nilson Posted February 20, 2005 Posted February 20, 2005 Forgive me if this is a repost of anything; I didn't see any other screenshot thread. Quote
Bruno Posted February 20, 2005 Posted February 20, 2005 Good idea Nilson . . . a 2005 screenshot thread ! ( I was unable to find the 2004 one myself )Here you go . . . my Slackware 10.1 desktop:. . . . . . << Click to enlarge I like it simple and clean Bruno Quote
Neil P Posted February 20, 2005 Posted February 20, 2005 Mine is very, very boring. I didn't even change the default wallpaper! (To be fair, I just re-installed not too long ago, and wallpaper isn't high on my list of things to do...or themes.):w00tx100:Neil Quote
securitybreach Posted February 20, 2005 Posted February 20, 2005 http://www.angelfire.com/linux/bael/screen...x.album?i=0&s=1My slackware 10.1 under kde 3.3.2 Quote
Bruno Posted February 20, 2005 Posted February 20, 2005 Nice pics Guys !!Adam, . . . yours is really funny ! :DBreach, . . . another transparency adapt ! . . . Cool ;)Nilson, . . . . great job on customising ! :thumbsup:Neil, . . . . . . you better get your skates on and do something about that one :PB) Bruno Quote
Neil P Posted February 20, 2005 Posted February 20, 2005 Neil, . . . . . . you better get your skates on and do something about that one <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Heh. Well, I've changed the background and style, but it's hard to notice since all of the apps I run are gtk apps. Gaim, Firefox, Mozilla, The Gimp, those are probably my top 4, so the theme doesn't get used.It still looks pretty much the same, I haven't made anything transparent or added any apps to the desktop.

Bruno Posted February 20, 2005 Posted February 20, 2005 LOl . . .was just teasing you Neil . . . . . . . no worries ( the backgound is nice ) Bruno Quote
Plukaduk Posted February 21, 2005 Posted February 21, 2005 (edited) Here's the wallpaper that I use on Mandrake, it's not a screen shot as I'm in Winders at the moment... Thanks Neil for the thumbnail link... Edited February 21, 2005 by Plukaduk Quote
rakemup Posted February 21, 2005 Posted February 21, 2005 (edited) My desktop shows my other serious passion.Picture taken in Pittsburgh in the 20's --- scanned and resized to 1024x768.http://img75.exs.cx/my.php?loc=img75â„‘=desktop7rk.pngWoops --- why won't this image display? EDIT: Made the location into a link- ross549trying again ............ Edited February 22, 2005 by rakemup Quote
réjean Posted February 21, 2005 Posted February 21, 2005 (edited) Hi rakemup!You forgot to close yor tag! Just add [/img] after your url.P.S. removing the at the beginning is another way. As you just demonstated. It's a nice old picture btw. Edited February 21, 2005 by réjean Quote
réjean Posted February 21, 2005 Posted February 21, 2005 (edited) Hi again!Let me try both ways with a picture of our garden last summer to se if it works.First a single paste:http://ca.pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/laudire2y...f23.jpg&.src=phOk! You're right rakemup. Using the tag doesn't work! Maybe the other can tell us how they did it? Edited February 21, 2005 by réjean Quote
Bruno Posted February 21, 2005 Posted February 21, 2005 RéjeanThere can be 2 reasons for that:1). If I click on that link I get: "The File You Are Looking For Is Inaccessible." . . and it tells me I have to log in ;)2). You can not post images that size . . . . see Forum Rules: Please Read . . . that is why we post a thumbnail that links to the real sized pic out on the net: [url=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx][img=yyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy][/url]  ( The first address xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx is the remote big pic . . .the second address yyyyyyyyyyyyyy between the IMG tags, is the thumbnail . . . so in fact you have to upload 2 files . . . a small and a big one ) Bruno Be considerate of people who have slower Internet connections. An image displayed within a message on Scot's Newsletter Forums should be no wider than 480 pixels. And if you can make the image smaller, please do.Our thumbnails are between 150 and 180 pix wide . . . . the remote pix are "real" size Quote
Bruno Posted February 21, 2005 Posted February 21, 2005 Here is the desktop of my Drake 10.1. . . . . . . I made it a bit more interesting by showing the output of my backup-script in a transparant eterm and having my favorite station on xmms ;) BrunoPS: See Here how to make a thumbnail from a screenshot Quote

Neil P Posted February 21, 2005 Posted February 21, 2005 If you upload a picture to http://www.imageshack.us (free!) it will automatically give you a thumbnail (and the correct BBCode to post it!):w00tx100:Neil Quote
Bruno Posted February 21, 2005 Posted February 21, 2005 Neil,Wow that is a cool service !!! Bruno Quote
havnblast Posted February 21, 2005 Posted February 21, 2005 yea I was editing it - need to have the file upload turned on for this - it works much better and does the auto thumbnail for you Quote
SonicDragon Posted February 21, 2005 Posted February 21, 2005 I love the transparent terminals everyone!My desktop is pretty plain. Usually a picture from digital blasphemy or some other art site and that's about it.Lately i've been playing around with XFCE, so here's GIMP, the control panel, and a terminal open in that:Screen Shot Quote
réjean Posted February 21, 2005 Posted February 21, 2005 (edited) Hi all!I have downloaded Neil's suggestion and here should be my Xandros screenshot:P.S. It worked! Thanks a million Neil. Don't know what the black lines are doing there but for a first trial it ain't bad. I have to tell you that after trying to install Bruno's suggestion I tried for a solid hour to upload a snapshot that I wa s saving as "jpeg" using Paint in Xandros but kept being denied so I installed Gimp and it worked first try.I like ImageShack already. It seems to work a lot better than Yahoo Picture.On another forum where I spend a lot of time we can upload directly from our own machine and don't have to use an online program to add a picture.Thanks again for the suggestion, Neil.

réjean Posted February 21, 2005 Posted February 21, 2005 (edited) Hi all!One more attempt at the screen shot from my Drake distro. What can I say we love our garden so much that we've gotta see it even in winter. Edited February 21, 2005 by réjean Quote
Bruno Posted February 21, 2005 Posted February 21, 2005 LOL . . Réjean . . A few years ago I had my garden on my desktop too:Just so I would miss no minute of sunshine when I was behind my computer at night :DB) Bruno Quote
