UserNotFound posted:The 32" screen looks MUCH bigger in person, and because it's an IPS panel the color is good enough for my photo work, and the viewing angle is good enough that there's no problems viewing from about 45 degrees off center from my bed. Are you sure it's IPS? I thought Hitachi and Panasonic were the only ones selling that sort of panel in TVs.

I mean, you could have easily looked this up or something: https://www.lge.com/us/products/documents/lg_he_lcd_ss_32lh40.pdf The entire line of LG's 2009 LCD's over 32" are 120hz+ and s-IPS, I believe.

I've got that same lamp, and a similar colored corner desk (you can see it on the previous page) I think its an accessory for a different table though it fits perfectly on the Galant, I have one too. I'll see if I can find it on the Ikea site. edit: Oh I remember how they do those. I'm not sure if you can get this online, but if you go to an Ikea you just buy one of the table extensions without the frame support (mine for instance is this but without the frame supports one here) and then they have these little legs you buy that just raise it up 6" or whatever it is. The one in the picture above appears to be this one here. If you have to order online I'm sure if you call the order in you can probably get a non-framed version to use as a hutch (as well as the little legs you need) and they come in all the colors the Galant Desks come in. And I don't know about the other guy, but, on mine the little legs aren't actually attached to any specific points, they are just free standing under the extension piece so you can position the legs however you want (as long as its stable  ).

SWEET http://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/products/20054563 plus http://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/products/S79848118 In black-brown might just do the trick The actual hutch made for that desk costs some awful amount like $350:  Click here for the full 1024x683 image.

That's what we both got, those little legs and an extension. Your color looks a lot like mine so you should be good to go with the Dark Brown color. The only thing about the actual hutch part you selected is it has the metal tube framing on it to extend the actual desk surface whereas the ones you can buy in the store for hutch purposes don't have this metal framing attached. I'm not sure how much of a pain it will be to remove the framing section or if it will even be a problem for what you want it for, just wanted to make sure you understood the website.

That wide lens panorama make my desk look almost made for a midget, weird. Anyway, I hate the desk, probably going to make one myself next summer. But that's where I'm typing this post and viewing this thread from.

strwrsxprt posted:Finally got the cables cleaned up. MacBook got an upgrade, and the PS2 was voted off of the island. The monitor got swapped (Dell U2410), router got swapped (AirPort Extreme), Xbox 360 got swapped (Elite) and got banished along with the PS3 to the bookshelf. PC probably got updated a few times too, but it's still the same case. Oh and there's a cute little Mac Mini on the desk now too.  It's awesome having every device hooked up to a single display with room still to spare.

While my first reactions is "wow, that is a lot of displays" my second reaction is it looks great other than the cabling. Also while the print fits it feels really generic and a bit too ikea, but thats the art hound in me. I really like the spacing on all the displays from a visual standpoint.

The displays make sense though. The two of the same size are for my desktop. To the right is my personal laptop that I do all my music/browsing/chatting/email poo poo. Then my work laptop hooked up to a second monitor. The TV on the wall does cable and is also hooked up to a media PC on the floor. Yes I need to do some better cabling. I also would replace my IKEA picture... but one thing at a time... Art is pricey.

strwrsxprt posted:I like the look of the lamps, but they look like a really cool light. Are they LED? Most of the lighting in my room is warmer. They use a little CFL that IKEA also sells. Personally I think that the above picture of it isn't accurate, it's much warmer and less harsh in real life.

I also find it funny in your gif how you disappear, objects magically move themselves, but then someone else is painting the wall. I also know art is expensive. I cheat by doing art trades or doing it myself.

Got my hands on some panographic software and decided to give it a go (it didn't go perfectly, but meh). It's a pretty meh photo, but I thought it was worth posting because it shows (most) of my Frederik and Jerker together, which I only just recently rearranged. Also, I recently installed some under-shelf LED lighting and that didn't seem to turn out very well photographically. I need to adjust both before I try next. Click here for the full 812x1024 image.

feraltennisprodigy posted:Do you use that exercise ball as a chair? Yeah, it's one of these. It's basically a ball with a base to keep it stable and not require constant adjusting to stay on it. I've been having quite a bit of back pain previously, I'd say it's helped a fair bit. The only thing is that it's not height-adjustible (well, you get two heights), I need to get a keyboard tray or possibly a small height-adjustible table for a keyboard surface.

Man I've had the desk for years. I've always loved it because it's huge. I only use the extension pieces and not the actual "desk" unit. I didn't like that the desk was smaller and didn't care for the slide out keyboard drawer. The only downside of the desk is that glass gets VERY cold in the winter. But yeah, paint helps things.
