let\'s see those desktops!

for those who don\'t know how to do it, it\'s simple.. just press the PrtScr button on your keyboard, open up any graphics program (even Paint works), and press Ctrl+V (or Edit > Paste). save the file (as a .jpg) and attach it here. for those of you who have larger desktops, you may want to scale the image down a little before posting, if you know how..

anyways, here\'s mine at work:

Here it is.  And, yes Duane, I\'ll empty my recycle bin ASAP.  I know my uncleanliness bothers you.

For some reason, I can\'t get MS Paint to save as a .jpg   And the bmp is too large to upload to the forum... SO, here is my wallpaper pic less the icons & toolbar...

this is one of my photos.... I won $2k in a photo contest with this one!

Unfortunately, if you lick these, you die... well if you were to do it in the wild at least.  These are dart frogs... in nature, they eat this one type of ant that their body takes chemical compounds from to secrete a toxin from their skin.  Natives rub their blowgun darts on the skin & use them to hunt.  Since they don\'t eat the ants in captivity, they are harmless....

It\'s geeky for now, but I just got the laptop courtesy of work and that\'s how it came.
