The Desktop Thread.

Simply put, post your desktop. If not the desktop, then the background you use. To make loading images easier, spoiler your image.

I shall begin.

You may guess once what I enjoy playing on Steam.

 

[Rylot]

I was using a Dark Souls character guide for my background for the longest time but since my computer crashed af few days ago I went and found this and started using it.

It covers both my cartoon habits and D&D hobby.

Edit: Fixed the size.

Had this for about a month now. It's FLCL for those who don't know.

 

[Terminate421]

Go ahead, be jealous. I like this badass looking owl:

By the way This was my old wallpaper:

[Scarim Coral]

I use this wallpaper

Spoiler: Bunny from the anime Tiger and Bunny

I was getting bored of my usual Guild Wars 2 related wallpaper and wanted something new. Since I love Tiger and Bunny and the background to that wallpaper is dark while the image itself is not crowdy, it was perfect for me.

 

[TheRightToArmBears]

Spoiler

I use this, it's a piece by Paul Romano, who did all the pre-Hunter Mastodon artwork, although I'm not actually sure if this was for them or not, although I'm pretty sure it's for the Crack the Skye album. Cool as fuck though.

 

[Calibanbutcher]

Here we go then:

Spoiler: Yep, double monitor set-up inbound

 

[Jynthor]

My background is the best ass in video games.

Spoiler

Even Miranda can't beat that.

 

[Johnny Novgorod]

Bow chicka bow wow.

Had this for about a month now. It's FLCL for those who don't know.

And I thought my desktop was neat.

 

[Total LOLige]

I have no icons because most of my shortcuts are pinned to Windows 8 Start screen(Win 8 deal with it), Minecraft is on their because my cousin plays it often on my computer. The background is the album cover for Feeder's Echo Park, it used to be the skeleton from the Pearl Jam video "Do the Evolution" but I deleted the image and can't find it again.

As much as a man can love a machine, captcha

 

[EscapeGoat_v1legacy]

I have an entire folder my background rotates through at random every minute, with 324 images currently in there.

At the time of typing, this is my desktop:

Spoiler

While I'm not a massive fan of Dirge of Cerberus -Final Fantasy VII-, I do rather like this picture of Vincent.

That said, here are some of my favourite backgrounds that I have:

Spoiler: Set 1

So that's Metal Gear Solid 3, a snowy world and a shot from a webcomic, though I forget which.

Spoiler: Set 2

And these ones are Porco Rosso, the Vostroyan Firstborn from Warhammer 40000 and both Male and Female main characters from Persona 3 Portable.

And, just for a bonus, my absolute favourite backgrounds in my collection:

Spoiler: Okami art!

And my personal favourite:

 

[Private Custard]

I only use photos I've taken myself for my backgrounds. This one was shot at RAF Waddington a couple of weeks back.

Spoiler: 95 Y

 

[Ultress]

I started using this one again once I started getting back into Utena.Really like the art style used

Spoiler: Go Go Power Utena

 

[Berithil]

My desktop rotates between different wallpapers. I recently cut the number down from about 150 to roughly 70.

At the time of opening this thread it was:

My avatar is also a wallpaper

 

[OneCatch]

Spoiler: This is me

Yes, I know, the desktop's a mess.
I also usually have a series of backgrounds, but I like the hue of this one so it's stayed a while.

 

[Esotera]

Spoiler

From one of the first episodes of Jericho, it's been my desktop for ages and it just seems insanely powerful.

 

[teqrevisited]

Spoiler

I tend to use dark backgrounds, though the last one I had was a screen cap of Ameno-sagiri against the yellow sky.

 

[Elvis Starburst]

Spoiler: This~

Have to go with one of my favourites :3

 

[ClassicJokester]

May, um, be slightly anal about keeping shit off my desktop.
