    Default IDEA - Desktop wallpaper for your computer

    Hi all,

    I am back after a long hiatus enforced due to settling in to a different life (and insane jealousy caused from living in an apartment without sheddly type activities.

    Anyway, after such a long break, I needed a good post - I hope that this is it...

    I propose that someone develop a nice set of downloadable wallpapers for your computer, preferably of some nice pieces of work done by members here - or even simply cool pictures like 's big lathe.

    Anyway, I am thinking of something with Woodwork Forums somewhere on the pic.

    Now, of course this kind of idea isn't new and the thing that prompted me to suggest it here was swordforum.com - see here: http://swordforum.com/wallpapers/

    The Viking Sword wallpaper is awesome, but from time to time I get a hankering to change wallpapers. Now for something made from wood .

    Any suggestions?

    Anyone with enough skills to do this well willing to take this on? Pretty please?
    Otherwise I may be forced to do it (badly) myself...

    Thanks for the welcome back guys.

    I like your examples Major, that was exactly the kind of thing I was thinking...

    Of course, Iain's example wasn't bad either - but I am glad I didn't try that at work...

    That came about when someone wanted a picture of our national health food, and I made a typo, I mean, how would you associate a name like that with a product like that.....

    I certainly am... I'd be into them in a shot if I had half a chance.
