uh oh... uh oh... it's the attack of the blue nondescript background! Aaaaaah! Am I the only one here who runs XP with all the visual fluff OFF and no background because it's faster that way? And no, this isn't on some POS 3 year old computer either- it's on the comps in my sig. XP runs noticeably faster with all the fluff off, even on a 2GHz+ AMD/P4 system.
Downsized from 1600x1200 (stoopid r128 won't do higher above 60Hz, and it's bugging me. Everything's too damn BIG @ 1600x1200... I want 2048x1536 back! :bawling: :D ) Essential system info (CPU, chipset temps) in systray via mbm5... this is my standard setup for all my computers.

When I feel with messing with it again, I'll open Powerstrip and put my 1400x1120@100hz resolution back in. My monitor shouldn't support that kind of refresh rate at that resolution, but it works :D (Dell 19" Trinitron).

No no! The tear is from the fact that your son is lamenting the inevitable death of the beautiful flower, and his enlightenment. The joy that knowing that all life is everchanging has caused a trickle of emotion to fall from his precious young eyes!

They're part of his "Quick Launch." Just drag the shortcut to the Quick Launch area of your task bar and drop it. If you're dragging the actual executable file then hold down the right mouse button and when you release select "Create Shortcut here."

This is a somewhat-recent shot of my desktop. I didn't feel like resizing it. I tend to prefer having all the stuff I'm not needing to use ALL THE TIME be on my Start menu. That's what it's for. The wallpaper can be had at http://www.animejello.net , and it's only in 1024x768 so don't get any ideas...

I know it has something to do with the printscreen key, but I have tried holding ctrl and alt to no results.
Hit the PriSc (print screen) key. Then open Clipboard (it's one of those little Windows "applets", it might be called Clipboard Viewer on your machine, depending on your flavor of Windows). This will let you see it to make sure it worked. Then you can use a program like IrfanView (http://www.irfanview.com/) to view it. Just save it as a .jpg.
Even easier is a program like GrabClipSave (http://www.boumchalak.net/Tools/GCS/Download/download.html) - it does it all in one shot.
