I use the desktop background to revolve around various photos I have taken down the years, currently it is using ones from this years Duxford show and currently has Sally B in close up. I had one of Sally B made into a mouse mat too.

Hi Laurie, It is a 1957 Thunderbird, the same year as me! According to some books I have read it is would actually appear to be a '58 model but registered in '57. Don't ask me how they managed that! ...............and you are right, the noise is beautiful when you ride it hard!

I sometimes use these as desktops as well!

Got to your desktop and then look on your keyboard for the PRT SC button, normally on the right hand side above the numeric keypad, press this once. Then use the mouse to paste in your post and there be your desktop piccie.

Nothing happens Si , should I have minimised the forum page?

 

[eddiesolo]

Yes, have all webpages minimised so you just have your desktop showing...

This is the PRT SC I have just done...right now in fact! It shows the forum screen instead of your desktop.

Er, maybe you have to press function FN button and PRT SC. Failing that open up a paint program, then minimise, PRT SC again and see if you can paste it into your paint program, save and then upload that way.
