*cries a slow death* ... (does that make sense?)... I don't know how to attach or take a screen shot of my desktop! And I just put a really cool one up yesterday from animatrix... *help*

If you are using a PC, it's pretty simple. Above the Insert key (Insert is above Delete, and they are both in a big block of keys above the arrow keys..Uh...Theres a picture at the bottom. Anyway, press it (make sure your desktop is showing), and then open up paint or something. Go to edit>paste and your picture should be there.

If you don't know how to attach that to a message, its easy, post a message and at the bottom hit Manage Attachments.

well, the key is called Print Screen, and is next to a key that is virtually useless unless a program defines it as a usable key; Scroll Lock.

and this entire process of capturing the screen you are on right now is called Screen Dumping.

Got a new one, and cleared out a lot of icons. I didn't use most of em anyway.

Got this from an awesome site, the guy there is awesome at making backgrounds. Highly recommended.

btw, name of the picture is Cobalt Daisy. Love it.

I'm so proud of you! I do so hate cluttered desktops. (Too bad I didn't hate a cluttered desk, room ... car ...)

Anyway, I've been goofing off with installing xp themes. I have an xbox one right now, and it's really neat. Gives a little caffine jolt to the tired-out xp color schemes at least..

Actually, I think there is a WinAmp xbox theme...you might look at the winamp site and see what you can find. (Although it might be a version 3 skin)

Here's mine. Yaaaay. And yeah, I run XP but I like to be able to tweak my colors so I just use the old Windows style.

I hope this works. Last time I tried to attach a file it basically spat at me and said "NYAH! I don't like you."

OK, this is probably going to surprise some of you that I don't have a laser-blasting, sword-swinging, or stomping mecha on my laptop's desktop. Instead...I have this. ;) This is the desktop you and I were talking about, SnowyAngel...:)
