You do such pretty space scenes Aqua. I still sit and just stare at your space CSS for Subeta, and I've been using it for a good long while now :P

Hee, I have 2Moons installed, too. My main character is a summoner and I didn't intend for him to be my main exactly so his name is Prick. Because summoners are pricks! (I'm only level... uhh... somewhere in the 20s, I think.)

Yeah, I have it installed, but I haven't actually started playing yet. xD I came home from college last week and the topic of MMOs came up and my brother told me to download it.

But I've been busy, so I haven't touched it.

Looks odd with all the stuff in the middle because I have the default monitor with the taskbar on it on the right. I don't know why. A pic I took myself hence the dreadful composition :P

That feels so weird! My preference is definitely to have the default monitor/taskbar in the left one. (Also, my preference is to not have two different sized monitors... *wince*)

I never get to take part in these threads because my bg is always just a Windows default or a photo of my boyfriend.

I tend to prefer local scenery. My last two have featured this same mountain, called Chimneytop. Dad took this picture of what is my favorite view anywhere. Different places have their different beauties, but this one is just so "ahhh HOME!" to me (even though I don't actually live in this valley, just nearby and driving through there a lot). I never get tired of it and have to keep from gawking as I drive by that view. As with most landscape photos, this one doesn't do the view justice, by scope or season (winter). On a clear spring/summer day, it's "OMG pretty mountains and rolling green."

Right now, mine is a pic of a field right before a rainstorm that my friend took. I don't feel like opening photoshop to save it though, so here's my desktop that I put up whenever I have stuff to do.

Spoiler'd because it has a curse word. XD

Here's my three (yup, they're all on the same computer), all of which you can click on to see the full size version. They are, in order, this picture in OS X, a Sinfest comic in Windows XP, and this picture in Ubuntu. I appear to be collecting operating systems on this computer; it actually has another two with desktops, but those are just plain colours (one teal, one dark blue).

Mayhem, did you make that yourself? Because if you did I need to know what font that is. :o

I keep my desktop uninterestingly clean; my wallpaper currently rotates among a set of USS Kelvin fan renderings from The Light Works' Tobias Richter, of which my favorite is this one. (The rest can be found here, at various resolutions.) I like putting my huge resolution to good use. Image

I did, Foghawk! I don't remember what font it is, though. Whatever it is, I know I got it from dafont.com...

I LOVE the background on that last one, Jazzy.

I used that font on Spiderling's lookup, and I could normally tell you what it is, but... I forgot to transfer all my fonts when I upgraded my computer. I can get them off my old HD somehow, but that's a hassle. Augh. ;_;

Mayhem: I like yours! Good advice to all of us. :)

I don't have a unique picture, just a standard one that came with the Vista themes. It's my absolute favorite out of the bunch.

It looks really pretty with the bubble screen saver too.

Late to the party! I'm gonna stick mine under spoilers cause I have a bunch. Click on them for the full sized versions!

I had these two on my desktop and laptop for the longest time since I had just beaten the Kingdom Hearts Series:

And when this thread popped up I realized I was bored of those so I changed them to a new Zelda theme:

Finding myself needing to pick a desktop image after another reinstall, I decided to break the habit of a lifetime the last few years and do a non-person background.

Image

Full size, if you're interested.

I took the photo myself in April.
