Desktop Backgrounds

[schaarschmidt]

I ran across three great pictures that I thought would make awesome desktop backgrounds for my computer.

I am presently using this one. X-ray of a group of raised hands. Despite the med sized pic, it stretches real well for the full screen affect.

Just switched from this one, which I had centered with a black background. "Boom stick" from the movie Evil Dead.

I will save this one for Halloween.

Here is my current desktop background pic. Pretty boring, but every time I find something new, I end up going back to this after a couple weeks!! This is a 1024x768 version of it. If you'd like any other version up to 3360x1050 let me know!!

Love the Bat pic - Why do people insist on associating bats with Halloween? My daughter and son both have several stuffed bats - my daughter some time sleeps with hers. Bats are lovely creatures.

I have been using this pic I took of Mt Rainer.

The little Weather Channel desktop applet that you can install has a link to a gazillion weather pics. I snag a lightning pic every month or so for my background.

From our trip to Cambodia last year. Sky was horrible so I had to cheat and photoshop in a sky from another photo.

I have been using this pic I took of Mt Rainer.

I remember that view real well. That is the view of the mountain as the airplane gains height from the airport. Last time I saw it the sun was rising and all the cloudes had a great orange/red cast. By the time I got my camera out to snap a comple of shots the plane had turned and I lost the view of the mountain.

I also took a roll of shots while climbing to the summit of Mt. Rainer. I used Fuji film and Walmart developed the negatives incorrectly (used Kodak processing) and everything turned out with a bluish/green tint. Because they screwed up the negatives it wasn't as simple as having them redo the prints. Talk about being a little upset. When the screw up your memories is they will give you a new roll of film. Oh boy!

Now I shoot everything with a digital camera. Much lighter and I can blow through about 300 shots at high resolution before draining my battery and/or filling my memory card.

All I remember is Reed saying dang, I wish I had a video right now.

Danno, those fingers scare me.

[NickG]

This is what we have on the labtop and pc.... and for the record, those fingers are disturbing.

[RedFSR]

Here is a sunset I snapped at Wailea Beach in Maui this past Friday. Sorry about the watermark but I'm going to print and frame a large size of this. I've been burned before so now I put watermarks on the photos I post online.

[Goins]

Danno that is nasty looking. Told you to quite playing with fire you would get hurt. Guess you will listen next time.:wink:

[Accumbens]

Are those lamprey fingers?

Be happy you haven't cracked 3 helemts so far like I have. My head hurts thinking about the tree, that boulder, and that stupid little stump that sent me flying over the bars.

And I thought I didn't know how to MTB!
Just razzing you Alex, be careful out there alone.
Make sure you take a cell ph with you in case you get into trouble.

It's not me, it is those small stumps right out of a turn that you don't see until you are right on top of them. They do all sorts of scary things to you.

And I do carry a cell phone when I go out riding, but I don't like being annoyed by people when I ride, so it is turned off.
