Yet another desktop wallpaper thread.
Yeah, I know we have these at least once a month.
Anyway, let me lead off with my WinXP desktop.
56k'ers beware, as the linked image is 890k.
It's a beautiful shot of the Chiang Kai-Shek Memorial arch in Taipei that I got off of a usenet wallpaper group.

"You say that it is your custom to burn widows. Very well. We also have a custom: when men burn a woman alive, we tie a rope around their necks and we hang them. Build your funeral pyre; beside it, my carpenters will build a gallows. You may follow your custom. And then we will follow ours."- General Sir Charles Napier

Ironic, I was just thinking about making one of these threads.
Any ways...This is mine. A little collage I put together of my favorite, unstoppable, masked killer.

I'm using that pic of the Milky Way that was posted here a while ago.
EDIT: BTW, I HATE YOU ALL, you with your high-res screens and big desktop pics. While I run a comfortable 1280x1024 at home, here at work I'm suffering on a 1024x768 midget-sized laptop LCD. Which really sucks when you actually try to do some programming work.

If anyone has some decent 1440x900 widescreen wallpapers, I'd appreciate posting them, as it's hard to find good ones for my laptop.

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."

A Government founded upon justice, and recognizing the equal rights of all men; claiming higher authority for existence, or sanction for its laws, that nature, reason, and the regularly ascertained will of the people; steadily refusing to put its sword and purse in the service of any religious creed or family is a standing offense to most of the Governments of the world, and to some narrow and bigoted people among ourselves.

Danke, it's the one I nabbed off of here. I modified it for wallpaper use. Fortunately the graininess inherent in the original makes blowing it up less of a chore.KhyronTheBackstabber wrote:Dalton, that pic kicks all sorts of ass.
