It's for Morrowind, though I don't really play anymore. It has tons of nice options and generally adds about 2-5 fps more when playing by my estimation. It's got stuff to change the music track playing ingame just by hitting a key  and some true 3D stuff for the Radeon 9700 that I can't use because I have a GF4 Ti 4200.

Yeah, it was a tad daft of me to run XP on a P266, but, it worked (after I'd upgraded the RAM from 32meg to 192meg, put a new graphics card in, a new sound card, two new hard drives, a 52x CD drive and 52x CD-RW and an ethernet card).
And that's the beta of Office 2003, which you can get free off Microsoft simply by asking for it. My dad signed up for some program they have going (that costs nothing, BTW), and they sent us a 16 CD pack of their lastest software, including the full version of Windows Server 2003. It all supposedly times out after so long but, well, there are ways around that.

In the process of coloring.
The full size version looks much better.

I drew it. I should learn script-fu and make a gimp-tool to make it easier.

As before. Ugly. No, not only ugly. My desktop is not ugly. My desktop is the very definition of the most unbelievably, earth-shatteringly, obscenely, horribly unsightly... thing you can ever see on the screen of a computer. You could condense my desktop, put it in small bottles, and sell it as a paint peeler. You could use it to scare children... and just as easily to make many a grow man cry. It does not show on the screenshots, but my default cursor is the big, ugly X that is loathed by 99% of the people who actually know about its existence. The only saving grace of my desktop is that there is so little of it. Where each line is in the wrong place, all windows in complete disarray, fonts in the antithesis of harmony... there is the less ugliness the less there is anything.
I like it that way.
