Hope this doesn't turn out to be yet another MS bashing thread. While i'm no big fan of MS, 3D desktop extrusion doesn't exactly make a killer OS. Whatever happened to function over form? I love my plain ol' bland desktop anyday. No fancy pictures and all that stuffs - never had time for such. Ralvy: Quite unlike you !!! I believe the thread author didn't mean my MS vs. your Linux desktops. |

Y'all should take a look at this http://www.dotsis.com/mobile_phone/showthread.php?t=65051 and https://www.nairaland.com/nigeria/topic-102529.0.html first link shows a desktop competition on a foreign forum which i am a member of and i do take part in those competitions. second link shows when i tried to create something like it on nairaland, but it didn't work. i guess some things just can't work the right way in nigeria. |

i formatted and reinstalled xp sp3 over the weekend. thanks to window blinds, you can't tell d diff! i also found a cool app- rainmeter- which is responsible for the clock and winamp shortcut. recent x is for quicjk access to recent documents 8 start for quick access to my apps etal. object dock for easy access to system folders you can see that i have a thing for black glass. . .

oyb, u have a nice looking desktop. i once used those tools, but now i prefer things simpler, i really need my pc resources now, those tools suck them. nice desktop. Cheers here's mine P.S: i'm same person as sawyerrken, tht ID was banned for eternity (i guess) |
Re: The Best Desktop Or Laptop Screenshots! by Nobody: 6:47pm On Jan 23, 2008 |
thanks. i got 2gb ram , 4mb l2 cache, 2ghz core 2 duo and a 256mb high end workstation class graphics card, so the apps dont slow me down.except quizo tabbar- which uses the .net framwork. i may end up switching over to directory opus. quizo was glacial under vista, but its not too slow under xp. takia |

paribus: It's amazing that people on the forum know me to an extent that they know what I can & cannot do or say. Well , sorry paribus - I was just joking @Poster: Accept my apologies please, I didn't know Linux Screenshots are not allowed . . .Thats Fine, Let me post some Microjunk Screenshots. . .

Ralvy: Hey Ralvy. I'm not taking it personal and definitely don't know you that much. Internet anonymity dictates that people's character are profiled by the posts or comments they make. From a personal perception there are serious and reasonable posters, not so serious ones and downright jokers on this forum. I was only going by your previous posts and comments in the computer section which personally I adjugded as purposeful, solution-centric and devoid of sheer braggado. My highlighting of that particular post was to emphasize what seems to be a u-turn from your norm. By no means do i intend to restrict you within the boundaries of 'reasonable' posts, that is strictly your prerogative. Feel free to take the liberty. I don't wish to be misunderstood, the screenshots posted here are visually nice and I'm sure they serve their purpose for their respective creators. I am only trying to underline the essence of the thread as being to compare desktops screenshots regardless of the platforms under which they were created. I'm sure Linux users can definitely post their 'superior' desktops as much as they please without shovelling the 'linux is good, MS is evil' gospel down our throats. The anonymous stuff - was that a subtle attempt at traffic generation for NCF. How can you be anonymous on a forum you moderate and possible own |
Re: The Best Desktop Or Laptop Screenshots! by bigrovar(m): 8:48pm On Jan 27, 2008 |
OK i decided to put in multiple entries , i dont think this thread should degenerate into a fan war btw windows and linux, so in the spirit of tolerance , must of my screen are a fusion of Ubuntu and Windows XP Since i Run both OSes on my ubuntu Lappy, XP thru Virtualization, so i get the best of both world , ok enough talk , |
Re: The Best Desktop Or Laptop Screenshots! by anusule(m): 10:28pm On Jan 27, 2008 |
bigrovar has beta desktop screenshots |
Re: The Best Desktop Or Laptop Screenshots! by Kemjisuper(m): 11:23am On Jan 28, 2008 |
Very nice submits by Bigrovar. Pls let me remind that this forum is not for comparing specs and OS preferences, it's only to showcase desktop designs, arrangements and organization. Here's another one from my office desktop. Keep them coming!

