Ok everyone...lets see 'em.  Every forum needs (or has) a thread to show off those more aethsetic tweaks.  That...and I'm pretty exited about my new Y'z Dock bar!  So here's mine...

Not XP but a desktop nonetheless :P

They say a picture's worth a thousand words, but screw them, I can describe my desktop in much less.

Classic style, blue destop, recycle bin, and three quick lauch icons.

Oh, and the clock.

Genius, I'll have to agree.  Your description is probably more eventful than your particular desktop. 

pho3nix, 

For reasons unknown to me I suck something awful at selecting the correct emoticon for any particular situation.  (Perhaps it is because I am a writer and not, say, an artist.) 

Anyway, I get the feeling that for this post to have had the most impact, I should have simply posted an emoticon and nothing else.  (At least not this dribble I am now writing.)  The emoticon I should have selected would be the one that conveyed the meaning of, Hey, good one!  I got you.  Funny!  And right back atcha, kiddo!  But because I suck so badly at selecting emoticons, I would have probably posted this one: .  

This, no doubt, would have left you saying to yourself, "What the hell does that mean?"  And you being very nice and much better at selecting emoticons than I, would then respond with the appropriate: , , and, finally, a  (to soften the blow).

To which I would once again respond with the ridiculously inappropriate: .

So to avoid all that, just imagine me nodding to you and saying, "Good one, pho3nix.  Good one, indeed."

To which I would once again respond with the ridiculously inappropriate: .

A writer, you truly are.

Hi, Genius!

  I tried to post my Royal Blue desktop with all of its 12 cut jewel icons, but I don't quite know how. Could do it as an attachment but have never done it this way. Got the load started but there is a 15K limit and when I checked mine it was 5.3MB, so I quickly canceled.

   Man! Am I ever glad we didn't attempt the Binary Ball in this circus. Very glad we decided to wait.

   good seeing you here. later, bro.
