how do you post a screnshot of your desktop. i'm on a mac BTW. give me the steps and i will be happy to do so.

Death On Ice

Apple (Command) + Shift + 4. Then when the little Crosshairs appear, select the area you want to take the screenshot over.



Or, you can use Skitch. Invite only, but I'll give you an invite if you want. It's pretty cool.

Note - Only have two invites

AKAnotu

oooh, skitch.
what's skitch?
o nevermind
checked it out

Yeah you can host it on imageshack if you want to.

Equi command-shift-3 captures your entire screen.  Google is your friend.

Here's mine, by the way:


Quicksilver is pulled up there.  I don't believe in shortcuts, menus or the dock, I just use QS.  The bar you see across the bottom is to tell me what desktop I am on (using Virtue).

I'm busy. I'll ignore you later.

AKAnotu, I'm guessing you needed to use second "T" in "TYRANT" to cover up your "midget pr0n" folder?

:granger:

Here is mine... The Background is a photoshop work in process, so its a little plain and unfinished. I notice alot of the XP users use the Silver Theme on their toolbars and such.

I would also put up a screenie of my desktop on Ubuntu, but i'm too lazy to boot it up.
