Support Apolyton, buy GURPS/ Alpha Centauri

Give me a link to a program that takes snapshots of desktops and I'll do that. Though, I just rearranged stuff to improve its efficiency for me, so it's really icon-defficient. I like to put things where they won't annoy me.

I'd post one, but my desktop is ever changing, and I doubt you could see the background behind all the icons anyway.

Or I could just use the Print Screen button on my keyboard and paste it into an image program to resize it. ( Derrrr, David, derrrr ) Staring me in the face; I knew there was a reason for that button, just couldn't figure out what.

Seriously, though, I've done that, but the post reply screen is asking me for a http:// address for the screenshot I've made. Eh? Now what?

As I've done in every thread like this so far, I'll ask, how do I get StyleXP to stick around for longer than 30 days? The the UXThemePatcher that they have work for WinXP SP1 yet?

I want my styles back. =(

Whoops, that didn't work. You clicked on the IMG button, didn't you? That just works if you have it uploaded to another site already. What you want is the "Attatch file" field, below the message in the post reply window.

Sorry, can't help you Eroberer. I still use Win98 2nd Ed.

Thinking I'll upgrade to XP sometime early next year, though.

Hope you find an answer LONG before then.

Good luck,

Conforming to the nonconformists doesn't make you any better than the free thinkers who are set free by space images.

by definition, it is impossible to conform to unconformists, considering that unconformists have no concievable form…
What sets my mind free though? Not desktop pictures, that's for sure. I let them set the mood for my computing experience, for sure.
What sets my mind free though is imagination and memory. No substitute for that.

This is not true -- very commonly many "nonconformists" merely conform to nonconformity. See: goths, punks, etc.

It's not a paradox or contradiction, it's just that they think they're being cool or original by going against whatever is popular at any given time and conforming to their own little cliques.

"This is not true -- very commonly many "nonconformists" merely conform to nonconformity. See: goths, punks, etc."

Oh, but it is true. These people, they are not nonconformists. Anyone labeling them as such would be mistaken. That said, I've known people with punk, prep, indie, goth and many other styles that have been true non conformists.
