I would participate in this thread, but it's just annoying that I can't simply upload a photo to the thread like on other boards.

This has to be the post of the day:

Nice desktop, Scootaloo. A beautiful solar eclipse in the clouds as seen from a plane. Very nice! Also, nice uploads!!! I bookmarked that page and I'll probably switch desktops each day!

Here's from my same (laptop) computer this time with a picture. The first desktop was generic wallpaper that came with the OS, but I liked the color and texture of it. (I have another computer that also runs this OS and looks similar).

It's easy to upload a screenshot. Just take a picture of your desktop, save it, and then click the "insert image" icon. It will ask if you want to upload a picture from a URL or your computer. Choose your computer and then navigate to the folder and file name that you named your desktop picture.

The "insert image" icon is the 6th one from the RIGHT of your reply tool bar --- the same line as the B I U, etc. for formatting. It should work.

You know that you can set a slideshow of pictures that you've chosen to be your desktop? You can actually download a bunch of pictures, and then set them all as your desktop. Then you can set them to change every minute, 5 minutes, 20 minutes, hour, 2 hours, or 24 hours, I think.

Ok, it worked, but it lost a lot, being shrunk like that!

Yeah, I can't do that right now. But I can download an app to do that for me, I'll probably try later. I guess I'm from the old school of thought. It never even occurred to me to change background pictures by themselves! :lol

Oh no! Rotating backgrounds has been a feature in Windows for years! Is this a plus for Microsloth? :lol

Pardonez vous? :lol

If you mean my desktop background, it ain't Rivendell. :) It's actually an artists impression based on the S.T.A.L.K.E.R. video-game trilogy which is set in the irradiated zone surrounding the Chernobyl nuclear reactor. Cheery! :biglol

Now that I look at it, it does look amazingly similar to Rivendell!

Oh, I get it... You want us to right click the desktop and hide the icons first and then make the screenshot, right? ;) Seriously, my desktop would scare you. I have more icons than the screen itself can fit, so to see them all I have to use an explorer window. :lol I'm a URL shortcut fiend.
