Is that Monica Belucci?

Here is my current wallpaper.

Mine's changed a few times recently, here's a few wallpapers I like.

Infact, pretty much my entire photobucket Warlords album has or will be used.

All right! I'm not the only one that doubles the taskbar.
I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro's great stumbling block in his stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen's Counciler or the Ku Klux Klanner, but the white moderate, who is more devoted to "order" than to justice; who constantly says: "I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I cannot agree with your methods of direct action"; who paternalistically believes he can set the timetable for another man's freedom; who lives by a mythical concept of time and who constantly advises the Negro to wait for a "more convenient season."

My desktop since around 1997:

Tiger

When I get a new comp in the next month or so, I'm thinking of switching either to this (suitably reeworked from the actual original) or something (surprise) dragon-themed. The tiger cub is cute, but I've looked at it for almost ten years and I'm starting to get ready for some change.

Long ago in a distant land, I, Aku, the shape-shifting Master of Darkness, unleashed an unspeakable evil,
but a foolish samurai warrior wielding a magic sword stepped forth to oppose me. Before the final blow
was struck, I tore open a portal in time and flung him into the future, where my evil is law! Now, the fool
seeks to return to the past, and undo the future that is Aku...

I think it looks nice, but why is there a planet there? Is it a ringworld we're seeing? Or a halo around a planet that is unseen?

I have 3 toolbars, the menu bar (bottom), the quick launch (right) and my computer (left). The icons are 2 .txt docs, both for lyrics in different bands. There's an assyrian winged disc jpg on the desktop too, for when I get one as a tattoo, with an inverted pentagram in the circle. The other icons are bog standard win 98 ones that xp normally doesn't give you.

I changed mine for something other than Stargate-related. The result is naturally relaxing.
