The Post Your Desktop Thread

[Thany]

Just felt like putting one of my desktop's wallpapers (note that the recycle bin is gone now :P).

[ARNEL98]

replaced my amee-lookalike wall with this one...

[Oujirou]

One of my favorite wallpapers ^_^

You can check Neowin for more info regarding that.

Yeah I know about those two sites, I get wallpapers for my Mac from Customize, and browse the Mac section of the Neowin forum. I'm very interested in Lite Step, can anyone shed more light on it, I didn't find too much that actually helped

Spoiler:

DogmaX + a wallpaper I made (again). Looks pretty nifty, methinks.

I admit it's a great looking desktop and everything, but all that eye candy has just about got to be killing that system dead in the water. Now on the otherhand, that wallpaper just rocks.

An experiment in Photoshop filters that didn't turn out so bad...



...and somehow became my interm wallpaper. Although mine's of a larger resolution, I uploaded the wrong one to the host by mistake. ^^;

Thanks for the info! Must look into this. Hopefully it won't eat up what little's left of my processor though.

I have to admit you're right. His wallpaper made just the right background to set off your choice of foreground. I also think you did a top rate job of merging the two into a perfect whole. Definite improvement!

Woooo, thanks to riftwing letting me know about this, I now have a some sweet drop shadows and composite rendering:

Spoiler:

Thanks riftwing. Didn't know that they had this already. I didn't have to get it from their CVS tree, however. There are official ebuilds out for the testing versions. Just had to add them to my package.unmask and package.keywords file. xcompmgr and transset were also in portage.

@Lord Raiden: Its not really resouce intensive. My idle cpu load is around 15-20% ( P4 2.4Ghz) and that's with azureus running in the background. I have a cript that turns off all eye candy when playing games though...
