    Actually what's the purpose of a wallpaper in our desktop. in the busy working, play game, prepare a document, we are not seeing or using it. it sees only when we minimize the whole windows and while logon to windows? so is it required? (Anyway it's quite hectic to see a desktop with wallpaper)

    I don't always run with applications maximized... plus, it's nice to have nice pictures there. For example, I have a lovely black background with the logo from our project[^] on the back. Anyone who walks by my machine when the machine isn't locked and I'm not working with apps full screen can see our "lovely" logo and will immediately want to join our wonderful project.

      The desktop background is the personlty of your computer. For examlpe I prefer my computer to have the "personality" of Pamela Andrson.

          Why hang paintings on a wall when you will only see them coming into and leaving the room? Why wear nice underwear? It is nice to have and for those few seconds you do see it, it is grand.

                Quite debatable. Have you considered how many cases you'll have to eliminate for arriving at what is right?

                      What you are thinking about is not an accident. Could be a lucky day, but not an accident.

                        So what if the Lounge is PG. There are so many kids out there hanging around CP spying on how exactly it feels to be a programmer. Let us say two fast cars, one high on testosterone and the other on estrogen, happen to meet at the gas station. That is a potential accident.

                          I usually close (minimize) all my windows when I have finished something I was working on or when I come back from a break and unlock my computer. That's when bob on my desktop tells me it's time to hit the lounge! :-D It's like a reminder to launch firefox and log in to CP!!
