HAY GUYS

In the spirit of actually following through with my New Year's resolution (9 months after the fact) I am trimming some fat off my diet. I'm going to start with the old thread because it had 760 posts. Anyway, you guys know how this works so go about your business.

Those of you who are new to this here's some pointers:

0. This should go without saying, but please be courteous and don't start getting uppity and take moral offense to other people's desktops or color schemes. (This means YOU, Merv.)

1. Please don't attach your wallpapers to your post. Instead, upload them to your own personal webspace or ask a friend to do it and link it here. Imageshack, Photobucket, Imagesocket and ImageRedirect are perfectly good alternatives so use them. This way we don't take up too much server space with attachments. If we see any posts containing attachments they will be cut like the fat kid from nationball.

2. Please don't stretch the tables of the postbit. All the image hosting sites above have some kind of automatic thumbnail function readily available when you upload your images so please make wise use of those features. Posts that stretch the tables will be deleted.

3. Do not make a post updating a new desktop picture every hour. Using this thread to boost your postcount will not be tolerated.

4. ?????

5. Profit

Here's my new desktop for 09/09/09:

That's Pleepleus, the official mascot of the show Three Sheets with a mojito. Icons are called Arcade Daze and can be found here.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Just installed Snow Leopard. My bowtie theme of choice has been mangled by the new version of core image, so in the meantime I'm using a plainer one.

^ Hm, the Beatles have popped up in conversation multiple times today. And I like the look & feel of that image host -- never heard of it before.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

Pretty new to Vista so I haven't done anything remotely interesting with the icons/desktop. I think I tried to change them once and it reverted the next day. I've gotten rid of about half the icons there since taking the pic.

Also the eyesore of a background is a bokeh that I made through some tutorial I found.

How ya doing, buddy?

Well, the new remasters of all their albums came out today, along with the video game. Something of a hot topic, I guess.

Imgur's great - I've moved away from photos.cx on account of the fact that it automatically converts overly-huge png files to jpeg, which is useful for OS X screenshot conversion. Large thumbnail feature can't be faulted, either. You should edit in a mention of it in the opening post, Paco; Imageshack is a horrible horrible piece of shit in comparison.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

lol, oh... yes, that would be a very good reason for the multiplicity of Beatles mentions on that day.

Spent a few hours overhauling the shit out of everything. New icons, dock, contact list, Growl style and Bowtie theme. Decided to go for a bright wallpaper this time.

My new growl style (Basics) is gorgeous:
