Just wondered what kind of wallpapers you folks have on your PC... standard Windows stuff, or one you've downloaded? Also, do you have a screensaver; if so, what? This is just me being nosy..... nothing commercial or anything like that!!!

Meant to put in..... my screen wallpaper is from a site called digitalblasphemy.com, and is called "Iris". Screensaver is Windows "My pictures screensaver", which has various pix of my daughter, Celticangel (the ones you DIDN'T get to see!!!) my dog and several other wee bits & bobs... about 12 in all, and all special to me, one way or another!! :)

Wallpaper used to be a rather nice pic of an ex naked but as that ended it is now just a pic of Homer Simpson ~ Doh.

Don't know if I even have a screensaver set never leave the monitor on enough without something going on to need it.

I use webshots to upload my own family pictures!

But for holidays..I go with a whole desktop theme!

For example...today VD ..I have a Heart Desktop Theme going on!

And On Steak and BJ day ;)...I will ......Ummm...Ohhhhh......well you get the picture! ;) :D :D

I usually alternate my wallpaper...The last 2-3 weeks, it's been Kirk Penney (my YUMMY favorite UW bball player) and before that, it was Michael Vartan (Vaughn from Alias).

I use the standard issue clouds for wallpaper...have some holiday specific screensavers we change to if we're in the mood, I find some SS's hog the memory too much to use

I used to have the "Bad Dog" screen saver........but I hate to be reminded that my puter is idle so I eliminated the screen saver all together.

I alternate my wallpaper when I get in a mood. Had huge daffodils for a long time...then went to a scene of my backyard covered in snow (till the snow started coming and coming and coming) and now I have a pic I took this last summer of hubby and his dad stacking firewood! Oh....the grass is green in that pic.......OMG! I want Spring to get here fast!

I have NO screen saver....I know it's a sin. But my desk top is this sexy moon water scene all done in sexy blue hues. Helps me feel tranquil when I am wanting to throw the freakin system out the damn window:p

I've downlaoded pictures from WebShots and use the screensaver and background options they provide. Plus, the basic package is FREE which is a nice price. :D

Really enjoy all the pictures you can get from them. Gives nice variety.
