Todays:

I blatently stole the use of conky from sky.

Also: my background image chages really often. I don't have it set to a scheduled change, but I have a script linked that I use to randomly pick from my collection 1600+ candidates. So don't diss the lack on contrast too loudly.

Here is my new desktop on my new PC

@Ace first time I've checked back here in a while but here is the full image as well

BTW thx Krom for sorting him with it as well

I would post mine, but I'd have to check whether the upload sites I'm subscribed to actually support it.

BTW all my desktops are game screens because my laptop's native resolution is somewhat awkward (1366x768), and it's really not worth trying to find something taken at that resolution.

If you have gimp, I have a handy little script that will scale any image down to the appropriate size and add black bars... it's spiffy.

Linky to my gimp script. If the bars around the image don't bother you, it will make any image look correct (centered and scaled down) on any resolution. Check it out!

I just made this one today:

This is the product of wanting a unique Android wallpaper. I just like to start with the high quality version (The screen shot is slightly blurry. The actual thing looks better.).

Looks cool, tho to me they look like they are kind of like Chia pets (all covered with green grass). Could be just me.

Here you go:

I guess depending how you look at it. Then again, I've been staring at the texture they're based on all day.

I haven't been able to get gimp to work lately, but I'll try again. Your script sounds like it would be cool enough that I'd want to at least take a look.

@Zetal: Cool!

Hmm very farmilliar picture, it reminds me of what I seen on TV back in 1987, which was back in Bunbury, Western Australia, the show called: Beyond 2000

They were talking about how cars might look like in the 21rst Century and that image you have Isaac is one of them showed as far as I can recall, it's very 80's style but with a futuristic effect added to it, I like it man

Here's one of my Wallpapers from my main system:

Unfortunately, the thing now restores a Heavy to full health, so the numbers are all outdated anyway.

Is there an HD version of this image?

It would be fun to try and reproduce this as a vector image, while keeping the hand painted look.

Before that it was this
