Ω (Tolerance)

yes, i've been a DB member for probably the last six years or so...almost since he (ryan bliss) started the whole shebang. i love his work and certainly thought it worthy of the living he makes out of it. i once wished i could follow in his footsteps with my own similar site. i put on His armor every day! ...by the way, call me andy. :-) i realize perhaps i should have just used that username, but i figured i wanted people to at least recognize me from in-game. i started with '0 Tolerance' ... then of course my current (and permanent) handle, 'Ω' (omega ... the end) ... but i'm all about being more personal than the net usually is or accepts (at least with the right people). cujo! ! ! ...lets see that beautiful background, not the forums we all can look at ourselves! ;-) ...vista/graphite looks quite nice btw.

i wish i had the dough for a shiny new rig. ...then perhaps i'd get away from anything 'old school' :-P i'm still running an athlon xp 1600+ with PC2100 ram (1gb), and a 64mb gforce4 ti4200. ya, ouch.

wonderful, you guys have a 'post your desktop' thread... ...kudos. if there isn't one on any forum i visit, i start one...so kudos also for your search function. ;-) here be mine ... click the image for full size (1440x900 ... 1.2mb). a few notes: . running win2000 pro . the background can be found at digitalblasphemy.com (ryan bliss does some pretty amazing work) . the specific background is called 'enclave' (and is probably only available in the members area) . the background is cropped to my liking/fitting . within the analog clock, yes, that is the current phase of the moon (running two gadgets with different transparencies on top of each other) . the 'gadgets' are all using either rainlendar or rainmeter (rainy's) . the skins/colors for the calendar, analog clock, and the winamp-running gadget have all been personally customized . in my quick-launch toolbar, the first icon is, indeed, a mini version of my monitor and desktop (which opens 'my computer') . yes, i am an anal-retentive freak ;-) . . . keep 'em coming peoples! i very much enjoy seeing others' ideas and creative interests. these are always great threads.

thanks for the warm welcome guys. wow(!), lots of minnesotans! any baseball fans? ...time to get headshot some more!

just wanted to formally drop you guys a line and say thanks for the GC servers. its great to have a CS:Source server i can call home ... where admins are quick to clean up any trash, but far from abusive ... and players who are knowledgeable, helpful, skilled (some of you ;-)), fans of teamwork and communication, and are mostly all-around decent human beings. certainly the make-up of of a quality place to get one's 'frag' on. thanks guys! . . . on a side note: the server(s) used to be packed! where has everyone gone as of late? can't stand the new radar or what? ;-) i'm normally found playing (poorly, at that) on the recrudescence (scoped) server. plug in peoples!
