Wow! *stares at all the pretties!*

Jyro, was the eye color tweaked to match the background?

Lioness, beautiful and vibrant! That would wake me up.

Diso, very cute. It reminds me of a photo my Dad sent of a family of young bobcats that came out of the hills to hake a nap on his patio lounge chair.

cab, you have probably changed it again by now... but i really like the one called canarium. I am always partial to interesting texture.

RMMC, what a gorgeous sky. Those are the kind I get lost in... just start staring and my thoughts drift off....

I need a new desktop!

Jyro: great pic! I tigers!!!


Lioness: Oooo! Pretty!


I have Diso to thank for finding this for me:



There's just one problem. I'm spending entirely too much time just staring at it and not getting other things done. Its strange but it's more distracting than Sammy in the towel.

RMMC, it does have a hypnotic quality.

My new one is a composite of images I found in image searches.

lilbird, do you use Spaces? I've never taken the time to figure out how to make it beneficial for me.

Jyro, I did look at it when I was introduced to the feature, but like you I didn't see the benefit and have never spent any time to work with it.

I prefer hide or bring aps to the front with the Dock. I usually have multiple aps open at once and often visible at the same time. I like to spread things out when I'm working and work on multiple things simultaneously.

Too much so as it turns out.

I spent too much time staring at Sam and not enough working on my compy. So I changed my desktop to this:




I love a good storm.

I love storms, too, RMMC. One year I had a calendar of storms - loved it.

Nice tornado shot with the lightening as well.

Borrowed this from lilbird for my work computer:


My monitor is an old CRT and no matter what I do with the brightness and contrast settings, it's really dark, so I had to lighten the image up a lot to get it to display correctly, which might be why it now looks horrible for everyone else.

Thanks. It wasn't what I'd planned to put up, but that was just too grand to pass by.

Plus, when I had cable, I was a Weather Channel groupie.

RMMC, That will definitely keep you alert. *glances side to side... lowers voice...* I too know the seductive call of the weather channel...

Diso, it does look light, but I don't think it looks bad. It is nice to see the image again.

You must, because I originally wrote 'Weather Channel Slut' and then decided it needed different wording.

It's also a different image, even though I got it from lilbird's link. Look at the alien balloon on the upper right. In mine, it's in front of the ballon that makes me think of M&Ms, but in lilbird's it's behind it.
