My Desktop ...

I believe in coincidences! Just a few days ago I was telling my wife that I happen to see a new meme called What's on your desktop circulating around and I'll bet I would be tagged for it eventually ... LOL! (being a bit conceited here) and sure enough, as if by some supernatural magic, I was tagged for it by the one and only Genie Princess (who should still be bugging that Genie King for my wishes by the way!). Now is that a coincidence or what ... LOL!

Well, it looks and is really an easy and fun meme to do. At least by the time the meme gets around the blogsphere, we'll all have an idea how everyone's desktop looks like :D And since (as Marzie put it, Spiff is not as lazy as his alter-ego Nick) I actually got down to doing this one pretty fast :D

I like my desktop clean, don't really like to see any folders at all on my desktop. In fact, I have this fetish and fantasy to own a Mac one day. I'm no Mac fan but being in the advertising industry and seeing what a Mac can do, sure does stir up some strange hormonal changes in a man ... LOL! But I'm using a PC system for myself which is more compatible with all those pirated ... urrmm ... I mean cheap games I buy:)

So, since I don't own a mac, I've kinda modified my desktop to function like one. Ive removed the usual window's start bar and installed a task bar which is something you would see on a Macintosh. Changed all my icons to be as close to a Mac as it possible could imitate. (ok, ok, I should go get a mac already, but do you know how much those things cost?). As you can see, my desktop is pretty clean, just the taskbar at the bottom and nothing else. My wallpaper changes with my moods. Currently it's still in Transformers mode but I've got a few more such as Spawn, Hellboy, Spiderman, etc,etc ... yeah, yeah, I'm influenced a lot by comic characters :) And so, there you have it. That's what my desktop looks like ...

Well, Marzie was true to her word, it was a fairly simple meme to do and as always with meme's, I've got to tag a few others to carry on with the meme. Now, that's where I have a problem. I've been threatened with bodily harm by some of my bloggers about tagging them ... LOL ... so, I'm going to be careful with who I tag :D But before that, a word form our sponsors .... hehehe ... not really, here are the rules and stuff.

My Desktop Free View Instruction:

Upon receiving this tag, immediately perform a screen capture of your desktop.It is best that no icons be deleted before the screen capture so as to add to the element of fun. You can do a screen capture by:

1. Going to your desktop and pressing the Print Scrn key (located on the right side of the F12 key).
2. Open a graphics program (like Picture Manager, Paint, or Photoshop) and do a Paste (CTRL + V). If you wish, you can “edit” the image, before saving it.
3. Post the picture in your blog. You can also give a short explanation on the look of your desktop just below it if you want. You can explain why you preferred such look or why is it full of icons. Things like that.
4. Tag five of your friends and ask them to give you a Free View of their desktop as well.
5. Add your name to this list of Free Viewers with a link pointing directly to your Desktop Free View post to promote it to succeeding participants
