Let me show you something!

(click image to enlarge)

I was tagged by Bucky with a meme where I have to take a screen shot of my computer desktop and display it for the blogging world to see. Bucky says that he is also glad it’s his pc desktop he is showing off, and not his “wood” desktop that is full of crap and clutter.

That is one of the good things about this meme. I am very much relieved that you don't get to see the large oak table full of stuff nobody would want to see, where my notebook is on. And you should be, too. It's a frightening sight!


[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.

List of those who have participated:

Nice desktop! No icons in sight...lol. :)

I like your tag as well...lets just hope the entire group participates!

Jos said...

Thanks, buddy. Yeah, I hardly use icons (if you have a good browser and a few blogs, who needs icons ;
If the entire group participates, that would indeed be great!

Nice desktop! It is cleaner than mine.

Jos said...

Thanks Rose. I only see my desktop on booting up -- never use it to put something up there.

iRonnie said...

thanks for doing the tag. you may want to check out others who also gave a Free View of their desktop.

have a great day!

Jos said...

Hi iRonnie, thanks for dropping by at my blog and pointing my attention to this. I think it is a wonderful idea to show as many participants as you can trace! It’s a pity, but understandable, that you have not listed all of them with thumbnails… If you change your mind and decide to make thumbnails of all of them, please let me know. I would love to make a post on my blog with that!

Thank you for his great initiative!
