Tyler, that is freakin sweet. You can track the weather yourself. Count me in!

As for my desktop, it randomizes every 6 hours between all the good pictures from my website and changes with every restart. Right now its a picture of Cornball Express.

As you can see, it's pretty plain and well organized. If you're wondering: Top Secret is where I keep all of the NL coasters I have made.

I really like the dock on the bottom of the screen for easy access to things. The compass is "Safari" which is the browser I use. Italics and lines in names work for my browser so if someone could add that to the point store it would be nice.

Edit: As you can also see I have a widescreen monitor. Just thought I'd point that out.[:p]

Coaster -- Easiest method for you:

First, ensure you are clicked on NOTHING and everything is either minimized or closed.
Hold down Alt and hit Print Screen twice
Open any paint program
Paste
Save

Well, you are going to have to give some more info than that pal, none of us are sitting there with you to know what you did or did not do. Of course, the error could be between the chair and the keyboard.

Updated desktop!

I've edited my xplanet config so that it basically shows North America (most of it anyway) and the western atlantic. I also found site that provides overlay data for tropical storms, earth quakes, and active volcanoes, again, updated every 3 hours. Cool stuff. And, to answer one or two questions I've got via PM, no you can't do this on Windows.

no, western. Yes, it's at the EAST side of the image, but it's the western side OF THE ATLANTIC.
