Desktop Meme

We were tagged for the Desktop Meme by TT Girl. It wasn't clear if we were supposed to show the screen with all the windows we were using, or just the actual desktop, so we show both. (as usual, clicking on the images brings up a larger copy)

We tend to use the desktop as a catch-all to stash any temporary links or images we or The Food Source might want soon.

Enough said, here, we think.


Here are the rules for the meme:

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.


Here’s how you can do a screen capture:

1.Go to your desktop and press the Print Scrn key (located on the right side of the F12 key).

Mommy bean note: On a laptop you use the Fn + prt sc keys then paste it into a graphics program.

2.Open a graphics program (like Picture Manager, Paint, or Photoshop) and doing a Paste (CTRL + V). If you wish, you can “edit” the image before saving it.

3.Post the picture on your blog. You can also give a short explanation on the look of your desktop if you want. You can explain why you prefer such a look or why it is full of icons. Things like that.

4.Tag five of your friends and ask them to give you a Free View of their desktops as well.


We decided to tag
  1. Skeeter and LC. We hope they get the word (they've been having email problems).
  2. Frodo, of Frodo's Catscentric World.
  3. Meisha, of Meisha's Meows.
  4. The Ginger Cats. We really hope they respond. Their blog is mesmerizing.
  5. We'll leave the fifth tag open. We were planning to tag The Pet Museum, but under the circumstances, we doubt the Curator is in the mood right now.

We thank you very much for tagging us and we will see what we can do,But we fear that we do not have enough paws between us to press all the right keys!
Meanwhile the sun has come back to Wales and we are having extra summer.
Love from the gingercats.

Everyone has their own way of using their Desktop -- hey, all that matters is whether it works for the owner.

Tiger Lily said...

Oooh, my Mom wants to know how you find things with that many files on your Desktop. She never can with even just a few. (I think she's almost blind, but don't tell her I said so.)

Mark's Mews (Marley, Lori, Loki, and Binq) said...

Frodo said...

Whoa! That's one loaded desktop! Very cool! Well, my bean is not that much more computer literate than me so I will ask her if she can figure it out. Our desktop is quite boring here. Coffee mugs in the background with about 8 icons... I'll see what the lady can do though. Thanks for tagging me! :)

Parker said...

You have more icons than we do!

Angel MoMo and Charlotte said...

Hi guys, thanks +++ for coming by my blog. Nice to have more friends to talk to. You see, I am a bit vain and really wouldn't want a shave, even in the heat of an Australian summer. SS has used different combs and brushes but it's no good. I just don't want to be tampered with.

SS is absolutely hopeless with computer stuff, so I don't think I should stress her out with your recommenations on desktop.

Nudges and purrs,
MoMo

Angel MoMo and Charlotte said...

Hi, It's me, MoMo, again. Thanks for the link to Pablo. I did try to talk to him before but he has taken refuge under a blanket and is showing only a nose at present. My comment/purr therefore has to wait to be approved. GOK when he is coming out!

Let you in on a secret, SS is not much good at sport and knows very little about AFL.

I stopped in to say hi, glad you came over to my blog. It is always nice to meet new friends.
I noticed right away your rememberance to those little ones who had the unfortunate chance to have dangerous foods in the stores for their mom or dad to buy. My heart goes out to all of those who were lost.
I read about you guys and I think Allie and I have the most incommon with interests, yep-eating & sleeping. Two of my favorites. Got to go for now. See you later

Sassy Kat said...

I don't really know much about the computer stuff but it sure was impressive to see.
I want to let you and all of your friends know that I am having a Halloween party this Sunday. Check out my blog for the details. I hope everyone can come and bring your friends with you, spread the word. Hope to see ya.

Yes, It is ME, Anastasia! Karl was thoughtful enough to put the Dare out on the Day of the Dead, so I can come personally! And if you don't accept the challenge, I might just come again and haunt you, Hahahahahahahahaha!
