The MAMD Desktop
Buddy-extraordinaire, Brown Baron, has tagged me with the “What’s on your desktop?” meme. Ordinarily, I change the wallpaper to suit the season. I’ve been meaning to change it for Halloween to get into the spirit of things (no pun intended), but I just haven’t gotten around to it yet.
I can’t stand a cluttered desktop, so I keep it pretty lean. But it would be a different story if I had to show what my directories looked like. Ugh! 
[TAG STARTS HERE]
My Desktop Free View Instruction:
A. Upon receiving this tag, immediately perform a screen capture of your desktop. It is best that no icons be deleted before the screen capture so as to add to the element of fun.
You can do a screen capture by: [1] Going to your desktop and pressing the Print Scrn key (located on the right side of the F12 key). [2] Open a graphics program (like Picture Manager, Paint, or Photoshop) and do a Paste (CTRL + V). [3] If you wish, you can “edit” the image, before saving it.
For MAC users: Press [ Apple] [ Ctrl ] [ Shift ] and [ 3 ]
B. Post the picture in your blog. You can also give a short explanation on the look of your desktop just below it if you want. You can explain why you preferred such look or why is it full of icons. Things like that.
C. Tag five of your friends and ask them to give you a Free View of their desktop as well.
D. Add your name to this list of Free Viewers with a link pointing directly to your Desktop Free View post to promote it to succeeding participants.

Hi Mark! Surprise that your desktop is drum free
But a great picture that is! I have added your post to my list.
Mark | Sep 28, 2007 | Reply
@Baron: That’s all right, you probably never see your desktop anyway with having your web browser all the time, I’m sure.
@Jos: yep, I keep the drums on my blog only.
Thanks for adding me, buddy!

I’m exactly the same. One folder for me, one for Honey, a Firefox shortcut, and the bin. That’s all. But don’t even try to get into a folder, because you’ll never find your way back out.

@People in the Sun: I think it’s a sign that we have calm composures on the outside, but inner turmoil on the inside. LOL

Thank you for the tag, sadly enough I’ve already tried to do this meme and couldn’t figure out how to take the screen shot…
Oh well, I do appreciate the thought though! 
Aaron Cook | Sep 28, 2007 | Reply
Hey buddy, thanks for the tag! I just got my post up…I think you’ll enjoy the audio commentary; it’s pretty lively.
Anyway, hope you’re having an awesome weekend!
Shine on,
Aaron

@Aaron: I’m looking forward to hearing you.

@Christy: I can help you with that. There’s a great screen capture utility I use. It’s called Faststone Capture. Trust me, it’s a nice tool to keep by your side.

Hey Mark. The audio is up now! Had a brief power outage here and wasn’t able to get the audio link up in time the first time around.
Nonetheless, all audio clips are now live!
Shine on,
Aaron

Mark, interesting desktop picture. Your desktop is cleaner than mine. I need to put the photo I had on my desktop back on.
Mark | Sep 29, 2007 | Reply
@Rose: I was in a unique mood I guess to have chosen such an unusual wallpaper. Now I’m off to hunt down a great Halloween one! Woo-hoo!

@Bobby: LOL, I’m not sure about the mushrooms, but glad they’re only digital.
Thanks for the link back and meme. I’m trying to schedule my posts for the week and will be sure to include that.
