"My Desktop" Contest! - El Matt - 01-24-2006

Okay, it's been pretty stale around the Graphics and Arts section lately, so I've decided to add something new to it.

Introducing the "My Desktop" contest, where you enter your desktop against others to see who has the coolest one. After the entries are in, there will be a thread for voting. Whoever gets the most votes wins.

First place will become a competition winner (the new usergroup for winners of competitions and SOTW (coming soon I swear)).
Second place will get +rep.
Third gets honorary mention.

RULES:
1) Nothing too sketchy.
2) For the love of God and the forum, link to your screenshot from an imagehosting site. If you post an image that's huge, it's deleted.
3) The deadline is this Friday, if there are no forum problems. Entries must be in by then.
4) No changing entries.
5) Make sure Blizzsector is in the taskbar so I know you're not cheating.

Have fun with it.

Edit (Spitfire):
Contest Winner Usergroup has now been made. It allows access to the private Vet/Legend/Staff forum, you get increased PM box etc.

Guys, for clarification, I want you to take a screenshot of your desktop (icons and everything.)

Example:

ok.. im sorry.. but how do we take a pic of our desktop and where do we find the pic?

Show your desktop, press Print Screen, paste it into a paint program, save and host it somewhere.

I made it hella long ago, and I deleted the .psd. I never figured I'd need it. And I just added the text for this contest. It's really just liquify with a bunch of filters and gradients.

I can make another one if you NEED the .psd

EDIT: This one has the taskbar:
