I always have fun with this one. Post a screen shot of your computer wallpapers!
You can tell so much about a person's personality from that, methinks. Anyway, here's mine...

That's how it works on my Dell anyway.  :bounce[/spoiler]

I've had, in the past, the title screen to Phantasy Star IV, a series of drawings that I liked (some of which were done for me), a promotional art picture for Sword of Mana, a wallpaper from the game Mabinogi, and a few others. Right now, it's a default, as I just had to reinstall my computer from scratch. When I figure out what my newest wallpaper will be, I'll post it.

I use the first one on my laptop, only flipped horizontally because OSX likes to build right-to-left. On my windows box, I use the second wallpaper.

Ubuntu. Nice.  Mine is just the default Timezones IBM background for my laptop since i use it for work.  My home PC just got formatted and updated to vista 64bit, to take advantage of my increased ram, so i haven't had a chance to find a good wallpaper for it yet.

I'd say "don't blame me.  I put it in a spoiler", but you'd probably respond with saying that makes you more likely to look at it. :p

I have a cousin who watched It when he was eight or nine and he's the same way.  He hates clowns; particularly that one.  I watched It when I was thirteen or so and that was bad enough.  Although, it's funny: if you watch It now, it really seems stupid and hokey.

The Kefka one is just concept artwork that's been in every strategy guide that was printed for the game and can be found by googling Kefka on google image.

Not as epic as this image though.

Everyone in my family has always been huge horror/monster movie fans.  I also happened to be a fan of cult and exploitation films, and knew people like me. And one of them had a father who didn't give a damn what his son watched so we got to see a lot of weird shit at art theaters and bootleg VHS.  It's prolly what accounts for my warped sense of humor...

Was Kefka the first incredibly annoying boss that you had to fight a dozen times through the course of a FF game? 
: Re: Computer Wallpapers!
: Archmage Joda December 13, 2008, 04:23:58 AM
Not really, because you [spoiler]only really fight him twice throughout the course of the game, and one of those is the final boss[/spoiler], and the rest of the time, he serves to be awesome, and the comic relief, and awesome some more. So no, he isn't

I've been rotating through the women of Serenity, currently on River Kaylee. Though i need to load up the movie in my laptop so i can screenshot my favorite shot of Inara.  I don't know why i love that shot so much maybe it is because for the first time we see her a vulnerable or raw rather than refined/fake.

I'm pretty sure it was Beethoven who was really German, not Mozart (Who was a genuine Austrian, IIRC).

There are no big breasts in that picture.  There's a pretty fine looking ass there though.

I don't use wallpapers that would give me wood though.  One day, I may have a way to release that sort of energy, but for right now I'm trying to keep that down to a minimum.

A few wallpapers I made based on my roleplaying characters.
I'm a very bad draftsman, so I use the photoshop. And before anyone ask... yes, I use pictures of famous people, but simply because there's a ton of pictures to choose, and if I later decide to make another wallpaper for the same character, I can pick another image in a different pose.

You don't know that.  From just the picture alone (without the word superimposed), the live bird could have killed the dead one.  Maybe he's letting out his war cry.

It reminds me of a joke two of my coworkers did.  One made a web site that would scroll through the list of all files in the system32 directory and list them with the word "deleting" in front of it.  The other made a site that was just a BSOD, set to render at full screen with no border.  He linked his site to the first one, having it open after five seconds or so.  Basically, you'd look at this list of system32 files being "deleted" and then you'd get what looks like a BSOD.  You pretty much have to ALT + TAB out of it or ALT + F4 to close it.  It was funny to see the looks on some people's faces.

one of my favorite gags is to take a screenshot of the desktop and set that as the wall paper. Then proceed to remove all the icons from said desktop and hide the task bar by dropping it to just a little like on the side or top of the screen so they don't accidentally mouse over it and notice.
: Re: Computer Wallpapers!

I've done similar things.  They guys I work with will do wierd things to your PC if you leave it unlocked.  So I'd set a screenshot of my desktop as my desktop image, so when I lock the computer, it looks like I left it unlocked.  I then drag the logon window to the very bottom of the screen so only a couple pixels of it are showing.  The only shame is they won't mess with my PC unless I'm not there, so I'm not there to see the looks on their faces.

