Hehe, I know, it can be used for other stuff too, but still....risky to post that.



Then again, I do have an emulator on my desktop. I do that legally, I have a thing that lets me game on my computer from my GBA, but it's still risky for me too.

Well, that's true, but since it can also be used legally (which I'm doing), I don't see any reason to worry...

IMO the emulator can be thought as worse than the alcohol, since mostly emulators are used to illegal use only...

Actually, sometimes I also have a desktop inappropriate to be showing on here. But usually just plain blue. I could use some more variety, I guess.

@ Robnark.

The family desktop is a brilliant picture. Is that Pamplona?

um, I vaguely recall that it's from another place that does the same kind of thing, but I could be wrong. unfortunately the photographer's a friend-of-a-friend-of-a-friend so I haven't been able ask them.

You can listen to a few samples from their previous album here at Amazon.

You can also listen to a few songs from their most recent album here at Lacuna Coil's MySpace page.

You can also visit http://www.pandora.com and enter Lacuna Coil along with Nightwish to a playlist and get a decent sample of similar music from them and other artists (e.g. Leaves' Eyes, Elis, The Crest, etc.).

No problem. I have gmail so that's always an option, I can send large files, or I can upload it for you somewhere so your choice

I cleaned her up a bit for you guys, because it was full of temporary imagefiles... But here she is:

My family's PC desktop

Enjoy.

I got bored while cooking and eating dinner, so I redid my desktop. Photobucket resized it, but it was at 1280x1024 resolution.

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2...ktop5-7-06.gif

Lets see here, going from top left corner across:

*My ex Kristyn when she was 15 and we first met.
*Kaia the baby girl I watched Jan - June 2005 for a friend. *My only full sibling Matt cooking next to me staring at the pack of Molson XXX which I pasted near him as you can see.
*Cover art for two albums, the first one is for one of my favorite albums, and the second, well can anyone guess the one in the top right corner?

Next row:

* Cute kitten, had to use it.
*Tiny picture of Jenica from behind while walking into Lake Michigan..2 years ago I believe.
* Under that, Domingo!
*Next to those two, a little sign I have always found amusing.
* Matt again, playing DJ at the week long party at Rachel's. I love that picture, it was just before he fell over and decided to save his beer rather than catch his fall.
*The Captain, reminds me to drink responsibly
*Artwork I happen to like and actually, that reminds me, I wanted to order a copy today.

Next row:

*Abstract sketch of Lina, her viewpoint of how she feels around me after the odd situation when she hit her head in Rome and lost her memory. It is an odd self-portrait, but aside from the lack of eyes and too-long arms, it does look like her.
*A photo of Jenica being a tease.
*Under that, a slogan from an old poster about the drug ether I found.
*Next to that is Josh, Rachel and Sandy on our old couch in the apartment I used to share with Josh and Rachel, completely and totally ripped. I like that one.


Now, time to move my taskbar back to it's rightful position...the bottom.
