I like clean, uncluttered desktops but will sometimes have shortcuts to various hard drives and mapped drives. How do I decide whether or not I do? It depends on the current background wallpaper!

Your all-in-one video and audio recorder
The Q3 uses the same microphone capsules as Zoom's incredible H4n Handy Recorder, making it perfect for recording anything where great audio and video are a must. The list of your recording possibilities is endless: record band performances and rehearsals, interviews, conferences, video casts, school events, and more - the Zoom Q3's amazing audio quality takes your videos to another level.

Built-in stereo microphones for brilliant audio recording
The Zoom Q3 has two condenser microphones onboard, engineered in an X/Y pattern for excellent imaging. Arranged with the right and left microphones on the same axis, this design ensures that the microphones are always an equal distance from the sound source for perfect capture, without phase issues. The result is a great sounding recording with natural depth and highly accurate imaging every time... all at the touch of a Q3 button

i keep trying to add a smaller version of this to the earth day project over at earthmosaic.org but keep getting this error message:

Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 8388608 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 2560 bytes) in /home/earthmos/public_html/process.php on line 134.

crumbs.

edit: success uploading after resizing to 640 pixels wide myself before uploading to the earthmosaic site. i suspected their uploader was having trouble with images that were too big, despite being smaller than 500kb. if you're having trouble, resize, and if you need an editing program to do it, i suggest pixlr (i use pixlr when not at home: www.pixlr.com/)).

Love the default icon and how they're addressing users like email messages.

(I know I tumbled this image, too...just wanted to test a new flickr uploader and this was all I had handy)
