For this week's entry, we've got four pictures from Shaard -- and we're even keeping with our Druid theme today! (Although the WoWspace isn't perhaps very Druid-y.) For an in-depth look at a candid and unedited WoWspace, join us after the jump when Shaard tells us all about it.
The character -
Shaard, Level 66 Night Elf Druid on the Thrall Server (US) -- Along with multiple alts.
The computer - (In Red)
24" Aluminum iMac with the ATI Radeon 2600 Pro 256MB video card
-Also powering a 19" Samsung SyncMaster 912n
Wireless Bluetooth Apple keyboard
Wireless Microsoft Intellimouse
RCA 720 watt surround sound system for all game sounds
The communication -
Motorola HT820 Bluetooth Headset for both Ventrilo and Teamspeak depending on the situation (In Blue)
LG VX9800 through Verizon Wireless (In Green)
The game fuel - (In Pink)
Glorious Mountain Dew
My amazing girlfriend, who doesn't yell at me (much) for playing too much WoW
iPod Video (Not the Classic)
The girlfriend's laptop
Unused Apple Mighty Mouse
House Season 1 DVD
Desk purchased from Staples
Planner handed out by my school - Go Dragons!
Bicycle tire pump
Butterfingers, mini marshmallows, a Squirt because I ran out of Dew for a little while
As you can see it is the same desk that I study (very little in my case) and it is in my room here at college. I bought the computer with money I saved up over summer because it was like a dream computer for me. I also use it for work as I do audio/video editing and minor 3D graphic design.
That's right -- Amazing girlfriend does indeed feature in these pictures! See?
If you're feeling brave -- or even if not -- grab your camera, snap a picture of your WoWspace (feel free to include your own version of awesome people) write up a bit about it and send it to us here at WoW Insider before you think twice. Your WoWspace could be featured next!

Looks like a pigs sty! Dud clean your room a little at least.
It looks like a raid of ants dream instance.
I once had a raid of ants hit my room. I put the ice cream cup on the floor. 1 hour later I had a 4000 man ant raid in my house! Lucky I had a powerful aoe to stop them. The tank could not hold my agro.

Sweet. This is exactly how my desk looks like after every weekend. Getting that extra bar > cleaning.

Okay, I'm done. Just a little high strung since the server is down and I didn't get my lunchtime gaming today.

"Although we have to wonder if she's not going to kill him for sending us a picture of her asleep"
I always wondered why people get upset at having their picture on the internets. I mean when you DO go out in public you don't get mad at people looking at you? Do you?

Heh, it's not a question of her being in the picture; it's a question of her being asleep, sans makeup, potentially drooling on the pillow on the Internet that we were wondering about.
When I'm out in public, I'm dressed up. Not face-first in a pillow. :D

probably because the ammount of rapist, child molestors and plain old weirds on the internet who have absolutley no shame in thier game because people on the internet cant reach out and touch you as easily as a person on the street can get thier jollies off to someones photograph, post it all over t he internet and do whatever they want with it. I personally dont put my face on the web.. i'd just rather not have people saving picutres of me to thier computer

Seriously though - it is very uncomfortable to play WoW on the mighty mouse. One button control and nipple zooming is enough to put a bullet in my head. My year old iMac does play WoW beautifully though - wish I could say the same for my new laptop running Vista.

120FPS? what are you running it at 1024 I have a 7900GT and I cap at around 60.

Naix said...
Too bad your eye can't see past 60 fps.

@liel
Probably because you have vsync enabled. It caps at 60, just like your eyeballz.

At first glance I thought wow thats a bunch of sugar ie: Mountain Dew, Butterfingers, Chocolate Covered Pretzels FtW!, and Colored Marshmellows? /shrug. But then poking out of the corner under the second monitor a bag of Pixie Stixs, which either means your GF is sleeping because she is tired or it is 4:00 in the morning and you are still hopped up on sugar taking these photos. =)

Not to mention the pills.
I'm hoping it's Ritalin. Lots of Ritalin.

funny you should say something about taking the pics at 4 in the morning. . if my memory is correct i recall taking them at around 3 or 3:30 in the morning btu you were very close.
for the rest of the comments about the room being very messy and needing to be cleaned. it was. but i also submitted this WoW Space a few months ago, so it has been cleaned many times since then.

Haha, Voecks actually tagged this with "amazing-girlfriend, dorm-living" in the keywords list. Obviously people are going to be searching for those 24/7 on WoW Insider. Not.