paribus: Aight Sir . . . well understood . . . paribus: I wasn't trying to brag in anyway . . . The Screenshots shown on this page are nothing to compared to what I've seen. I still expect urs paribus: What exactly d'u know about me? [A break from the norm] You clearly stated that "Internet anonymity dictates that people's character are profiled by the posts or comments they make" I am hardly ever on the forum as I manage one which already takes most of my time, so I'm still curious to find out what you know about me or have u been stalking me? paribus: Dear Mr. Paribus . . . NO ONE on the Nairaland Forum has the right to . . . paribus: I Sure will . . paribus: Ryt . . . So why in God's name did you post this ? paribus: your Mixing things up man paribus: No body has done or is doing so . . . I use Windows XP, Vista too . . and The OSs are Okay! MS is Good. The Following Screenshots are from Windows XP! |
Re: The Best Desktop Or Laptop Screenshots! by paribus(m): 12:08pm On Jan 28, 2008 |
@Ralvy Let's not get too personal mate. Nobody's stalking you. We don't know each other from Adam beyond what we post here. Everyone post whatever they wish. Enough said. Regards |

Hey some nice screenshot am seeing here, although most have crowded desktops, i hate that shit, anyway here are some of my other collections [img]http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2250/2225994898_235ecc0c4b_d.jpg [/img] |
Re: The Best Desktop Or Laptop Screenshots! by Kemjisuper(m): 2:11pm On Jan 28, 2008 |
Nice desktops. I'll experiment the clean desktop concept too, though I like my programs and folders to be very easily accessed (I tend to forget some of the software I've installed). Good job! Any others? |
Re: The Best Desktop Or Laptop Screenshots! by Nobody: 3:11pm On Jan 28, 2008 |
no obvious changes, i'm using a new styler skin tht blends with the window blinds folder background. @ kemjisuper, there are two apps you can use as shortcuts to your programs/folders. object dock and 8 start launcher. i use objectdock mainly to access folders /objects (control panel lock workstation, drice c, flash, MMcard, nokia.its object dock on top of my screen. 8 start is in the corner. i use 8 start to access my applications, ebooks and templates. 8 start may take a little time getting used to, but its way cool. after this, you can disable icons on the desktop. fastest way to do this is with regtoy, a cool registry tweaker. thats my logon screen below. @ bigbrovar, the cube desktop thingy, does it chop ram? cause it looks way cool. i have the app somewhere for windows( am considering installing it)

Re: The Best Desktop Or Laptop Screenshots! by bigrovar(m): 3:15pm On Jan 28, 2008 |
am using just 350mb or ram out of the total 2gb i have on my system, but i don't know what the memory requirement on windows would be like,since windows run something that is quite different and might not be well intergrated into the windows shell because its a 3rd party app which is not supported by MS, However i have seen Cube on windows and it quite good, just not as seamless and smooth as it is on linux, but with time it improve, the guys working on the project are doing an awesome job, compiz on linux --- is very minimal on resources |
Re: The Best Desktop Or Laptop Screenshots! by Kemjisuper(m): 8:59am On Jan 29, 2008 |
oyb: Thanks for the tip. I actually thought of using my object dock to clean up my desktop icons. Anyways, till then, here are some more of my screenshots

i inverted ralvy's leaf
|
Re: The Best Desktop Or Laptop Screenshots! by Kemjisuper(m): 11:49am On Jan 29, 2008 |
You inverted Ralvy's desktop leaf? That's wow! Hey, that docklet to the left of your desktop, is that the 8start? How can I get it? It looks very useful for organising icons on the desktop. |
Re: The Best Desktop Or Laptop Screenshots! by Nobody: 2:00pm On Jan 29, 2008 |
http://www.8start.com/ http://www.freewarefiles.com/downloads_counter.php?programid=17119 http://planetmirror.com/pub/freewarefiles/8startLauncher1.5setup.exe as to the leaf, like ralvy, i was using vista b4 i got frustrated, formetted and reinstalled.before doing that, i lifted all the media i could from vista. if you open any image in paint, and go to the attributes menu, you can invert their colours. |
Re: The Best Desktop Or Laptop Screenshots! by DualCore1: 2:24pm On Jan 29, 2008 |
Kemjisuper: The only lady? which? i see two ladies there. |
Re: The Best Desktop Or Laptop Screenshots! by Kemjisuper(m): 5:11pm On Jan 29, 2008 |
@Dual Core Oops! Didn't notice that. But can't you see she's not a lady? No lady would be posing nude for camera shots! (Jessica Alba) @Oyb Thanks for the 8Start link. I'll start the download when I have a good connection for it. Thanks |
