I am really posting this topic so I can steal everyone's cool looking desktop backgrounds.   8)


I am reading through the LOTR books again so with that in mind this is on my desktop this week.

Regardless of how good a PC game may be it will always have its detractors and no matter how bad a PC game may be it will always have its fans.

Deep roots are not reached by the frost.

I've got about 15 or so that rotate on a regular basis (woohoo stupid Windows 7 features!). Various 40K images, Robot Chicken, Aqua Teen Hunger Force, a Penguins logo, a few sports images, and some game related stuff.

I'm so grown up.  ;D

Currently I'm using an image I snapped on my deck last fall.  I'll provide a cropped snapshot, and a link to the original (rather large) image.

That's a great shot, LB. How close did you manage to get to take that?

I was standing out on the deck when it just landed on the table. It seemed to want to rest for a moment, so I pulled out my phone. It's an HTC with some super camera. I was probably four feet away - but the camera's snapshot was so large and clear that I can zoom in by just cropping the image. I managed to get three shots; that one is probably the best. The full image is on the link. Download it and crop it to your satisfaction.

Thanks dude - feel free to steal it - it came from the Combat Camera PR service from the Canadian Forces.
