Just reverse your Gondolin wallpaper and re-use it

. You can have your reversed picture until you know what you're going to change to.

*BUMP*

I'm curious to know what other people have as their desktops, and how often you change it. I only used to change mine a few times a year until my friend told me she was baffled as to how I could stand to look at the same picture for so long.

Now I change it every couple of months or so.

Currently it's Van Gogh's Starry Night over the Rhone.

I have so many icons on my desktop that I can hardly see this pic anymore. Change it every year. Maybe.

Nerdanel · 08-25-2005, 06:46 AM

Most often pics I've taken, or pics of friends. I change it very often.. Sometimes every day.

sun-star · 08-25-2005, 08:59 AM

Currently, a picture of me and my team with Jeremy Paxman on University Challenge. Janny put it there...

Hehe, same here. Burried under the icons I have a pic of a Tasmanian beach. I've had it a very long time now.

Telcontar_Dunedain · 08-25-2005, 11:54 AM

I've got a picture of me and three friends in Swansea from a couple of weeks ago.

***Earniel*** · 08-25-2005, 02:30 PM

I use a lot of my own holiday photo's, usually nature photo's or pretty landscapes. I change every few months, when I feel like change.

My current one is a Corsican beach near the evening when almost everybody is left.

Spock · 08-25-2005, 02:47 PM

Currently Mickey Mouse underwater. It's due to be changed soon.

A painting of Fingolfin vs. Morgoth

The computer in my room (no internet) has a monthly Republic of Pemberley wallpaper--CE Brock illustration from an Austen book, a quote from an Austen letter, and a brief bulleted list of what's going on in her fiction that month Example: Fanny returns to Longborne. Wickham elopes with Lydia.

On this computer (my dad's), the background was a medium sized picture of John Paul II. That was there a few years. The picture for the past year or so is an old family photo: http://us.f3.yahoofs.com/users/42535...Y7hDDBDTcSa5QG . If you have trouble seeing it, well, umm...Only some people ever seem to get my links right. Sorry!

A picture of Marvin from the HHGTTG movie. Before it was a yellow cow on blue back, painted by Andy Warhol.

Mercutio · 08-25-2005, 03:30 PM

The guys in the photo?

It's very funny this thread (hence that picture) was revived, coinciding with the hunting thread.

cee2lee2 · 08-25-2005, 11:55 PM

I change mine pretty often - sometimes every 2 or 3 days. Right now I have a picture of baby penguins from March of the Penguins.

trolls' bane · 09-22-2005, 11:35 PM

Right now, I have a picture of guess what planet?

cee2lee2 · 09-22-2005, 11:48 PM

Could it be................................Mars!!!!!
