What's wrong with the fractals? They are very interesting in my opinion. In any case, this will amuse you; the old Windows screenshot shortcut doesn't work on Typhon . I don't know why, but he doesn't like taking screenshots using "Printscreen" alone, or in any combination with ALT, CTRL, SHIFT, etc, etc. Go on, make fun of him, but be sure to theorise and think about WHY it doesn't work (and I'm using XP SP1 (SP2 is not my cup o' GB ) not Windows 2.0, so don't go there. I'm on to you!).

you're right, Wabbit, I am rather amused; no doubt the PrtScrn/SysRq button on your keyboard dumps the coal out or releases the steam pressure in Typhon's wheezing boiler. Is it true that your keyboard is so old it's got Roman numerals?

Maybe your attempts to match the rest of us with modern desktops have proven too much for ol' Typhon and his 16mb of fast-page mode running in 386 enhanced mode? maybe you should go back to those DOS bootdisks and use your pitiful amount of RAM as EMS, it's probably better that way - and you can play Privateer again too!

As for a possible solution to your problem, I really don't see why I should deign to help you, due to your unfeasibly large ears and tendency to burrow, but in the spsirit of amity and largesse to one's fellow creatures, try checking you haven't got the F-lock key turned off, or the Scroll Lock key on, or both, and that your keyboard settings are correct in both Windows (2.0 in your case) and in your BIOS. Don't just assume, go and look!

Here is one of the other ones on rotation, maybe it'll keep us on topic

very nice (apart from her rude unladylike gesture.) but who is it though? I'm afraid I'm not very well acquainted with the various young starlets of today.

Taw, i think this interview may help

Wed Jan 10, 2007 2:15 pm by Tawakalna

oh the skater girl! no wonder I didn't recognise her. I didn't think she was still famous. Does she still do pop songs?

very funny link, CV, thx!

I tried your suggestions Taw, even though I took the same approach six months ago, however I had no success. I even updated the KB driver, and it had no effect either.

Well, got my rotation going - and changed my lady of preference.
Tough to find really nice images of her to be honest - this new 19inch LCD TFT monitor thing has a silly resolution which makes it tough to get crystal clear images.
As it is, these were done into pngs, but the quality of the image is pretty dire as a result - it shouldn't be, but it is. Maybe it's imageshack - dunno. Anyways, they're crystal clear and good colours/contrasts on the actual monitor.

Obviously click for larger images.

I prefer more nature ones, rather than people.

I don't recognise any of these girls on your desktop, Chips; who's that now? she looks familiar but I can't quite place her? yes I know she's an actress, they all are these days, actress/model/singer-whatever.

FD - that's quite pleasant, in a whimsical sort of way. I have fruit trees now.

You don't reconize Natalie Portman?

Sun Jan 21, 2007 3:44 pm by Tawakalna

oops! oh yeah. i thought it was some French girl, silly me!

Mon Jan 22, 2007 10:04 am by Chips

Frenchies not on current rotation... although they will be soon. Not my fault the French somehow manage to have an awesome array of totty.

Portman, however, is tough... i mean impossible to beat. Please note that all me ladies have clothes on
