This went around a couple of years ago and now that there are a lot more bloggers, I think it would be fun to do it again. I also think it tells a little bit about us *g*
What am I talking about??
I'm curious to see what others have as their wallpaper. Now that I have two computers, I have two different wallpapers. And since I live by myself and don't have to worry about a significant other seeing it every day, I can have whatever I want - heh heh heh.
Here is the wallpaper on my desktop computer. I don't think it will shock anyone.
And here is the one I have on my new laptop - courtesy of Nath
It's easy to do - just do a Print Screen of your desktop and paste it into Paint and save as a JPeg file. So - anyone game?

OK, call me weird but I'm more curious about what programs or other things people have on their desktop. It's very revealing. :)
As far as a desktop pic goes, I have a pic of the DH and I, which I will never post publicly. But it's my favorite.
Ooh I love the first one, Kristie! *drooling*
I have two computers. One of my laptop's has a pretty sunset over the water. The one I'm on now's desktop is actually pretty boring. I have blue wallpaper. Huh. I think I need an upgrade, lol.
Here's the link so you can view this laptop's Wallpaper.
My boring Wallpaper, lol
Ohhhh! Pretty pictures :)
Hmmmm. My desktop on the home computer is a picture of the Earth from space. I never change it as doing anything on my home computer is a mission in itself :) The desktop on my work computer changes every couple of days, and usually a book cover, although currently it is a lightning storm!
Like orannia, I have a picture of Earth from space. It came with the computer and I love it. My cursor is the little space shuttle. I have as few icons as possible on my desktop because I don't want to cover up the picture.
OK, I'll play! :-)
Here's my desktop.
I LOVE my wallpaper, which is art from the Japanese version of Nightlife by Rob Thurman.
Sadly, my desktop hasnt changed in 4 yrs. It's "Case Study #13, Image 5" by Steven Klein.

I'll play; here's the url for mine: http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3318/3634320745_754eb24cca.jpg
Great idea Kristie! Here's mine ~ http://lesliespsyche.blogspot.com/2009/06/wallpaper.html
Dan Dos Santos and Luis Royo - love these artists. :)
I haven't done this in a very long time! Here's mine!
I couldn't get a photo image of my desktop, but on my blog I shared some of my wallpaper/screensavers.
http://moonlighttotwilightblog.blogspot.com/2009/06/its-hump-day.html
MsMoonlight: See what I mean? Who would have thought you were a classic car fan?
Sarah: That way you won't forget about seeing the movie will you? *g*
Leslie: Wowzers! Those are beautiful!!
I would have a hard time choosing which one to use!
Heidenkind: Oh - that's gorgeous. What vibrant colours those tulips are. Almost makes me want to become a gardiner to grow flowers that pretty.
Seton: What a dramatic scene!! Is that from Mr. & Mrs. Smith? It looks like Brangelina in the picture.
Renee: I love that one - the colours, the night sky, the city lights in the background
Phyl: *g* I'm a bad one for saving things on my desktop. When I start covering John Thornton's face, it's time to start organizing.
Orannia: I love those space shots and I've them before too. My work computer alas, is very very boring - just the company logo.
Barbara: You could indeed use and update - lol. Part of the fun is trying to decide which one to use. Since I'm hooked on SYTYCD, I figured I'd use my favourite pic from the Canadian show as my wallpaper - well - and 'cause I think it's hawt, hawt, hawt and fun to turn on the computer. And I've had that one on my desktop computer for a while now. Don't really want to change it.
Leah: LOL - I did a lot of cleaning up and deleting before I did a print screen of my desktop. I save just about everything there. As for my new one - I haven't had time to clutter it up yet.
I got mine up :)
http://natuschan.blogspot.com/2009/06/wallpaper-meme.html
and LOL, YOU chose that picture!! I just put it up, which you could have done as well :D
erm... nuthin'?
This is mine:

I don't watch the Simpsons, though the children did when they were younger, but we live near the Giants Causeway, so I thought it was fun when I saw it.
I checked whether the link worked, and it didn't seem to (I fail at links), so word description:
It's a screen shot of Marge, Bart & Lisa (Liza?) down at the bottom of the Causeway reading the notice there.
Funnily enough, when you asked, I couldn't remember what it was: had to go and look. Time for a change.
I used to have a storm swept sea threatening a lighthouse (the cover for "Fire at Midnight") on my laptop, but I've recently changed to the cover for "Stolen Promise," which features artist Arturo Delgado's rendering of a gypsy necklace called a galbe, which is an important element in the story.
I know Kristie is a huge fan of Judy James' Broken Wing, and my new cover was done by the same artist.
Let me know what you think:

We share a common subject matter!
Here's mine

Now that I know how to take a snapshot of my desktop, I can play too!
I love that bottom one. Both of them are so you, Kristie!
Hi Kristie
You have good taste!!
Hey Mary! *evil grin* I think so too! I love them both.
Amy: I love that one too! I was so totally gone for them as a couple on SYTYCD Canada that it's great to have it whenever I turn on the computer.
Marg: *g* oh yes we do - we do indeed!
Lisa: What a great cover!!! I Adore the cover of your first book and I love the cover of this one. It's also great getting a 'first glimpse' too!
Marianne: ROTFL!!! The link worked for me and it was a hoot!! And if you ever do get a chance - you should watch The Simpsons. It's bizarre and may take watching it a few times - but once one gets into the rhythm, it's quite funny.
AL: LOL - Nothing??? Well you will have to let your imagination take you away - kind of like Calgon.
Nath: *laughing* I guess I didn't really make things clear did I? I did indeed pick out what I wanted and you loaded it on for me. And I see where you take another one of your loves and make it wallpaper.
lol Love the backgrounds...my background is actually a picture from off my blog if you wanna see it...a hot guy and girl...both topless! *blush* I know...BAD BAD!
Here's my desktop....

Of course I need to be an true exhibitionist with the wallpaper on my computer and you can find it here:

Love the topic Kristie!! And some are utter delicious...I'm lurking some more!
Kristie,
I meant to ask if you are doing this every week.
E.H>
What Fun!! I love to see what people have on their desktops.
Mine is the Carpathian Mountains from Christine Feehan's website.
Here it is.
