Try to add the month and year to your screenshot uploads, if possible 😊

Here are some of my oldest screenshots:

1999-06_eb_desktop1.jpg

June 1999. I was about 13 years old. Windows 95's Control Panel on our Packard Bell MultiMedia 9030.

2003-04-09_eb_desktop1.gif

April 2003. Unreal Tournament 2003, Medal of Honor: Allied Assault and Battlefield 1942. They take me back. I'm surprised I was using IrfanView, even back then (I still do, daily), and even more surprised that the logo/icon hasn't changed! I still use Winamp daily, too.

2003-06-22_eb_desktop1.gif

June 2003. Looks like I was messing around with Serious Samurize.

2004-02-02_eb_desktop1.jpg

February 2004. KaZaA Lite, FlashFXP and Nero Burning ROM!

2004-03_eb_desktop1.jpg

March 2004. A photo of my system, including Link Removed! I was using Link Removed (and a map website along the lines of Nali Maps?) a lot more, back then. I never really got into Quake 3 Arena. Check out the size of the DVD player 😂

2004-05-29_eb_desktop1.gif

May 2004. MSN Messenger and Messenger Plus! Google's Froogle!

2005-03-05_eb_desktop1.JPG

March 2005. Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, a Logitech WingMan Gaming Mouse and my Sagem myX-7. Classics.

This is awesome I bought my first system back in 2003 it was Pentium III with 10 or 20 GB Hard drive, a CD reader and a floppy disk with 128 GB ram and I love playing Age of Empire, GTA, IGI, and Delta force.. It was an amazing thing for me.
