CHOULO19 24,332 Posted February 7, 2012 Share Posted February 7, 2012 :lol: what the heck!LOL A black backgroung uses less power than colored ones, I'm a total freak about stuff like that . Any more than 6 icons on the desktop gives me a headache and I have my icons on the right just because everyone has them on the left. As I said originally, probably not worth sharing..

TacticalBlues 2,817 Posted February 7, 2012 Share Posted February 7, 2012 Urgh photobucket is crap.Could you share that epic wallpaper? ok, I'm going to have to upload it though because it was a quick wallpaper I did on Photoshop. I'll make an imageshack account I think, then just add the link when it's doneEDIT: Here you go mate: (quite grainy, but when its set as wallpaper on my 17" desktop it looks much better, view image to get the full size) francozola, termninja and fAnta 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

termninja 5,290 Posted February 8, 2012 Share Posted February 8, 2012 No... videogames?.....I played every decent game from 2003 until now. RPGs, MMOs, Shooters, RTS, Simulations etc...I simply don't have the passion I had before. Playing games for more then 6hours daily was completely normal to me before.Now, I start the game, play a bit and then I get bored and get the deja vu feel. There are some much more important things in life.I'm glad I can't play them anymore, there is so much time in life when you don't waste half a day staring at monitor...

It's quite nice to enjoy other things at the weekends rather than sitting on my arse for hours at a time in front of a screen (seeing as I do that at work for 9 hours a day anyway).

Spike 12,049 Posted February 8, 2012 Share Posted February 8, 2012 LOL A black backgroung uses less power than colored ones, I'm a total freak about stuff like that . Any more than 6 icons on the desktop gives me a headache and I have my icons on the right just because everyone has them on the left. As I said originally, probably not worth sharing..Are you sure? Because I'm certain that a Black background and a multicoloured background will consume the same amount of Joules over any given period of time.But I suppose it also depends on what type of monitor is used whether it be LCD, LED or Plasma.Also I have a lot of Wallpapers if anyone wants any. It strange how many I have. termninja 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It depends on the type of monitor. CRT monitors save a lot of energy with balck wallpapers; With LCDs, the number is almost negligible.
