Click for fullsize.

Yes... I am a huge geek when it comes to loving obscure Japanese video games.

^^MAN!!! That's a reeeaaallly nice desktop!!!! It's shows your creative side I must say

Q: How can I post my desktop, without using the method with "printscreen" - button on my keyboard? I dunno but my "pscrn" button don't respond at all while pushing it or anything ... anyone please?? I don't have cool desktop at all, it just eats me that I can't do something that seems real easy .....

hmmm... ok just a thought, don't get insulted if this is too obvious. you have to press "shift+print screen" and then open something like windows paint and just paste with ctrl+v. then you can save the image.

Bloody hell zenon. So geeky and not at the same time. Really nice and original. Showing mine is a waste, DB9 in the background, and thats it.

You didn't insult me. But trust me, I've tried .....

^ So if you just hit the Print Screen key (you actually don't need to hold down Shift, Alt, Ctrl or anything), and then go directly into something like MSPaint or Photoshop, and go to Edit, there is no option to paste?

If that doesn't work, what operating system are you using? If it is Windows XP, try going to Control Panel > Accessibility Options > select the Keyboard tab > turn off 'Use FilterKeys'. After that, it should work. If not...

haz · September 29th, 2004, 05:16 PM

niiiiiiiiice that second option worked

Thanks. I use Frontpage to upload pics to my webspace (I have a shitty page with some pics of my car)

Yeah, I know. I have a bunch of stuff on there that I haven't had time to organize yet....too busy. But normally I have about 10 icons on it - I'm not one of these completely desolate desktop types (not to criticize you if you are

)

Yes, WIN 98SE. I have XP Pro on disk, but I don't want to take the time to burn all of my stuff onto CD, then reformat my HD and install it. I don't think I can just go ahead an put XP on it without losing my data (I've only got 28G, but it's full, and that would mean a lot of burning)

zenon · September 30th, 2004, 04:57 AM

Stick with Windows 98SE. It's the most stable product Microsoft has ever put out. As a bonus, it also doesn't rape your system resources like Windows XP. Games run faster, programs needing large ammounts of memory are dealt with better.... actually, after typing all of this, I'm wondering why I'm even using Windows XP myself.

And don't "lol" at Windows 98SE MercedesAMG, you're just showing that you're a n00b.

And if you ever decide to go to Windows XP, don't try an "upgrade" without completely formatting. Whipe the drive and do a fresh install - doing anything else causes nothing but major nightmares.

I'd say it'd be a hella lot cheaper and easier to buy a second hard drive to copy it all to.

It's pretty straight forward. You need to have both a smaller version (say 800x600) and a larger version (1024x768+) of your desktop.

Write the code like this:
Insert link to full image here[/b]][img]Insert link to small image here[/img]
Put text "Click for fullsize" here.

It's basically just a image tag with a link tag wrapped around it.
