Post A Pic of Your Desktop

Post by sparda »

Well here it is, the obligatory "desktop" thread. I'm curious as to how your desktops look. I don't mean to boast, but I know mine is kinda cool 8-)
The pic was made by one of my idols, John Su (aka Mousekliks from deviant art). This is the guy that I aim to be like, using both sides of the brain
(creativity/artistic and logic/knowledge). Both sides served him well as he's working in the video game industry... at the tender age of 24!

Dear god, they actually ported ES to a piece of celery!

Ha I try to keep mine clean, a small square at the top right is fine... I just have nests of 50 folders... but whatever... although I keep things that I use frequently on the desktop, or something I'm working on.

I Like a nice clean desktop with everything organized to be easy to find(a necessity when you have as much total data as me).
Page isn't wide enough... Desktop

I see a few people using google Chrome, which is a good thing!

Anyway, Falco I noticed that you have the, ahem, calculus book by James Stewart ("5E" thingy), I have the solution book. If you have the actual book in pdf form, would you mind, eh, passing it along :mrgreen:

If it's too much to ask then forget that I asked, I won't be offended.

I don't even come from london, but I had the chance to go with my economics(before I dropped it) group to london, but it was chucking it down with rain!, so everyone has their umbrellas out, except the cameraman, I got soaked 8-)

PS: I also have chrome :P
