Question Let's see your desktop

A year or so ago someone got started a thread about this and some of the pics were great so I thought I'd start another one. How about posting a picture of your desktop: background, wallpaper, icons and all. In mine, the pics is of my 2 boys playing like squirels hiding. It's one of my all-time favorite pics of my boys. What's on your desktop?

Hey Tater, nice desktop. I think those are rock squirrels hiding there. And . . . she's a heckuva wine opener ain't she . . . My desktop has so many icons you can't see any pics, Waidmannsheil, Dom.

Yeah, Dom, those Rock Squirels can be the biggest pain in the A$$ and my greatest joy at the same time. Amazing. I've actually got a wine opener very similar to that one

I might have as many icons as Dom, so Ill show the wallpaper pic itself.
I took this pic of the "lil lady" from about 20y.

BTW Tater: I like your new signature, but...

This is it for right now (and it's not a bad pic, LOL). It changes every few months, give or take.

Okay, I have no idea how to capture my desktop as a screen shot and I don't feel like getting out the digital camera right now.

So, who can send me the wine opener file? I am dying to see this thing.

Also, who is the woman in gd357's pic. Is that the girl from Pearl Harbor with Ben Afleck? If it is the woman I am thinking about, I think she has starred in a couple other movies. Ah yes, her name is Kate Beckinsdale (sp.). Am I correct on this one, or is it a completely different woman in the pic?

NO DESKTOP PICTURES. I'M LIKE DOM, ALL ICONS. I USTA HAVE ONE OF HEATHER MYLES, MY FAVORITE SINGER BUT SHE DIDN'T LOOK SO GOOD WITH THE ICON TATOO'S .

YOU KNOW CHILDREN ARE OUR PRE-PAY TO HEAVEN.

I ALWAYS LIKED BILL COSBY'S TAKE ON KIDS. READ THE BOOK "FATHERHOOD" SOMETIME.

HE'S HAVING A HEART TO HEART TALK WITH HIS SON AND HE SAYS "BOY, I BROUGHT YOU INTO THIS WORLD AND I CAN TAKE YOU OUT. WHATS MORE YOUR MOTHER AND I CAN MAKE ANOTHER ONE JUST LIKE YA." IT'S A GREAT BOOK.

Heh gd357, I should have tried to save the photo earlier because the name of it would have given the actress/model away. I just saved it now and saw that it was named katebeckinsale1a. Now, is there a 1b or 2a, and if so, how about sharing. LOL

After seeing the pic, I went and did some online searching for Kate Beckinsale and she wasn't all that hot about 10+ years ago. Amazing what several years, and possibly some plastic surgery, can do for a woman. Then again, some men look better with age, and then other men and women only get worse with age. Funny isn't it. Of course, with too much age, we all look like crap.

I posted my work desktop, and now for my home desktop.

Fabs, to get a screen capture of your desktop, just hit your print screen button, and then paste into paint or a nother program similar.. if you can save it as a .jpg image, the file size will be smaller.

Hope that helps you.

I usually change my desktop a fair bit. But I haven't changed either of mine in awhile. Both images have a profound meaning to me.
