He has both indicators active thus negating his option to drive which ever side is free.

Well mine's obviously from the Ford website, but all the same, I have taken a liking to the Territory recently, and so this is what my wallpaper is for the time being. It's usually some other Ford related thing though.

I pressed Print Screen, copied it into paint and saved it as a bitmap. I then uploaded that.

OK. I'll give some more thorough steps.

1. At your desktop, press the "Print Screen" button on your keyboard. It is in the top right hand corner

2. Open Microsoft Paint. Either got to the edit menu and click paste, or press [CTRL] and [V] together

3. Save the file

4. Open up an image uploading website like www.photobucket.com or imageshack.us, and upload the file to it

5. Copy the corresponding URL into your post.

Hope this helps!

It's an Ubuntu Linux system running a program called gdesklets.
Why would you want to change the wallpaper? That's Jimi Hendrix mate :P

Yeah, armadillo run is awesome, stuck at level 43 though, only 3 levels to go lol, plus the extras.

Don't have S2 license for LFS, played it at my mates house accross the road and thought it was ****, so I just stuck to drifting in the GT.
