The observant of you will see that's the Microsoft Zune theme (I don't like using non-signed stuff because when you do eventually sign it, it comes bundled with loads of other crap - if there's a black and orange or black and gold one out there that isn't bundled with anything else, i want it) and NoS's ISDF helmet render... I've also got a cool orange version of the Vista Ultimate aurora I was using before, and sometimes I use some pretty screenies too.

You programmed destroyed units to leave behind husks, didn't you?

Thats actually not hard, only thing is after they're all there, and you've gone through 100000 units, your computer might start coughing up blood.

Lots of red there, looks like the effect we used to get when we were constantly being shot by everything in a base :lol:

I'm glad we can get rid of that now.

And yes, GBD, we are obsessed :P

Nope, they were actually left behind by destroyed tanks. They also expire after a while by slowly taking more and more damage. It makes you work for scrap, and different things are created each time. you never know what might get left behind =)...

Its not the verts you gotta worry about, its that muncher of an effect...

I normally go with this, the concept rendering of Talon, a planet from the planned SRV campaign:

(http://img201.imageshack.us/img201/7854/desktop1q.th.png) (http://img201.imageshack.us/my.php?image=desktop1q.png)

But late last night, in a fit of insomnia at about 2-3 AM, I changed it to this:

(http://img13.imageshack.us/img13/7923/desktop2dro.th.png) (http://img13.imageshack.us/my.php?image=desktop2dro.png)

I think it was inspirational at the time, but not quite too sure. Still trying to decide if its a "bad" thing or not to keep it. :P

Wow, just seeing that picture made my blood pressure go down...

It was either the lack of a chaotic mess of icons or the sunset... still trying to decide.

I think it's a combination of both.

I have four "desktops" -- each with some different windows open. The cube is an awesome way to navigate between them. Each of the four takes a face of the cube. The faces on the top and bottom are just some random pictures, the guitar and the beautiful Photoshop of Obama.

Someone said someone had a lot of games. These are JUST MY STEAM GAMES:

Do I win?

My printscreen was only giving 2 color images so I had to take 4 from remote and stitch them together. Remote turns off my background. In case you were wondering.
