The Windows 95/98 Personal Desktop Gallery
Last Update: April 21, 2000
LE FastCounter
This is a new site for the display and viewing of everyone's
desktop images. Have you ever been curious of what other people's Windows looks
like? With the development of themes, and the large number of themes
programs available, it's possible to make Windows Desktop appear
as whatever your heart's desire! This is the first web page that's
interested in displaying your Desktop appearance to the public.
After having spent time altering your work environment, now show the
world what your computer looks like!
To submit your page, there are two methods you can use: 1) Close/minimize your
open windows until you only see your background and icons on your desktop.
Push the Print Screen button to capture an image your desktop and then open
any graphics program and paste the image into a new file, or
2) Use LView Pro
(click on Edit, Capture, Desktop in the pull-down menu) or any other graphics program to
get a screen capture of your desktop (without the start menu bar on the bottom, please).
Write a short description of your desktop and mail it to me at dcau@hotmail.com.
Don't worry about sizing the image -- I'll adjust it once I receive it so
sending me a 800x600 image will be just fine. Have fun and happy browsing!
Please help me get this page started by contributing
your page right now. Thanks!

Background picture of Iria from the anime IRIA: Zeiram The Animation with
personalized C and D icons of Madoka and Hikaru from the great anime series
Kimagure Orange Road, and additional icons of Dilbert and Dogbert.
My girlfriend's desktop is below (yes, our last names are the same, but there's no relation! :)

My favorite cartoon is Garfield so naturally that would make him the focus of my
desktop. The Garfield background was downloaded from
Garfield's Official Web Site. Also if you look closely on the left hand side,
my C drive is named Kyosuke! ^_^

After her midterms, Oriana will then describe her desktop for us.
We'll just have to wait patiently until then...*sigh*

The wallpaper is a picture of Saki Nijino, from the game Tokimeki
Memorial. The icons are Rei Ayanami from the anime Neon Genesis
Evangelion. I made the icons myself using images found on the internet.

This is my desktop featuring the works of kim anderson.
Some of you might have seen some of the pictures before.
I combined it and made my own wallpaper.

This is my desktop at the office (Bank of Canada), so that's why it's
cluttered with folders, i always need to access rapidly a lot of files. If
WinAmp is not minimized, it's because i put it Always on Top, so as to
view the many different skins i have..... and therefore, it's now part of
my desktop. (BTW, the skin you see was done by me.)

Here's a happy submission portraying a scary-looking family after
encountering me, armed with a graphics program. I wasn't satisfied with
the way my icons looked, so i decided to make them invisible and "paint"
the "icons" directly onto the background; well, at least the ones i could
change anyway.

after visiting many desktop theme sites, i was unable to find a theme of
hideo nomo, my favorite baseball player. so, armed with a mess of hideo
nomo photos i grabbed off various sites on the web, i designed my own
wallpaper. combining it with baseball-themed icons and cursors, i came
up with this. (when i get enough pictures of nomo as a 'met', i'll make
a new one.)

The biggest controversies out today is the debate whether Star Trek is
better than Star Wars. This Wallpaper was created to help the mind
focus on this hot issue. This would really be a great episode.

This is a 3D skeleton I rendered with Poser,
my wife says it's stance looks "obscene"; but
it's supposed to look like he's jumping down
stomp on the viewer's head... Critics, sheesh.

It shows Rally Vincent and Minnie May Hopkins from the manga
"GunSmithCats". I really like that series. I downloaded it
some time ago, but I had to enlarge and mirror it, because
Rally is righthanded. Also I've painted the lower part, which
is normally hidden behind the taskbar, myself, because I put
my taskbar on top most of the time. But the icons are all
standard, I'm afraid.

What can I say? I am the ULTIMATE Kagato fan! This is the only picture I could find where Kagato actually looks like he's winning, while keeping his cool look, and brandishing his energy sword. "YES! GO KAGATO! CUT TENCHI DOWN! MWA HA HA HA!!!" And that's what I hate Pioneer for, killing Kagato in OAV #6, I mean why? He was the best villain ever to grace... well anything. They should have kept him around.

The wallpaper are the "Ampelmnnchen" how we call them in Germany. They were the traffic-light-signs for the pedestrians in the GDR (German Democratic Republic or "Eastern Germany"). After the reunion of Germany on 3rd of October 1990 they where replaced by the old "Western Germany" signs. But the "Ampelmnnchen" are looking much better and so there are fan-clubs and they are cult! (I do really like them!) My Icons are from an Icon-Collection and from the "Becoming the Dragon" Homepage. The Icon I like most is the "Krmelmonster" out of the "Sesame street". It's my Icon for the CIH-Virus-Killer and it's clicked a lot during a month (I'm a careful person...).

I found this great pic of Rei from Evangelion. Like the series, it's dark,
morbid, yet very elegantly made. The words on the right mean something like,
"Come, ____ Death." I have NO clue what the middle word means, but if
you know German (or whatever), let me know!

My BG is a Rei Ayanami patchwork that I made. She's my fave Evangelion char,
specialy when she's "out of context", like in ep. 26. The "Poste de travail"
(My computer) icon is Rei again. I used a thumbnail from a web page and refined
it to have this. The "Voisinage réseau" (Network neighborhood) icon is Fal (or
Rika in the english version) from megadrive/genesis game Phantasy Star 4.
Refined from a screen shot of the game. Awesome game, BTW!! The "Corbeille"
(recycle bin) icon is from Neo-Geo game King of Fighter 97. The others icons
are from PC game StarCraft from Blizzard, the most addictive real-time strategy
game to date!!

Here's a shot of my desktop for your page. I'm a huge Major Matt Mason fan
and have devoted web space to the collecting of the toy. My desktop image
was created by someone on the MMM e-mail list (see my page www.wildtoys.com
to join). Folders to the left are commonly used applications and folders.
Folders to the right are commonly used folders that are all toy related.
Applications along the bottom are Web related (I'm a professional web
developer). Applications that I use the most are in the title bar (Windows
98 feature!).

I've snuck this in, because it's such a great desktop :) -- DA
 
Surprise! A Macintosh desktop! My desktop is of Jackie Chan, in case you
couldn't tell. I've been a Jackie Chan fan since about 1991, when a friend
made me rent "Police Force". I decided that Jackie Chan would make a good
desktop theme, and not finding any on the net that I liked, I made my own.
The picture is a promo shot from Rumble in the Bronx.
I normally have a very cluttered desktop, but since I have such a small
screen, I removed most of the icons before I snapped this shot. The icons
that are left are my 2 hard drives (a can of soup and a can of spam are
the icons) and the trash can.

Being a HUGE Nascar fan...I thought this would be a proper image
to display my Fanatic devotion to the sport and driver Jeff Gordon.
Hope everyone enjoys the image and is not offended by the choice of driver.

Another Macintosh desktop, but
only because she's a good friend ;) -- DA
"I love my Mac. I love Chicago. I love NU. Please don't make
me leave! Okay, well, here's my desktop. I've got a
Power Macintosh 7200 running MacOS 8.1. My desktop picture
is an aerial view of Chicago's lakefront. My hard drive is
named 'SarahBrownEyes' after my favorite song in the musical
'Ragtime.'"

I got the background picture from one of my favorite animation
Evangelion. I like the way Asuka and Rei standing together. Well,
the background's yellow color is too light, but the contrast between
Asuka and Rei's black clothes are nice.

I was browsing through some anime skins and came across one of yours (Maiison
Ikkoku) and checked out your website and wanted to add my desktop to your lil'
collection! Well, talk to you later...I gotta run off to hockey practice.
