What pic/photo is on your desktop?

[dixiegrrrrl]

Looking for new ideas.
this is the current one: I actually feel cooler looking at it.

1. Here's mine...

[Ptah]

2. Rolling fields

[GoCubsGo]

4. Is that the Palouse?

[Ptah]

5. I've been told it is.

[dixiegrrrrl]

13. It is, indeed, the Palouse.

Used to live out in that area, as a youngster.
Here is another similar pic:

Gives me calming, restful feelings.

[Arugula Latte]

64. I got a peaceful, easy feeling

and I know you won't let me down
'cause I'm already standing on the ground.

Oops, sorry, just channeled the Eagles for a moment.

[PassingFair]

52. Reminds me of a Grant Wood landscape.

[Shadowflash]

3. Xenozoic cover illustration

by art god Mark Schultz.

[Archae]

36. Cadillacs and Dinosaurs!

[Shadowflash]

38. Yup!

[GoCubsGo]

6. A link to mine

I got it from National Geographic's wallpaper section, so it's huge:

http://photography.nationalgeographic.com/photography/photo-of-the-day/octopus-hawaii-pod-best09/

National Geo is a goldmine for desktop wallpaper.

[dixiegrrrrl]

16. Impressive. And lots of good background space.

[Liberal_in_LA]

60. thanks! I pick random pics of nature also. will check out National Geo

[Blue_In_AK]

7. This is what I have up right now,

but it's probably time to change it. This is a photo of Homer, Alaska, small boat harbor.

[IMG][/IMG]

[WillParkinson]

25. Where is it?

I can't see the S.S. Minnow, but I know it has to be there.

[Blue_In_AK]

34. I wouldn't be surprised.

There are some great names for boats down there. SS Minnow is probably one.

[dixiegrrrrl]

66. Here, Blue...have some real cold:

[IMG][/IMG]

[Blue_In_AK]

67. Ah, that's nice. :)

[frogmarch]

8. I love the picture!

It is refreshing to look at it. Also, it's lovely in and of itself.

[Blue_In_AK]

9. If you're looking to chill,

I'll give you this one.

[IMG][/IMG]

[dixiegrrrrl]

14. My eyeballs froze and fell out!

As i sit here in sweltering humidity, that gave me a not too unappreciated blast of coolness.

[Blue_In_AK]

20. It's cool and rainy here today.

I wish I could share.

The photo is from Nome a couple of years ago in March when we were out there for the Iditarod. It was really, really cold.

[harmonicon]

10. A picture of my dog.

An ex-girlfriend of mine has my dog now, which pisses me off to no end, but at least I've got a nice picture.

[begin_within]

11. Currently this,

which came built-in as one of the choices on my Mac Mini.

[dixiegrrrrl]

15. Love the colors and the clean lines of that breathtaking view.

Wow.

[Blue_In_AK]

18. That's very pretty.

I don't know where it is, but it reminds me of Turnagain Arm south of Anchorage.

[Tuesday Afternoon]

12. never mind.

17. This one:

I took it several years ago...

I have most of my icons on the left where they cover up the blank space.

22. Lilacs.

[dixiegrrrrl]

23. Ohh. I miss lilacs.

I had bunches of lilac trees when I lived in the Pac. NW.
Down here, the closest thing to lilacs are Crepe Myrtles, but they have no smell.

[femmocrat]

24. My dogs.

We change the pictures fairly often. Right now we have one of them in deep snow. They look so cute.

[bluedigger]

26. Right now?

I have a folder of photos loaded from my last trip in the San Juan National Forest. They change every seven minutes, I think.

[AsahinaKimi]

27. This is mine...

Wonder if anyone can guess what GAME this is from?

[Archae]

30. I can't remember the name...

But it's some sort of game where that character is in our dreams.

Going to check some at Gamespot...

Bingo!

[dixiegrrrrl]

43. Ohh..I know that artist..I think.

I wanna say..Hopper??

[cyberswede]

49. That made me lol.

[NJCher]

40. where I get wallpapers

I read lots of interior decor, food, and computer graphic arts magazines on the computer. When I find a page layout or photo I like, I'll often save it to use as wallpaper.

I have a monitor that swivels to page view. It's great for reading magazines!

I like this image because of the airiness and light.


[IMG][/IMG]

I love your rain image, dixiegrrrrl. It very much conveys the fresh, renewing feeling of rain.


Cher

[dixiegrrrrl]

45. I like your image too.

Very refreshing.
drooling over those windows, btw...we have ones like them in the older part of the house.

53. I'm boring. Usually I use a plain color.

Recently I'm using Debian's spacefun.



I'm still thinking maybe that's too distracting.

Actually this is a big step up for me. I was happy with green letters on a black background.

[Gold Metal Flake]

56. The Wall Of Cake is mine
