I'm using this desktop background in honor of the 40th anniversary of landing on the moon (July 20, 1969). You can also see the Lunar Rover, which was built by GM. At that time I was only 7 weeks old ... :smilewide:

Click the full image, then when it comes up click the pic again to see it in it's full glory!

    After reading back thru this thread, seeing all the peeps who wandered off this board --some of them fully 9 years ago!-- I threw up a new background 'toast' to old conversations :

    Mine, though I have it so that it rotates through a series of pictures automagically.  It's a selection of Toronado, CT6, Continental, and slantback Seville.

    So work re-org'd groups and moved people around. Due to my seniority, I ended up getting a windows cube. Nice now, but I think summer is going to be hot. I also got a 2nd 30 inch monitor and as s

I'm a bit of an Egyptophile, I like anything that has to do with Ancient Egypt, in total I've spent about 10 months there throughout my life. This Desktop background is in tribute to one culture I love ...

Clean and simplistic, just the way I like it.

I love my RocketDock and my auto-hidden taskbar.

I change wallpapers as often as I change my underwear. Here are my desktops from the past two days.

After the reformat:

Also, you guys can't see it, but I now have a Windows 7 skin on XP rather than Slan2.0 like you see in the first screencap.

what you got against them? they're iconic :duck:

They belong on a dock so that you can actually look at your wallpaper. :P

I like that ...

Thanks, it's my first attempt at a custom theme on Windows 7, I already had the wallpaper, just changed the taskbar to match and made use of the new pinning feature to clear up all the icons. On Vista my desktop was cluttered, I like this clean look. ^_^

That's it. It's simply a wallpaper uncluttered. All icons on an auto-hidden RocketDock, the taskbar is auto-hidden ... it doesn't get any cleaner and simpler than this.

Enjoy your clutter. :neenerneener:

$7/night accomodations in Beijing = decent

$6/night accomodations in Nanjing = beautiful

$14/night accomodations in Hong Kong (Kowloon) = Total $h! Hole

HK is a totally different world economically from the rest of China. I wish we had known that when booking a place to stay.

I always change it around with one picture or another that I took. This on my screen right now.

laughing at all who don't have 2x 1080p. ;) lol

That doesn't even fill up the screen you n00b. :P

hahah.. does it have to? or are you jealous and making yourself feel better? :lol:

It's a personal thing...a pet peeve of mine when a desktop wallpaper doesn't fill the entire screen and leaves dead space, that and images that are smaller than the screen resolution and get stretched to fit, and get pixelated and distorted. :P

yes i hate distorted pics too. but i don't mind if it doesn't fill the entire screen. i just haven't found any/many 1080 wallpapers that i like. i also seem to like darker ones too.

I don't need it. I'm happy with my 32 inches of goodness, instead. Sure, it's only 1360x768, but its huge! :P

I've downgraded, and upgraded. No longer with 32 inches of goodness. But I'm up to 1980x1080 resolution.... and back to Hong Kong. It's just so pretty. :P

this is my background, but the larger size on wiki sized down to X x 1078 (close enough to 1080)

I do love artistic wheel pictures.

Actually upgraded to dual screen monitors. Would be nice if the were both the same size or at least widescreen, but the price was right (free) and the extra working space is awesome. So 1440x900 for the main screen and 1280x1024 for the secondary one. It also means I can actually see and enjoy my many lovely wallpapers cycle through.

Too stupid to do a screen-shot (plus embarrassed by how many files are sitting on the desktop), but here's my desktop pic:
