What's on your desktop?

[Haffner]

I'll join in...

But scholars are still divided on the issue, though.

It is strange, with the hands...hard to believe there wasn't something orchestrated there...

We'll never know Who had a hand in these hands.

Perfect!

Perfect!

Give the man a hand, folks. (left one of course)

Different wallpaper:

[MN Dave]

I took this one today and put it on my desktop. I like the colors. This is a web version so it may not look as good as the real deal.

According to WallpaperStock, it's Tyn Cathedral.  Wikipedia gives the official name of Church of Our Lady in front of Týn.

Thanks!

Nothing better on the desktop than a picture of your grandchildren.

The background is a picture of the north polar region of Enceladus, a natural satellite of Saturn, as captured by instruments on board the Cassini spacecraft.

The Diner is full of complete nonsense here and there, and I love the spirit of the boards that everyone participates in such carry-ons, even the 'grumps' if only to grump.
So here's another one.  What does your desktop look like?  What is it you see when the power up is over and your monitor is displaying your computr Headquarters?
Mine looks like this at the moment...I change it from time to time because it can get boring seeing the same thing every day.  Had this one running for a while to remind me of how small I am and many other bio-philisophical stuff.

    It looks different every day.

Common thread on a number of forums that I frequent - I communicate on 4 different computers and each looks somewhat differently - I am presently on my Ubuntu computer and using the standard offering - nothing spectacular but pleasant; as w/ any OS, Linux offers plenty of different options, but I've stuck to the basic choice -

That's an awesome background, mahler10th. Mine was a satellite photo of the "Earth at night", until earlier today, when I accidentally changed it.  Now it's the attached; a photo a former friend of mine took many, many years ago.

Not that this wasn't soaked in irony back when it happened, but time has only made it more delicious. Thanks, Wikipedia. That is, actually, a pretty good source for hi-res pictures for desktops and the like.

That was easy, I recently changed my wallpaper and it happens to be the same as in the desktop image I posted in this thread.

Space images are nice because they are usually dark and easy on the eyes (it's gotten so bad that I have to invert the screen colors on websites with white backgrounds  ).

Thart doesn't look like a photo though. It looks more like something Saul D. would "create" on his computer and then mistake for "great art".

[Wanderer]

Thart doesn't look like a photo though.

It may look surreal, but it is one of the most impressive photographs of Saturn the Cassini spacecraft has taken so far.

Combining the user friendliness of Mac with the familiarity of Windows 
I made a habit of working with the desktop during the day but cleaning it all up before shutting down. The windows start button auto hides itself whenever a program works in full screen, the drawer on the top is for accessing the frequently used programs. The bar at the bottom works like regular Mac.
