What image do you use for a desktop background?

[xskarma]

Right now I have my background set to randomly show any of about 35 New England Patriots related images (for the NFL playoffs, haven't switched out yet after our Superbowl win).

Normally though, basically for the past 8 years I think, I have my background set to switch every 60 seconds randomly picking from a folder of 58 different pics with the general theme of "black/dark background with multicoloured accent/objects/graphics"

I suspect I'll always keep these around till they are no longer fit graphics wise to be used.

I have a mixed bag of Fallout, Elder Scrolls, and World of Warcraft images with a few from Legend of Dragoon, Zelda, and some Hatsune Miku images. I generally just grab what I think looks cool. Some samples:
Dart from Legend of Dragoon
Legend of Zelda logo
Hatsune Miku

I use an animated wallpaper of Dark Souls knight sitting at a fire and Arthas just standing, the wind blowing in his hair.

My bg swaps photos from a folder of about 2000+ photos, so it's never one for very long.

Oh this is fucking great and I want it as a shirt.

Oh, mine is a space image from Apod on my desktop and my work comp is a Frank Frazetta Death Dealer.

I set my background to slideshow and the folder it points to is actually on the cloud so I can update it for all of my Windows PCs from any device if I find something I like.

Right now I've got 120 pictures ranging from Landscapes, Space, some anime (more specifically Gundam) various video game wallpapers, etc.

Is that... an Anaconda from Elite Dangerous?

Sweet game. I got bored of it though because there weren't enough real players to pirate. And I do mean pirate, not grief.

It's a Reddit thing.

I believe the guy at the front is supposed to be Gabe Newell, the president of Valve.

It's from an anime I really like. I prefer dark backgrounds because with bright ones my eyes get tired, and hurt when I start up my PC in the morning :P

I have a wallpaper folder with several hundred images in it that cycle every 3 mins

1. Yes. Picture not taken by me though.

2. If you want to find people to steal stuff from, hang around systems where trade community goals are happening. Though there aren't any of those this week.

Or hang out in a system that is part of one of the popular rare trading circuits, like Witchhaul, Orrere, or Rajukru.

3. You might have a gander at the new stuff coming in 2.3. They were just showing it off in some livestreams this week. The beta should start next week, though they haven't specified a day yet.

Part 1
Part 2




Might be of interest for you.
