What's on Your Desktop?

Maybe it's just me, but I'm crazy OCD about my desktop wallpaper. It can't be so loud that it distracts from my icons, and yet I can't seem to settle for black. For a few years there, I had a subscription to Digital Blasphemy, and got some truly fantastic wallpaper, but it was so pretty I couldn't get much work done.

Last week I had a PlasticMind logo up that I had created in haste.

The week before that I had Watching The Heavens Fall by kol stretched across both monitors. (That's got to be one of my all-time favorites.)

Two days ago, I replaced it with wallpaper from the new Transformers movie site. (Autobots on one monitor, Decepticons on the other.) Hey, don't laugh; when I was a kid, I had a dream that I was older and I bought the entire set of Transformers. Dinobots, Insecticons--you name it, it was mine. Needless to say, you know where I'll be on July 3rd at midnight!

Oops. Where was I? Sorry, that's what happens when I get talking about Transformers. (More than meets the eye!)

Oh right, what's on your desktop?

I'm surprised you have me filed under redhook. I never actually resided there, I lived in Elizaville.
You could safely refile me into a bussiness directory now that i'm a customer.
Unless you make one for colleagues.

Kudos on the plasticmind banner.
let me know where I can get one.

on my macbook, it's a screengrab of my son in one of his baseball games, from when i was building an iMovie for his team.

on my work Mac, It's a pretty blue stripey thing from socwall.com i think. i can never keep my wallpaper too long - that's why i couldn't ever get a tatoo!
