I spend a fair amount of time at work on the computer, so I like to switch backgrounds often and keep things fresh. I would like to know what your favourite screen backgrounds are and why.
I have included two of mine: one is a picture of the sunset on a lake where I like to go fishing. I have often seen the sun disappear over the horizon as I stretched my fishing outing to the max, looking for nice pike, bass and walleye. The other is '50s Oldsmobile Rocket 88 sitting in a junkyard. In my late teens/early twenties I restored a '67 Firebird, which meant occasional trips to the junkyard, and seeing jems like this waiting for some TLC always gave me ideas....
OMFG i swear to god today i was thinking about doing a thread on this topic, great minds think alike but looks like you have beaten me to it, il post mine up in a bit, playing poker at the mo the first one is a flash moving bum side to side , and second one is just a random cat taking a drinking of water, well then again just looking into the water lol but looks cool

hoodi, if I'm not mistaking this is on their desktop, could be wrong, but I didn't know you could change your table background to your own desire. Correct me if I'm wrong mahdrof/doz01!
I know FT has a few various and yeah, I like the animated beach scene and the vegas one as you mentioned.
As for desktop backgrounds these are a couple off the computer, but I seen a lot of these sunsets while living in Arizona. This is about 78 miles from Vegas
------------ Very nice doz, but my wife wouldn't let me have that! To be honest my wife's is better looking then that. Of course she's 10 years younger then me, but about to trade in on a new modle. lol Have a great day and Good Luck to All!

Green, you live in a beautiful state! I visited Arizona in April 2001 while on training and loved it! Me and another buddy from work were staying in Tempe, and after the course day was over we went hiking up Camelback and Old Squaw, just amazing. On the weekend we went up to the Grand Canyon which was also fantastic, before we had to fly home. Big thumbs up for where you live!
I should rename the post to read "desktop backgrounds", that's what I meant!

Yeah mahdrof, I lived there for 4 years and that was 3 years ago. I now live in freezing weather Indiana. You are so right though! Arizona is a beautiful state with lots of exciting things to adventure off to. Thatis, if you like hiking, rock climbing and that sort of stuff. Loved 4 wheelers also. I still have 5 properties out there 78 miles outside of Vegas. All vacant land, but nice! Good Luck to All!
