That was a FAST reply ![]() The top one is an Windows Vista desktop apparently. I took the bottom one, it's a stone circle in the Lake District. I mostly have flowers, motorcycles, lions, tigers, Hubble images and so on plus a few simple outdoor pictures I've taken. When you work on a PC for hours on end, I think it's a good idea to have simple nature pictures. |

I just use a maroon/black pattern that kind of resembles one of those 3D illusion pictures, which came with Windows. On my old computer I used to have Webshots downloaded onto my desktop and had rotating pictures. I'm happy with this one for a while now, though. |

I have two. On my lap top something related to Dewey's. It has been there to remind me to take care of a bit of business. Once that it done, a pic of my (other) kids will be returned. ![]() The other is on my home desk top, a view of the local cranberry bog, a rare treasure in our area. Seems to be located on another computer...

Heh, Bee Lady, tell me you recognized my wallpaper right away, before I explained it to Frank. I laughed to myself when I posted it thinking, "she's gonna see that, and say, 'Hey, I know where that is!' " Man, I can't wait to see them all again. |

This is what I have now; I change mine fairly often. I needed something warm and dry, and light, for this cold, dark, rainy season.
