I used this one for a while (thought it was funny when people came over and watch my screen), but for the rest I stick with plain blue like Darkt.

Tiger, I'll look around and see if I can find the origin. It's much bigger.

Put this on someone's desktop. It's fun! Oh and be sure to move their real icons around so they're a ^$%* to find

There are much better ways of doing that Isaac:
1) Close all programs and press the printscreen button on their desktop.
2) Paste the new screen cap of their desktop into mspaint, save to the desktop as untitled.bmp.
3) Set untitled.bmp as the desktop background.
4) Right click on the desktop, select arange icons by, uncheck \"Show Desktop Icons\".
5) Right click the taskbar, uncheck \"Lock the Taskbar\".
6) Drag the edge of the taskbar all the way to the bottom of the screen.
7) Done.

1)buy a bat
2)smash his work station
3)wait for him to try to use it
4)jump out and yell, "ha! got ya!"

Right after he beats you halfway to death using the bat that you used.
And if he's in a bad mood, he might try to "steal the peach" too.

Uh, you see, the beauty in Krom's method is this:

The victim will probably have no idea what's wrong. Something like that would look suspiciously like a desktop freeze - and the victim would end up rebooting, finding the problem is STILL THERE, maybe trying once or twice more...

...and if they are smart they might notice what really happened (this is the point where you hide). If not, um ... :D Tech support will get quite a laugh out of it.

Many desktops are like Marshmallow Froot Loops; mine is like Cheerios.
