Now I just have to remember how to do it.

Take "print screen" of the desk top,
put it in "my docs", if happy with size,
otherwise, manipulate in photoshop to about 450 pixels across?
No Village Hosting needed.

Thanks,

Look at FAQ later., so I will.

Try this, hot day in August. small town or village, really.
Typical west of Ireland streetscape
The flags are the County flags, to encourage the local gaelic team.
This photo was taken the day the local team won thru' to a semi-final in, I think, Mayo somewhere.
The chip shop, centre of piccie, is our fave chippie. We were coming back from a swim at the caves of Maghera, the pools underneath are brill.

Helper?
Well I take it yr sorry for the "do you ever read a book" remark?
Ok, thank you.

Topline of keyboard, there's a button third from right,
says
Prt Sc.

Tidy up desk top,
press button, it copies the screentosome kind of clipboard.
Then I paste that into a blank page on Photo-shop.
to trim it down to 500 pixels.
Then upload it somewhere.

Yes, Roseval, I'm sorry for the insult. (I've been doing better, really!)

(Now, I finally understand what you meant about 'you were nice to me!' over on Lifeboat. For the life of me, I couldn't remember ever NOT being nice to you ... but as soon as I read that 'do you ever read books?' remark ... I KNEW that was me, to my shame! I'm really sorry.

So, thank you for your help above ... but, I have SUSE-LINUX the Euro version ... and it doesn't behave the same as microsoft (I got tired of supporting billionaires!).

So ... linux is new to me ... and I can't remember MS anymore at all ... so, I guess I'll just have to hang my head in shame and ignore this thread. :dunno

Where is that place? Daavros?

(Oh and CW, there were a coupla other times as well,

If I used emoticons, I would include a wee smile, maybe.

[Dave]

That's a picture of the weir and Pultney Bridge in Bath ( My home town ), I took it yesterday morning.

[roseval]

Is that granite or sandstone?

[Dave]

Bath Stone as they call it in the area which is indeed sandstone/limestone

[roseval]

Here, Cw, did you ever get sorted?

[Dave]

Any more?

[Ms Digabit]

http://hometown.aol.co.uk/wchiana/myhomepage/photo.html
this is my little bro.......(boy will he kill me) and my lovely niece.

[Ms Digabit]

oh poo...... that didnt work......ill have to rethink this one........

[Dave]

Looks like the site doesn't allow hotlinking, let me see what I can do ;)

[Dave]

http://www.politicsandcurrentaffairs.com/Graphics/diggabits.jpg

There, I've uploaded it to P & CA's website. Of course Digga has access to remove it if he so wishes :lol

If you mail me the pic, I'll add it to the members gallery: http://politicsandcurrentaffairs.com/Gallery.htm

[Ms Digabit]

Bless you daav.....thankyou...... if he removes it i have more where that came from.......(oh yessy!) and now somewhere to post to !! :lol

[goddesscon]

What a HORRIBLE pic of Sir Digs....
However, My daughter looks gorgeous...
Ok Ms Digabit...how's about one of yourself and my niece???
No fair just posting one of Digga...

*trying to remember if she has any blackmail photos of me from when she was here :crazy *


Honestly Sis....that is NOT a flattering piccie of your bro...
You have a different one??? We can just cut his head off in this one ;)

[Ms Digabit]

Thats easy...just edit some blonde hair onto diggas head....it'll look pretty similar :rollin :rollin :rollin

[roseval]

Some posters may have seen this piccie on Lifeboat,
but it's so good I am using it on my desktop, at a much higher resolution, where it has the effect of an insect jungle.
Actually, it reminds me of the hill attack scenes in Thin Red Line, the waving grass.

I took it on our veg allotment, where there is a large area of un-glyphosated nettles, a necessary larval food plant for a lot of N European butterflies.
New digital camera , Kodak, 10x optical zoom.
I stalked this pair and got stung round the ankles by the nettles.

http://img.villagephotos.com/p/2002-7/33361/WMJEC-deskwide.jpg

[sir digalot]

it will be called...

"butterflies humping"

[roseval]

Actually,
I think they are doing something like rubbing their pheramones all over each other.
Pre humping stage.
I can't quite get the full picture in my insect book.

[sir digalot]

ah... fore play....

[KSoDBartman]

Until I saw this thread I'd had a neat pic taken by Cassini of a crescent Jupiter and a solitary moon; I'd had that up for months.

Now I changed it to this:

http://www.tc.umn.edu/~kappasig/bart-top.jpg

[roseval]

Interesting, what is it?

And can I have a copy of that KaZaA, I deleted mine somehow?

Now I shall have to change my d/top.

[KSoDBartman]

It's a beautiful landscape... that's completely fake.

It's all CG.

http://www.visualparadox.com

And I'd send you KazaaLite, but I don't have the installer anymore; I deleted it after I installed it.

[roseval]

I thought it must be fake,
something to do with too even coloring up and down mountains,
that's why I said "what".

Thanks for Kaz offer, by the way.

[KSoDBartman]

Yeah, there is a fakey quality to parts of it. But it is a screencap so the original image (http://www.visualparadox.com/wallpapers/mountainrange800.htm) is a bit better than that.

And even if that's not your fancy, there's many (http://www.visualparadox.com/wallpapers/craterlake800.htm) others (http://www.visualparadox.com/wallpapers/southpassage800.htm) to choose (http://www.visualparadox.com/wallpapers/nightbridge800.htm) from (http://www.visualparadox.com/wallpapers/zen800.htm).

Fred, your Desktop reminds me of my days in the violent North Sea and Gorch Fock especially! BTW, how do I post my Desktop? I don't find the print-screen command!

[sir digalot]

as usual i am boring and just stick with whats given....

http://www.dreamrealms.com/pictures/jpegs/general/desktop.jpg

tho i do hate alot of icons on my desktop.... the only time i have them is if i am working on something then i know what i am working on... when i am done t hey get archived and backed up then deleted..

i guess it comes from having very small amounts of hard drive space to keep stuff :lol

[Fredfredson]

Esteem

You got to sail on Gorch Fock!

Way cool, I'm envious. :cheers
