Could be fun...
Could be I'm just this bored...

1) What's your desktop resolution?

2) Post a screenshot of your desktop as it looks at this time.

I'm at 1024x768

Well since I've never done this before....

I hit "print screen" and pasted it into Microsoft Paint. Then saved as a Jpeg.

Wow! I must really suck. Mine is just the windows 7 logo and a ton of icons for different things. Maybe I will show it anyways.

Well, 1st off, I usually change my wallpaper every few days (sometimes) hours.

1) I hit print screen, which puts it on the Windows Clipboard feature.

2) I go into ThumbsPlus and paste the contents of the Clipboard to a file.

3) I save it to a file.

4) Then I convert the .BMP files to something smaller, .PNG as it's makes for the clearest image, and it's good to go.

This isn't the latest version of ThumbsPlus. Actually have a more advanced version, but I like this one best.
