Re: Post Your DesktopThanks(Original post by xeonman9000)
Holy crap, that's beautiful
, could you upload the original? The higher the resolution the better.
It turned out a lot better than I expected, but at hi-res the sky is a bit noisy and the bridge loses some detail (again, due to noise) as I had to set the ISO to 800 or something (it was almost pitch black at the time.) The original RAW file is ~8MB and the jpeg is close to 3MB. I'd be happy to pass it on to you

Re: Post Your Desktop
Click to make it fullsize. It's quite big so decided against posting it straight onto the page.
Could do with updating the wallpaper, really.
4 corners, 4 areas for icons. Top left - computer stuff, top right - Uni stuff, bottom left - Web development stuff, bottom right - Harddrives (duh!). -

Re: Post Your DesktopCheers, you can either catch me on MSN (xeonman9000[AT]hotmail.com), or upload it with http://www.megaupload.com/ or a similar site. Preferably the RAW image.(Original post by visesh)

Re: Post Your DesktopMy last windows based desktop! Except for boot camp...
waa waa waa. That my impression of you.While everyone who uses a Mac has such radical desktops; most of the people I know with Macs haven't even changed their fricking desktop background - still, perhaps such a task is beyond identokit Mac users...Last edited by TheThirdMan; 27-04-2007 at 23:43. -

Re: Post Your DesktopNice work, was going to add shading etc, but i like the simplicity, same on your enzo, the simplicity makes it look better IMO(Original post by TheThirdMan)

Re: Post Your DesktopIndeedly. Shading only looks good on certain things. Ferraris are way too complex to do proper shading.Nice work, was going to add shading etc, but i like the simplicity, same on your enzo, the simplicity makes it look better IMO -

Re: Post Your DesktopWhat's your problem?(Original post by TheThirdMan)
waa waa waa. That my impression of you.
I was just commenting that TomX seemed to think that Windows users have boring backgrounds by default, simply as if the choice of their operating system limits them to a 'car/woman/lanscape/etc', whilst I was saying that at least most of the people I know who use Windows at least do change their default background, whilst most of the Mac users I know don't - this may not be an accurate extrapolation of data, but it is simply my experience, c'est tout.

what do you mean, no printscreen shortcut in Vista?
