Going through my fileserver recently I stumbled upon the directory I'd put screenshots in over the years that I've used Linux. It covers back from 1999 until the present, enjoy.
My first linux computer running
Redhat 6.1 using
GNOME v1.0.39 from 1999, this shot was taken in 2000 and shows all the fun of connecting via dial-up.

Still running GNOME this time I believe it's
Mandrake in 2001

My
Windowmaker fetish begins while running on Debian circa fall of 2001

My
Fluxbox fetish begins in 2002

More Fluxbox goodness, from senior year in 2002

Fluxbox again after college graduation in 2003

Final Fluxbox shot after I moved to San Diego in 2004

Moving onto
XFCE in 2004

And finally, full circle we come back to
GNOME running on Debian in 2008
