i found this fun at another forum.
show us your desktop by taking a screenshot. Screenshot (hit the print screen button on your pc. That will take a sceenshot. Now go to paint and go to EDIT>PASTE)
Hotlinking enabled web hosts.
www.clawz.com (sign up and hosting is free)
or
email me and I will put it on my account and send you the link. I can either host it on clawz (more uptime, but slow at times) or acnova (faster, but more downtime)
my family computer

Do you know how much in the way of system reasources you're wasting with all those icons. Organize them, man! Your computer will run faster!

Send it to
[email protected] and ill post it for you. Clawz really does sukk though, and I have a private server on the other side. I promise to post avatars and pics that you want if you just send em to me.
Screenshot shoud work.
Hit the Print Screen Button and hen go to paint and hit edit>paste
It will NOT automaticly save a file, its just a copy for you to paste.
Example

Uh, no. The images seen here have nothing to do with emmzee's bandwidth, they are being hosted elsewhere.
Sowwy...

Yeah, kazer man, how many icons do you need?
Sorry for making the layout go pear-shaped. But this is only my DOS resolution for Arachne (it's brilliant, I may never boot Windows again)!

That
is my "desktop" so far as I've got one. It's my web browser showing the top of this thread and it's running on DOS 6.22 so there's not a lot behind it. But since you insist-

i had a lot of icons on my desktop too, but i fixed it by making a Visual Basic form (which i called "Doors" look out bill gates

) which is liek a pop up window on the side of my screen that has a lot of the commonly used icons in it. All ya do is click on the button and the program opens! Its great!!

That sounds cunning, Wardrich. I don't like desktop icons myself and have always ended up putting everything on the Start menu.

'drich, could you send that to me?

That IS pretty cool. 'd be a neat program to try. Send it to me, but only if it's rather small. My little hotmail account can only take so much.
