Bump and update.

EDIT: Interesting fact: I took the picture myself.

Another bump.

This
<------------------
is my desktop. I didn't believe the original knife-face image to be evil looking enough, so I changed the background and color of the eyes for a more demonic image. I might change some more graphics to make it look even cooler, but I don't have the patience or time to do that at the moment.

I have no idea if the image was copyrighted or not. If it was, I'll replace it with an older (and cooler) image of the DROD RPG.

The image isn't a high enough definition for me to stretch across the whole screen and still retain some goodness to it. If a person looks at it from far away, it looks a little better.

Again, apologies if the image turned out to be copyrighted.

I'm surprised that you found that image, given that you've only been on the forum 10 days. Or were you trying to sneak into caravel's stuff?

I was around a lot longer here as just a guest. I've seen a lot of things as a guest, and even more as a user.

He's seen attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. He's watched c-beams glitter in the dark near the Tanhauser Gate. He...never mind.

Egads - I valiantly hold off on cracking that joke, only to be beaten over the head with it shortly thereafter.

(Still one of my favourite movie endings - makes me teary-eyed every time I watch it... go figure.)

Eh, random update - because I want to. The second GNOME foot is for when I have to open Nautilus as root. Been mostly untouched for now.
Also, disregard the filename

Well, here's also an update - mainly due to upgrading from XP to Windows 7...

Heh. It's amazing how you don't truly appreciate caffeine 'till you're on a school computer that doesn't have it

I was totally going to rag on Tahnan for not spelling "Tannhauser" correctly, because, well, he's Tahnan. Then I double-checked by Google, and apparently the script has it with one n.

Alright, so on my laptop which I got for college, I've got both Mac OS X Leopard and Windows Vista (via Apple Boot Camp). Here is a screenshot of the Mac side, which I use as the primary side:

Maybe you were surprised because, not unreasonably, you expected it to be spelled the same as the original Tannhauser?

Update as requested, but actually it hasn't changed much in 3 years! I now know how to change the picture; I just haven't found one I want to live with yet.

Before returning to college for my second year I updated the Windows side of my laptop to Windows 7, so here is what it looks like now:

BasiliskII and Sheepshaver? Nice.

Noticed you also use Flux... Have you noticed any weird issues with that and DROD?

I can't think of any DROD-specific flux issues, though when I awake the computer from sleep, flux is disabled for about a half a second. I have also found that Basilisk tends to lag in more recent versions of OS X.

This is what happens when flux is active on my machine. All the colors get weird.

It's been awhile since I've posted in this thread. I took the background photo here six years ago just as I was leaving Alcatraz Island after a tour.

I kind of change between the pictures of fire and the water as my desktop. When I'm in foul mood, I have all red on my desktop. When I'm chill I have water / blue.
