I'm like locally pwned, my desktop images usually come from Astronomy Picture of the Day.
This is my desktop now:

This is the Sombrero Galaxy. It is approximately 30000000 light-years away from us.
Isn't it beautiful?
Darthy

Here is another I use very often:

It is the horse head region of our Galaxy. It's also very beautiful, isn't it?

Have just changed mine to this lovely shot of Jane and Edward from the BBC's recent period drama.

Yet another new screen from me (i usually change my wallpaper every day or so, but i only post the ones i think are really cool....)



Gray Fox, anyone? The original MGS is still awesome today....

BTW: Awesome space pics above

Great pics all! I especially like yours HM. And the "Horsehead region" pic of yours Darthy is beautiful!

My latest WALLPAPER.

I find this art form absolutely fascinating and can just sit and gaze at the detail of the eyes, and the skin tones.

Cheers

Just a normal desktop with my 2 lovely cats as wallpaper. Oh yea, below the screen is my little gifts from BC,
the spyware tools.

Seem to have a dead link above so here is the art I find fascinating

I love that YH! How serene and peaceful.

Here's my current desktop.
A picture I took at sunset, as a storm was coming in.

Desktop

*gasp* my desktop! a little old, but that will do lol

You shot that?!!!!!?!?!?! That's great getting lightning in there...I've spent a good many hours and perhaps hundreds (close to 1,000) pictures trying to capture lightning....never got a single one of them to turn out. I figure I had better stick to things that are easier to photograph...like my driveway or something

Great shot BTW!

Thanks, Steve.
It was a lucky shot.
Here's one of the cloud, before the strike, then I zoomed a little, and hit the shutter release.
Here's the image without the Taskbar:
Lightning Strike
I was shooting in Low Speed Burst mode (2 pics/sec, 4 pics max), and I got that one on the 3rd exposure.

Fantastic shots! I can't believe how lucky (not meant to be an insult) you are to capture that at only 2/fps! I've shot with film at 4 frames per second using a power winder and a 36 frame roll of film......and didn't get squat (hard to guess when lightning is going to strike and where!). That was expensive to develope (and the wife was rather ticked...buncha shots of black night time)....LOL!

The color is just incredible too! If a photo job opens up here, I'll let you know!

I'll bet she was.

A photo job sounds good.

You like color?
Here's a couple of my better, sunset shots:
Sunset_01
Sunset_02
Sunset_03
Sunset_04
Sunset_05
Sunset_06

TG all I have to say about your photos is ...WOW!

Yes, those are great shots! But, what happened to the bottoms of the photos? Did you forget to turn the flash on................................................. KIDDING! I get that all the time when I do a silohette shot, so I figured I'd share the "fun"! LOL! I've even been accused of lying when I told someone that it was a silohette shot!

Thanks Steve, and Scarlett.

I'd love to see yours. If you can post a link, that'd be awesome!

OMG! DemonSui! I SEE YOU HAVE D2 ON YOUR DESKTOP! I used to love that game. =] Are you well-known by any chance? I might know you if you post your name. =] My characters were Bats, Bun, and Molecule.

BTW, DOWN WITH CLAN TRE!

Um.. D2 isn't on it anymore something about having 0FPS can really get to ya. notable names are: DS-Xailin, Saiki, Kousotu, (I think..) and I used Spicy_Jesus for a while at the end.
I ran with, but was not a part of, the )bro( clan

Actual desktop now:

Couldn't resist this. Would like to take credit but this is one of the millions on WEBSHOTS.

"Give us a kiss then"

Beautifull!!

Something that I tossed together using Paint and IrfanView.

Nice job, TheTerrorist_75.

this is my first try lol ----------(second if you count edit)

First try? Well then great job!

And OMG what a car!

Central Park NYC... Hanson Cab

psp wallpaper (only pc-like object I have)
(hope that's ok to post, nothing showing really)

Thanks for the link, rowal5555.
Nice images.

welll at the mintue its looking pretty crap as im dosing off at school
Blank blue screen my computer, ie , mu documents and shared documents
Illl post my laptop background when im home

Came across this photo today...forgot I took it!
Had a mean electric storm late this past fall,and this was one of the strikes across the lake.

Nice shot, TMacK.
Too bad the trees got in the way.

the trees make it cooler. Can you modify that to 480x272? I wanna make that my psp wallpaper

Sorry DemonSui the next size in ImageShack is 480 x 640.
Glad you like it!

I re-sized it with InfranView.

I've spoke with TMack, and with her permission, I've resized and recropped her images (which I may end up putting in a sig for him), so that DemonSui can use them on his PSP.

NOTE! Credit for the photo goes to TMack, not me! I've just resized one, and cropped the other one down a bit (along with resizing it). Both images are now 480x272.

Original resized:


Original cropped and resized:



EDIT: DOH! It appears that Scarlett and I have posted at the same time with resized images......so it's true what they say....great minds do think alike!

Really like the way the cropped and resized one turned out stevealmighty!

Duh...guess I could have used Photobucket to resize it for DemonSui eh! Just don't use that imaging program!

thanks a bunch, makes a great wallpaper (both saved) Usually I'd use photoimpressions 4 to resize it, but with no pc I cannot do that anymore. I hate to bug people but appriciate it.

I use Ripway for my hosting

Not a problem, we're here to help!

Nothing fancy, but I like it that way

Thanks TMacK

I love using Hubble shots as my backgrounds, I snagged up a bunch of the most popular ones to my backgrounds folder just recently.
