i've seen this on a couple diff forums that i usually visit. well what u do is post a screenshot of your desktop (to show it off ;) ), i know this may be a bad idea, but desktop posting threads on websites i usually visit are one of the most popular threads out there since ppl change their desktop looks constantly...
well enjoy n have fun :D

That's actually a really good idea. Post the results when you're done with that macaztec, i'd like to see how it looks.

btw: there's already a thread for pics of your desktop, as pointed out by mac15...
 
Most likely, yes. The maximum file size for attachments is 102400 bytes (roughly 100k?).

Just shrink it in ps or something.

Go to the iTools section at Apple.com and signup for an iDisk. They'll give you 20 megs of free space for what ever you'd like to put there, files, webpages, images, movies etc.

That's a nice variation on the standard background in OS X. What's the black line running down the right for though?

I suppose it's just a dividing line that was put there by whomever created the desktop...it works well since in OS 9 everything defaults to the right side...

but as u can see...it's really not relevant to me....I have stuff everywhere....he he he ;)
 
I don't change my desktop all that often, but I have one that I used for a while before I was on the boards here that I'll share, since I'm doing so work for the project on my other machine. Its a free lance job for a screen saver animation. This was one of the optional backgrounds I came up with.

listen to what britboy says :p lol
n if u do create an acct at tripod.co.uk/mac.com (or if u have one), just upload the image (preferably in jpeg format) and on the forums type in (for example) [ img ]http://members.lycos.co.uk/memberusername/imagename.jpg[ /img ] (remove space right b4 img and after so the image will show up) so it will save arn some bandwidth n space ;)

click here 2 go to tripod

click here to go to mac.com

The image seemed cropped. I like the Think Timeless image, saw that over at SpyMac. Nicely done and an even better idea.

I actually got that from the spymac gallerys like it, I haven't touched it.

But the words are cut off on the Think Timeless part, and even more of the image is missing. That's what I meant. What do you see when you click the link?

I see the two full desktops (dual screen) total image size 2560 x 1024.
 
What browser are you using? I might be able to view the whole image because of the width, not sure. It is weird.

Ah, I copied it to my desktop and viewed it and it looks fine. IE on OS9 can't view the whole thing.
 
This is what I typically have on my desktop... I found the background a while ago, but don't remember the site off the top of my head.
