My Desktop

July 21, 2008 in Other Stuff with Comments Off

Here’s my current desktop:

Go ahead. Psychoanalyze me. I’m guessing my desktop says a lot about who I am (or more importantly who I am not).

If you dare, post your desktop and link back here. If I like you and I find space for you in my life (smile), I may post some desktops of my readers.

This should be interesting.

    Are we supposed to analyze the couches or that it’s a PC? Just kidding… i’m not really a mac snob… or maybe i am.

    Your desktop analysis…

    1680×1050, you have a beefy monitor. Safari and Firefox. These point to a large portion of your time on the net.

    Windows XP, default scheme; Windows Media Player button…It looks like you use your computer, but aren’t a “hyper-customizer”

    B/W background, basic icons…Simplicity and efficiency.

    You clearly hate clutter and unnecessary noise. You like to be a trendsetter, and find new ways to do things.

    Now I could be wrong…but it looks like you enjoy a blend of ultra-modern rooted in traditional.

    I’d love to know what you think.

    Just curious, is that a Paint icon in your quick launch? If it is do you really use Paint that often? And if you do that begs another question, why? Are you a secret Paint Ninja? Do you make awesome Paint pictures? If so can we see them?

    minimalist, no doubt.

    stephen, gets the award for most detailed analysis so far.

    a, it’s the easiest tool i’ve found to to grab screen shots and then cut out what i need for blog posts. can you recommend something better and free?

    For a decent free Windows app to take screenshots, try Gadwin PrintScreen. There’s free and pro versions, so download carefully.

    Definitely had to post a response to this one. I love my desktop setup.

    My analysis of your desktop: you don’t like desktop icons or coffee tables.

    Here’s a link to my post in reply.

    Here is mine. What I lack in desktop icons or files I make up for in dock icons.

    ACS? Thought you would have something more high-tech than that. Not a fan of it! Dang… I have 54 desktop icons here on my personal computer. Would show, but oh would that tell.

    I have been using screenprint32 for years, it is free and allows you to select exactly what you want to capture.

    Indispensable whenever I was creating training manuals at work!

    Kinda surprised to see the default blue taskbar. I thought it would at least be silver. :)

    malachi, we only use ACS for financials. all other ministry tracking (including contributions processing) happens in FellowshipOne. Since F1 is all web-based, the bookmarks are set up in firefox and not on my desktop.

    It’s a photo I took with my Blackberry while on a cruise recently. I had just asked God to speak to me and … wow, did He ever!

    Deep down you have a longing for peace, that which is simple and order.

    Very interesting idea! And, it does reveal a lot about the person, I think. Adding mine to the conversation…

    This is a picture of my desktop. It is the Boston skyline. I am moving there in probably a year and a half to two years to help start a church. I have that picture on there to remind me every time I open my laptop that God is about to turn that hurting city upside down. It pumps me up every time too. Just thought I would share.

    I wonder if you are actually going to look at all of these….if you would like to prove me wrong…please, check my blog out….leave a comment.
