By that i mean, what picture is the wallpaper for the main screen on your computer? Right now its the homestar runner cast picture, but im probably going to replace that with something more "Christmassy" soon.

The flag of Bhutan.
Right now I've got the default XP green hill picture. I've had it like that for awhile, I just haven't seen something that screams "Put me on your Desktop!"
Although I recently saw a picture of my 10 month old niece that's on my brother's desktop. It's a zoom of her face and hair during her bath. She's got soapy hair and they brushed her hair so it stood up, has to be the cutest thing I've seen in awhile. I might just have to get that on my desktop..http://forums.toonzone.net/images/smilies/biggrin.gif

A Jack Sparrow themed wallpaper is what I've got right now. The main image is his grand entrance, with some smaller images on the bottom. There's another one I had earlier that was also a Sparrow wallpaper. A pic of him when he was in jail with his quote about the Black Pearl.

It alternates between Gadget, Aku & a drawing board scene from LOTR involving Gandalf & the Moth over Isengard ... right now the moth is winning :D

Jack Sparrow/Johnny Depp fan eh? I got some friends you'd probably get along with.
Anyway my wallpaper is of Santa in his sleigh, made it myself. I'm not sure what I'll put up Friday though.

Howdy,
I've got the cover of JLA/Avengers #3 (http://www.newsarama.com/Marvel/AVENGERS_JLA_3.jpg) on my work PC. I managed to find a 1024x768 verison of it somewhere, but can't find it now. Makes finding icons on the desktop near impossible, but it's just so cooooool.
Home machines have some blue wavy thing on the desktop and a purple waterdroppy thing on the laptop. Both are default MacOS X desktops.

A Gandalf wallpaper I got from the official LOTR website.
At work and at home, I have Webshots Desktop (http://www.webshots.com) installed on my computer. You can download or create "collections" (groups) of pictures. At work I have of winter and holiday themed pictures - the current wallpaper on the desktop is called "Winter Sunset, Alaska."
The program at home is set to rotate wallpapers once in a while, and I'm not sure what's currently on the desktop. I'm at work right now.

Well, as this isn't *technically* my computer, it still has the original Blue background that just says "Compaq Presario Internet PC" I've been meaning to change it to LotR, but I've been lazy, well that or I keep forgetting...

I mentioned what it was in February 2002, and it has not changed since then. It might if my father ever follows through with getting a new computer, though. It is thick, vertical lines of three alternating colors. It is called pinstripe on the list of background options in Windows98.

As of this writing, for wallpaper, I have The Powerpuff Girls riding on a sled. I thought it was appropriate for Christmas and the winter season.

I actually got a new background. It's one of a Space Station and it's alot better then my other baseball one I mentioned before. I think it's pretty cool anyway.

Mine is the the exterier of a space station in space.
On the comp I'm using now, it's a picture that a friend drew for me.
On the other one, it's a wallpaper of Dr. Stewart from 'F-Zero GX'. I'll probably change it in February or somethin'. =/

Right now I've got a picture of Bugs Bunny, Sylvester, and Taz carrying a Christmas tree and decorations. I'd have more anime related stuff up, but I'm not the only person who uses this computer, so I kinda have to keep the background to something everyone in the family would like.
Yours looks awesome, Mog! :D

I have an iMac, so I have a desktop picture. The desktop picture itself is the U.B.C.S. (Umbrella Biohazard Countermeasure Service) logo and on top of that is a green wallpaper of Carlos Oliveira, Corporal of the U.B.C.S. :D

SABOTAGE!---- funny you should ask.
Normally, I have a portrait drawn for me by a friend of mine of ME in the Batman suit.... swinging around, and the rogues gallery around me.
BUT.... um.....err..... my computer's been soiled!
It now has a giant picture of my sister whipping me off, with a bubble saying, "I knew you'd leave this on when you left sometime.... "
I always told her she'd never be able to crack my personal password, when she'd jokingly threat to mess wiht my settings.
The day of reckoning has come.... but, she still hasnt' cracked it.
I just was silly enough to leave this on.
Grrrrr........

Just as magnificent in a 1024 x 768 pixel resolution.
I have this great spider-man pic and I have 7 others so I'll never run out!
I've noticed that I seem to like darker wallpapers, preferrably with a bluish tone. I don't know why. :confused:

An open stargate from Stargate SG1 that I got from Scifi.com. It used to be the "I Want to Believe" poster that's in the X-Files, but I changed it about 2 months ago.
Did anyone else have an American flag after September 11th?
