Desktop #1 is a pic of my girlfriend and I (yes, I'm a sap, stfu.)
Desktop #2 is a Steampunk rendering of Han Solo and Chewbacca that I got off of Eric Poulton's blog (http://ericpoulton.blogspot.com/search/label/steampunk%20star%20wars) as part of a "Steampunk Star Wars" series he did. (Steampunk Darth Vader was on Desktop #1 until I replaced it with the pic of Amanda and I. :P)

I would do one background per monitor, but I don't know how to do it except for "locking" them to the desktop and then my icons look funny...That, and I'm cheap and don't want to buy special software.

I rotate through AlaskaLoneWolfs photos of Alaska. To remind me to find a way to go visit someday.

Things like these:

The "Please Stand By" splash screen from Fallout 3... I have a 1920x1080 version that I use, that is basically just a screencap that I took when the game was loading. ;)

It's an image I GIMPed of a group of use leaflet dropping for a kids club I run in costume. I made individual ones for each of the leaders here:

Mine is just a photo I took during a concert I was on a month ago. I want my desktop to be as simple as possible, so it's not very interesting.

An old drawing that I never quite finished, but it's a nice thing to be the first thing you see when you log in. My monitor is 1680x1050

Thank you :). Yes, you'll find some stuff at cucumberboy.deviantart.com, but my more recent stuff (anything from the last 8 months) isn't online. And the TRS backgrounds of course. Glad you liked it.

Man, a lot of you guys have large amounts of icons on your desktop. I really really hate that (plus it slows down windows on start up). Here's my current and very boring desktop:

I have them turned off, which looks more clean and it does make the computer run faster.

On XP it might make a difference but on Windows Vista/7 it doesn't matter. It matters even less with a quad core CPU.

I currently have a picture I took myself last month from the Eastern side of Glacier National Park. It's a picture from on top of one of the falls areas shooting up towards the mountains..

Great trip and a stunningly beautiful place..

I usually just go to interfacelift.com for my wallpapers though there are rare occasions where I find them elsewhere. And no icons for me.
