained the story somewhat. Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: Dizzy on 17 July 2008, 02:09:36 Yeah, the thing about those cutscenes is that you don't really start think it's long until your brain goes numb. *stares at MGS2 scene of doom*
Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: Vinchenz Rock on 17 July 2008, 03:13:11 MGS was far wickedder on Gamecube, so bully to you Rock. BULLY I SAY! Bully! The game wouldn't be complete without the cutscenes. Even though I sometimes want to hurry up to the gameplay, I wouldn't dare skip the cutscenes. If MGS4 only took place in the Middle East, it wouldn't have been perfect. But then there were other areas for each Act, and Act 4... oh god, if it wasn't for Act 4, the game couldn't have been more perfect. Trying not to spoil it too much, but I really think MGS4 surpasses the other games. Even though I haven't beat it yet. Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: Mikero on 17 July 2008, 03:26:54 The game wouldn't be complete without the cutscenes. Well, duh, that's rather true of any game with cutscenes. It is not an excuse, however. Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: ASR on 17 July 2008, 03:30:11 I think it's a neat idea to have such a cinematic game, but honestly I personally don't think I'd have the patience for it.
My brother and his friend ALWAYS skip cutscenes in any game no matter what, and it really bugs me because those are generally just as important as any other part of the game. I don't think my brother's ever sat through a full cut-scene, and back when we used to play games together, he'd always be the one to skip a scene while I want to watch it, and he'd just be like "oh whoops clicked Start by accident, sorry." Though that's just loosely-related venting. Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!)

(http://C:\Documents and Settings\Chrismyster\My Documents\My Pictures\Chris's Pix\untitled.JPG) I'm a sucker for old-school gaming. Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: Dragster on 5 August 2008, 11:43:11 Here's my desktop.
Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: Johncarllos on 5 August 2008, 14:51:06 Saldite, I would lose my icons in about 3 seconds on that.
Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: saldite on 5 August 2008, 19:12:01 Yeah, it took me a while to get familliar with it.
Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: Abominator on 5 August 2008, 19:43:23 Yeah, it's a good picture, but not a functional desktop.
Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: Mikero on 5 August 2008, 22:34:26 I'm a sucker for old-school gaming. Ironic, then, that it's a Wii wallpaper. Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: saldite on 5 August 2008, 23:49:52 Yes, it does say Wii on it, but it is mostly a portrayal of classic gaming.
Thus, the reason I chose it. Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: Dragster on 6 August 2008, 00:14:02 Lol, I found Cutman. XD
Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: Mikero on 6 August 2008, 02:24:53 Yes, it does say Wii on it, but it is mostly a portrayal of classic gaming. I didn't say that I didn't get it. Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: ASR on 7 August 2008, 21:46:12 I saw that ages ago and thought it was an awesome picture. I still have it saved somewhere on my computer back home.
But I would never use it as a desktop. Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: Mikero on 7 August 2008, 22:18:45 Same here on both counts.
Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: AlexThePenguin on 7 August 2008, 23:00:10 I like my retro look. It adds to the zombie effect.

I've had this game on my mind for a while... Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: Ikeoko on 9 August 2008, 01:39:45 Ok, so here's my desktop. As you can see, it is where people come and argue on who's coolest.

But I like that Rorschach one. Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: Mikero on 19 August 2008, 02:52:04 Heh.
I was either this or Dr. M and I didn't feel like being stared at a muscly blue naked man so I went with Rorschach. I'll change mine to this or the Rorschach one later on.

Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: Mikero on 10 September 2008, 23:14:44 Might change it to what my avatar is, if/when I start making M&C wallpapers.
My desktop is actually extremely messy but I just put all the icons onto each other until they were just in the one spot. Scaled down. Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: Johncarllos on 11 September 2008, 00:28:27 That is neat, albeit quite confusing.
Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: ASR on 11 September 2008, 01:39:52 "Neat" and "albeit" rhyme pleasantly.
Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: Mikero on 11 September 2008, 02:56:41 They do.
I guess it's confusing but I don't ever really look at my desktop for icons, I just open a finder window so I can go through it as a list. Besides, icons are on the right on a Mac.

Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: Shawn on 29 December 2008, 17:40:47 Well, it's LoZ, so I agree.
Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: ASR on 29 December 2008, 17:44:41 I'm sorry, but I now need to re-post my current desktop to prove that your #####ty Master Sword one is NOT the best desktop wallpaper ever.
I literally CANNOT force myself to change this desktop. No matter how hard I try, or how cool a desktop looks, I CAN'T force myself to change from this one. It makes me laugh so hard every time I see it. In fact, I even printed it out and put it in a little picture frame thing to keep above my computer, so that I'd still be able to look at the picture after I changed my desktop background. The thing is, I still haven't changed my desktop background. And I'm starting to think that I never will. (Image is a JPG because the PNG was 1.2 MB) Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: Shawn on 29 December 2008, 17:46:51 I can't stop laughing at this picture. It's just too good. Could I save this?
ps: Iron Man for the win. Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: Johncarllos on 29 December 2008, 17:50:01 Hey.
I got you the high res version of that image. And mine is still good regardless. Posted on: December 29, 2008, 12:49:36 PM I can't stop laughing at this picture. It's just too good. Could I save this?Dude, I can get you the original. Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: Shawn on 29 December 2008, 17:51:05 Yeah, it's still good, but it's certainly not funny. (if you're talking about your Master Sword topic.)
Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: Johncarllos on 29 December 2008, 18:01:04 Well, not funny at all.
Just sweet. Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: Shawn on 29 December 2008, 18:02:13 Oh, could I have the original to ASR's desktop?

Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: Johncarllos on 29 December 2008, 18:18:23 The internet will provide.

Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: ASR on 29 December 2008, 19:58:28 Which is terrible quality.
But yeah, I posted it on Photobucket but it automatically shrinks it down so it's not worth it. But... whatever. Just realized that the original file ISN'T too big to post here.

Guess why there's a folder called "move this stuff.") It is drawn by Lumi (http://lemdrop.deviantart.com/art/DrowLove-WIP-Screenshot-107810388), who is made of awesome. I dunno if I'll update it when he's done colouring, I kinda like the grey. I should at least reorganize the folders so Flan's face isn't obscured... Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: ASR on 1 January 2009, 17:04:45 I have a folder on my desktop now marked "Porn," and when you open it, there's just an empty text file named "MADE YOU LOOK."

Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: AlexThePenguin on 25 February 2009, 19:14:03 I was originally looking for something similar to the new Telus commercial, since I actually find lizards and salamanders and the like to be quite adorable.
I can't figure out for the life of me the species of salamander in it, though. ): It makes it incredibly hard to find photos of it. Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: Mikero on 25 February 2009, 19:55:58 I can only find their chameleon pictures.
Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: AlexThePenguin on 25 February 2009, 20:01:14 Yeah, I know. ):
It's their newest commercial, though, so maybe that's why. I wonder how I'd go about asking their persons-responsible-for-advertising what species that is. Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: Mikero on 26 February 2009, 21:19:29 Actually, it probably wouldn't be that odd. I have a feeling they get that a lot.
Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: AlexThePenguin on 27 February 2009, 08:55:37 I mean, how to contact them. For all their commercials, I don't know how to contact them.
Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: Mikero on 2 March 2009, 22:06:43 Through their website. E-mail someone.

Just got a new laptop. First time on Windows 7. Loving it. So yeah, it's an ASUS laptop. I had a default background, but I changed it to this. Looking forward to hi-fiving anyone public who sees it and compliments it. Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!)

Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: ChaosVortex on 2 September 2011, 06:03:58 My old computer is terrible and can't play anything. This laptop counts as both.
Braid, BTW, is incredible. Never played it until now. Title: Re: Matricians: Show your desktops! (Not dial-up friendly!) Post by: Winged Warrior on 8 September 2011, 20:49:36 Edited for your fourteen year old innocence.
