I'm sorry, look at this screenshot:
http://www.crystalxp.net/galerie/img/th2_117.jpg
Thats a Windows xp desktop using the CrystalXP theme.
And a ton of those icons are taken straight from the KDE Crystal icon theme! I used KDE for long enought to recognize one of its most popular icon themes......
BTW, the CrystalXP team just ignored my email, so I've sent one to the KDE licensing mailing list. Maybe the CrystalXP folk will actually listen to the people who created the artwork they are ripping-off.

coolb, while screenshot means different things to different people, i suggest you refrain from using such language against fellow LQ members. Thank you.

Thank you shrikant.odugoudar. I appreciated it. However, it is pretty clear to me that coolb is very, very young, so we better ignore him and leave his parents to teach him how to behave.
For now, I am adding him to my long ignore list, because the time wasted with him is just not worthy ^_^;;

Wow, way to mess up a thread. "Screenshot" means a snapshot of your desktop - not a particular app. So while it may have mildly humourous once, to keep showing a full screen shot of your game just wastes time, bandwidth and makes people cross.
Before posting think: is what I am saying moving the discussion along, being helpful or in any way interesting? Only post if the answer is yes.

coolb, shame on you  !
Let's just post desktop screenshots please and keep it under wrap with off-topic stuff.
I (and I'm sure I speak for all LQers here) wouldn't want the mods to stop this wonderful thread.
It certainly has been some time since I've posted my screenshot, but here it is:
http://www.slackmagic.com/uploads//f..._1680x1050.png
02272007_4441_1680x1050.png PNG 1680x1050 1.11991mb
- fluxbox 1.0rc2 (without toolbar - it's all in $HOME/.fluxbox/keys baby!, some transparency on the menu)
- tvtime running on CNN (muted)
- xmms with "Marina White" skin Link
& "Root Spectrum Analyzer" visualization plugin (green bars to the right) Link
- mrxvt terminals (##slackware with irssi - usually work with screen but for a screenshot it's always nice to have a seperate terminal up  )
- firefox with LQ of course
- conky with minimal stats for a nice/clean/minimal desktop look
- wallpaper from fluid-art off deviantART Link
hm...I think that's all I see off the screenshot - have fun
