eat your heart out pc!
i know i said i would post a new pict every day, but well, i am pretty bad about that. anyways, at least i am posting nearly every day.
for those of you who have macs here is a cool surprise.
1. go to sys prefs and turn off expose. meaning - should be selected for the keys. also, go to screensaver and choose something pretty like cosmos!

2. then open up terminal. applications>utilities>terminal.

3. then paste in this command and press return:
/System/Library/Frameworks/ScreenSaver.framework/Resources/ScreenSaverEngine.app/Contents/MacOS/ScreenSaverEngine -background &
make sure there aren't any line breaks. now, minimize all your windows so you can see your desktop. pretty huh? when you want it to stop, just quit terminal or close that window with the command.
hopefully this makes up for a lack of pictures.
this is an old trick. make sure you turn off expose as shown. otherwise it messes it up. apparently, i have been told if you were to try to do this on a pc it would crash the system.
