I got the all-time boring desktop!

(And yes, this is my every-day-not-just-for-MR desktop)

haha, nice. you bring up a good point, though. I wonder how many people there are that actually take the time to make it look cool and interesting just for posting here, versus the people that don't. I, for one, posted exactly what I look at everyday in my post a few pages back (the triple screen setup)
 
Well, it is 12:43 AM on Tuesday 1 May here in Seoul, Korea, so it is time for the new thread.

Here's my latest. It's Lord of the Rings, available from InterfaceLIFT.

Seoul, eh? Nice :)
What are you doing there?
 


Theme: Canum by ToNer
Icons: QuickLook Canum SE by Jonas Rask
Wallpaper: Canum gradient by Jonas Rask (included with Canum theme)
 
A new one. Unlike some people, I love Adobe's new "periodic table" style icons. Oh yea, and this is one the FINEST asses I have ever seen. :D

Wow, you really love the periodic table style icons! Looks good! Although I'd have trouble spotting the app I want and running any other program not on the dock would p**s me off since its icon wouldn't match!

Thought about that. But I figured that that is why I have Quicksilver, to launch whatever is not in the dock. Which is hard for me, because my dock always spans the length of my screen. But I really want a very streamlined desktop now. There are a ton of apps in the icon list, but some I dont have and some I do have but use too much, so I didnt see the need to put them in the dock.

Even though tomorrow is the last day of May, and I'll still most likely have this same set up on Thursday, I'll still post on this month's board!!

I likey. Link?

Also, which contact list style and message window styles are those? (for adium)
 
Wallpaper

I had to crop it to my liking since it wasn't a widescreen format.

For the message style just use whatever one you want and then make the background a color (I chose black) and then adjust the transparency of it...same for the contact list. They're both just standard themes that come with adium...just tweaked a bit.
 
Hey Vazza,

that's an awesome wallpaper? So simple and clean... do you have a link for it?

Thanks! :D (keane is a great band :))

Nice.

What's the app that displays the Album Artwork on the desktop ?

Lots in photo and color work make their desktops and theme all grey to help with accurate color represhentation. While it's cool to look at, having a desktop with a car or something on it can get in the way of accurately working with colors.

It's part of the Canum theme by ToNer. Here's the link to the theme:

Open up the .dmg and the wallpapers are in the "Extras" bit...the one I'm using is Canum gradient.

Oh and I agree with both of you about Keane...I was lucky enough to see them live a while back :D
 
Same! I saw keane live in bangkok when I was down there for vacation last year... was freaking great! :D

thanks for the link btw!
 
A composite of two...Adium, the dock and the menubar are on autohide (until now, I didn't have the Apple, so my desktop was even cleaner) :)
