Press the PrintScreen button
Load up your image editing program
Save the image as a JPEG and when saving choose the advanced options button/tab/etc and reduce the image quality to 80%
If your desktops bigger then 1024x768 try reducing the size of the image too

Forgive me for my ignorance, but did D.C. Simpson make the adult versions of Ozy and Millie in your avatar, or was that fan based art? :?

Yes he did. They are viewable in the pages separating the years. I'm not sue which one tho.

I believe DC Simpson drew those because he was kicking around the idea of drawing a story or two set in Ozy and Millie's teen years. I could be wrong though.

Interesting that you make such complex desktop pictures when the O&M site has opted for a fittingly simple style.

He's only saying that you've gone for an extremely complex montage of Ozy and Millie images when the Ozy and Millie site strives for a simple and clean layout. This could be interpreted as a move towards simplicity and minimalism.

However that's David Simpson's approach, this is your desktop, you should be able to have any image you want.

Me, I like the simplicity as well. I always use a single image. I can't stand a lot of icons on my desktop, which is why I only have 7 or 8 of them, and 5 of those are shortcuts.

Edit - By the way, Loeln, I really like your Moses picture.
