It's XP after this some changes, because I heard there's possibility to change it outlook to this which is in Vista? And I also have XP ;)

hey, random question. How do you move the icons around on the desktop so they stay? On my computer, they always get dragged back to the left side.

But, anyway, new background on my Halo 3 character looking awesome.

Image

(anyway, I've looked through the rules first. This picture isn't explicit, nor is it visibly violent, so it should be fine. There have been worse things posted then this, in this very thread as well, so I'd expect it'll be fine. This is all my opinion though, even if I believe the majority of people would agree with me.)

You asked where the picture came from and the artist's profiles on deviantArt and Furaffinity.net have been provided. You can presumably find it there. Back on topic.

It was removed. :c

On the other hand. I was toying around with using videos as a wallpaper by taking advantage of windows 7's DWM and what it makes possbile.

I extracted the video from the game(720p only though) and converted it to a suitable format. Then used "Dreamscene" to use it as a wallpaper. It requires a GPU with video decoding hardware acceleration otherwise its unusable. It wasn't on his FA gallery either, btw.

Anyways, new tabletpc wallpaper. :3

Not really too big. That's the standard resolution now. o 3o. The forums will downscale it automatically anyways.

Anyways, new Portal 2 wallpaper. :3 (on my tablet, I basically never use my desktop directly. <_<)
