Either I haven’t searched hard enough, or this forum’s been without a screenshot thread way too long.

Here's mine 1680x1080 and half size. This is actually half my desktop, as I've got my TV set up as a second monitor at 1280x720. But on there is only a couple of media player icons and the lone link to IE found anywhere on my desktop or starrt menu, for the sole purpose of Netflix instant viewing.

It's Linux Mint, which is based off Ubuntu.

Jeff in Linux Mint, what is the GUI? KDE?

It's Gnome, but they also have a KDE version (this one is Gnome with a slightly modified taskbar.)

oh.

I love gnome, I am not a big fan of KDE

I'm pretty indifferent between the two. For a while I had both on my computer, and some days I would use Gnome, while others I would use KDE.

Incidentally, Ubuntu is orange/brown by default.

Do you prefer Slab, Jeff?

If I did not play UO or any other games I'd probably switch to Linux as my main OS. I *could* dual boot for games, but then it defeats the purpose, may as well setup everything in one OS instead of spread all over.

hey Chris Vogel, once I get time to install Ubuntu you gotta hit me up with your theme.

It's just the Clearlooks theme (I think it comes as one of the defaults on Ubuntu), but with green window titles instead of the normal blue.

Clearlooks-GreenMod

I cycle chiefly through Clearlooks and its variants. It never gets boring.

This thread to the Ubuntu forums is about a year old, but in case the screen resolution doesn't work, it should be useful to you. I think the final solution is on the third page.

normally, I just go on the internet, find a pic I like, and set it as my desktop.

These are my 3 most favorite desktop pics.

The third one is kind of big because I run a huge resolution.