He's really limited when he can't kill people.
: Re: Computer Wallpapers!
: Tshern August 14, 2009, 09:38:01 AM
That is a huge problem. He's done plenty of crazy, devious and malignant things that make the Joker, but there's no fear of death or anything.
: Re: Computer Wallpapers!
: RobbyPants August 14, 2009, 10:36:52 AM
Kind of.  He always tries to kill Batman, but he can't succeed because it's a kid's cartoon show...  well, that, and he's the goddamned Batman.  Although it still applied to everyone else.  He can't kill any bystanders, hostages, cops, or anything.  So he's basically left to wacky capers and goofy shenaniganz.

Have you ever watched Batman Beyond, Return of the Joker?  I like it as an animated movie, and they don't pull so many punches with the Joker in that one.  Also, I've seen two different versions.  My DVD version has slightly different footage.

: Ruam August 14, 2009, 11:51:56 AM
I am quite fond of the TAS-movie "Mask of the Phantasm". You actually get to see the corpse of a guy the Joker killed (it is blown up shortly thereafter). You also get to see some new parts of both the Joker's and Bruce's past.

The one aired on TV was the edited version. The DVD release is fully uncut, and shows the Joker and Terry at their best. It's kinda awesome when Terry gives the Joker a run for his money by making wise-cracks.

Risada.. that's my favorite console game! Nothing has ever come close to matching it's glorious storyline or sweet game play. The Tactics Advanced additions were terrible. I remember twenty minutes into playing the newest one that I got a sudden urge to get into game development just to secure that a decent sequel to FFT would find its way into existence. What a game.

They were REAL cute when they annihilated your party in a couple rounds.

Seriously, I stopped playing because I had to literally save after every step I took because if there was a random chocobo encounter, I would literally wipe in a couple rounds.

Every one of those damn things killed my guys in one hit, except the black ones.

To make things worse, most of them healed too, so unless I killed them in one hit, I couldn't kill them at all.

And brag about how they weren't a challenge all you want, it won't make your weenie any bigger.

Very true. You have to gang up on them or they take forever to drop. Although it's a good way to gain XP/JP by letting them heal up.

Well, the Swiss are... sort of a special case. They use three different languages in their own country, and their German is nigh unintelligible to an Austrian or German if they've got a strong accent.

But yes, language-wise I'm German.
And hey, at least the chance is higher than if it were Spanish, or even French.

New wall.

It's a cropped version of this (http://kuro.hanyuu.net/image/02bf3a5cf63e8551b32cc4acfd9f4818/Konachan.com%20-%2047634%20clouds%20landscape%20leaves%20sky%20studio_s.d.t.%20touhou%20water%20yasaka_kanako%20yuuki_tatsuya.png). (SFW, but possible NSFW ads. No guarantees for the rest of the site.)

I also considered shrinking it instead of cropping, though.

In honor of this bad news (http://brilliantgameologists.com/boards/index.php?topic=1433.msg267280#msg267280), I've set this picture of the Death Dealer as my desk top at home, for the time being:

Prak, IMG tags don't work like URL tags.  You need to have a start and closing tag and you put the URL in between them, like so:

So, I've decided to change my wallpaper from the Armored Core 5 preview mech to something a little more... clear (the mech's image is stretched, so it makes it very blurry). Here's the list of contenders:

mrs and i are taking a photography class.

this was one of my shots, its been my wallpaper ever since i took it.

i think the orange glow on the house is infrared. the house is facing several hundred feet of open water, with no appreciable lights.

Is that during a storm, or something?  It looks dark, but not night-time dark.

My home desktop is two drawings of a PC I'm running right now: a dread necromancer.  Yes, that second one was heavily inspired by art from CityScape.

A badass line-up of all Final and Ex-stage bosses from Touhou. Resized and edited slightly (added black borders to make it fit the dimensions of my monitor) from this (http://konachan.com/post/show/80546/flandre_scarlet-fujiwara_no_mokou-hijiri_byakuren-) image.

I'll never get tired of reanimating this thread.
I have a new computer. To celebrate the occasion, I also got a new wallpaper.
