Show us your screen! (56k Users BEWAAAAAARE!)

Well, these photo threads are always fun, but here's one with a twist. Instead of showing yourself, show your desktop!

How to get a screenshot in Windows:

1. Press the PrtScn key on your keyboard
2. Copy in to Microsoft Paint
3. Save as a PNG file and upload to ImageShack

How to get a screenshot in Linux:

1. Open Gimp
2. Click File > Aquire > Screenshot
3. Set the delay to about 10 seconds so you have time to minimize Gimp
4. Save as a PNG file and upload to ImageShack

Note: To keep this 56k friendly, use the thumbnails and link to the Hi-res image. Thanks.

Without further ado, here's my screenshot. Running Fedora Core 5:

It's simple, but I like it.

Now it's your turn!

Ah,I see I'm not the only one running FireFox 2 Beta 1!

You should really organize your icons! Put all your emulators on a folder on your desktop, & Auto-arrange them! (*Right-Click*>"Arrange Icons By">"Auto Arrange")

I can't take a screenshot now because I have a lot of work stuff all over the desktop, so I'll describe it:

WIndows XP Professional with the Windows Classic appearance, with the Longhorn "grass" wallpaper, set at 1280x1024, chock full of icons. I mean there's NO ROOM on my desktop WHAT SO EVER. Kinda odd, seeing as my laptop is running Fluxbox as the primary WM...
