What picture are you using as your desk top? Can you show me, if not can you describe it? How often do you change it? I asked this question two years ago and it was interesting to see what everyone was using. I change mine about once a month. Right now I have a photo of my grandson when he was 6 weeks old.

Oh dear, I hate to say this but I am still using a background with Fall of the year scenery.. That is so lazy of me.. I am going to change it right now.. I skipped cahnging it for Christmas and for New Years, that is really lazy on my part.. I am changing it now to a Springtime picture so I can have hope through the rest of the winter..

I changed it to a beach picture.. As soon as my husband came through the room, he noticed it and told me, "Hey, I like that", so I guess I did well..

I believe I got it from here: http://www.animewallpapers.com/wallpapers/ Look under Serial Experiments Lain. I say I believe, because I just looked through there and while I some pictures like it, I don't see that particular one. There's sopme good wallpapers at that site if you like Anime.

I Photo-shopped a picture of my son and my grandson(both at age 12 mos.) and that is what I have on my desktop (actually laptop) right now. I change it when ever the spirit moves me LOL! I sometimes use Webshots and then the photos change daily. So far I haven't been given the option to add a picture so I guess I will not be able to. Happy MyLotting...

Yes they look very much alike. My son is 38 so it is nice having this pic of both of them together at 12 mos. old. I wish I could post the pic. How do I add an image on my comment?

I just learned that we now have to have over 500 posts before we can add pics to comments. So, I just added the photo to my profile pictures on my home page. Check it out near the bottom of my page and let me know what you think. My son is on the right and my grandson is on the left.

I have a picture of my granddaughter on my monitor. My daughter, granddaughter and grandson went to Memphis, TN for a soccer tournament for my grandson. We had to come back by Oxford, Mississippi, for her daughter to take pictures in the town and on the Ole'Miss Campus. My granddaughter had broken her foot in a soccer game and was on crutches. We had to take her to an old bookstore there in that quaint town. We found the section upstairs about the man she was researching. She is standing there in front of the books with one of his in her hand, with a crutch under her arm. I love it!

I hope your granddaughter's foot better now, how old was she in the photo? The picture sounds really cute.

The picture was taken the last few weeks of soccer playing in her Junior year of High School. She had just turned 17 in March of that year. She's in her first year of college now.

Ohh I just took a pic of my desktop recently... coincidence lol My desktop is pretty messy, everyone tells me I should clear it up a bit, but there are just too many things I use daily and I need to reach them easily:) As for the pic... well I love Harry Potter, I always put a photo that calms me down, this has a certain atmosphere that relaxes me. Here's the pic: http://i488.photobucket.com/albums/rr243/Seranya/Mydesktop.jpg?t=1232409265

Hi OURDEW! My current Desk Top is pictured below... It is my son enjoying time with his Nana (My Hubby's Mother) This photo was just taken on Thursday by my husband! Our desk top is changed quite often by my husband...At least two or three times a week! He likes to display his photography...Our screen saver is a slide show of my Hubby's photos also and that never changes! Prior to this one we actually had a photo of a double cheese burger on our desk top...It made me hungry! He can be so annoying I have no say in our desk top at all except when I prevailed for the month of December....Even then we had a photo of a Christmas tree that was taken by my Hubby only the screen saver was a lovely snowy scene with a lit up house and tree that I down loaded for the month but he couldn't wait to get the slide show running again! Men and their toys! Ah Well, I must admit, he is good at what he does! ~Heavens~

It sounds like your husband has fun with it and you get some great photos. Our screen saver is also a slide show of our photos. I love photography too. What an adorable look on your son's face, he is so cute!

I love that little fawn, smaller than the horse's head. Besides, I generally have my desktop covered with open programs.

xi and mom's photo - xi and mom's photo, we wear the same and we look alike.
I seldom will change the desktop wallpaper. I use a photo of my son and myself. We wear the same clothes and I like this photo very much because we are alike to each other:) I will attach this photo here for your reference.

It might be an easy question, but I actually had to minimize my windows to see what it was as I couldn't really remember. It's the default Packard Bell background that come with my computer when I got it (about 10 months or so ago I think). Guess I don't really pay much attention to my desktop.

The photo I am using now is a photo of a cruise ship that my wife and I sailed out on some time ago that turned out to be a really good picture. I also use a picture of a sunset from a cruise ship in Hawai'i and a couple other personal ones. I also like abstract ones that I find on the internet or other things that interest me but I am not into the celeb ones. Great question Thanks Zelo

My son and his girlfriend - This is a picture of my son and his girlfriend. Aren't they so cute!
What a cutie your grandson is!I change mine whenever I feel like I need a new picture to look at. Right now I have a picture of my son and his girlfriend (see below). Before that, I had a picture of a California sunset over the beach. Sometimes I get bored and just make it the defaul desktop that came with my computer.

I have Webshots installed on my computer and I change my desktop often. The picture that I have now is of two exotic birds looking like twin birds flying shoulder to shoulder across a forest, it looks like the rain forest to me. Their wings are spread wide open like they are gliding through the air and they are red, blue and and some green, they look more like parakeets to me.

Mine is some abstract digital art my partner made. It looks like it has a lot of texture. He has made a lot of pictures in the past, but has not done so in a few years. I picked it as my desktop picture probably a year or so ago. I chose this particular one because it is dark, and does not keep the screen so bright.

I have the pictures of my four grandchildren at my desktop. That is enough to give me encouragement every day to do good and make my life a part of them. If it weren't for the children we would not have any reason to live into eternity anyway. Crocket.
