Support Apolyton, buy Galactic Civilizations: Deluxe Edition

The reason ours look so good is that we're using macs.

Help yourself to an AD-FREE life

Depends what program you use to shrink the images. My desktop is 1024x768, but I use IrfanView to shrink it to 800x600, and it comes out clearly.

Support Apolyton buy from Amazon

My desktop used to be cluttered since I use it as the default downloading directory, and keep files I want to have in immediate reach on it.

But I'm now making efforts to keep it at a constant size.



Azazel - you have 3 links to the same programs: on your desktop, on your quick launch, and in your start menu.

Why do you keep all 3 copies of the links?

The only thing I have copied twice is Internet explorer which remains both on my desktop (default) and in the launch bar. I would remove the useless desktop link, but i've grown used to it

Browse Apolyton AD-FREE

This is all fine and dandy, but how about a thread posting pics of ACTUAL desktops...


Let's see all the pooter stands/desks/tables out there and let's see the place where all of you sit down to come to Apolyton.

Now, that would be interesting.

now I see your problem with the OS... and bull, the main task bar is just "automatically in background"... the bar you see on the side is just that, a sidebar. do you guys know nothing about windows? ask Glonk

They're in Application Support/Synergy.

While it does use pics from your itunes folder, unfortunately it doesn't work the other way around. I suppose you could drag and drop them.
