What do you have a picture of? Do you rotate pictures (like some of you rotate your avatars ;-) )?

Mine is of Western Lake. I usually change them about every 3-4 months, but if I really like a particular picture, it stays forever! Merman has these incredible sand dunes on his, with a big full rising moon in the background. It's really cool.

Andrew Wyeth, Below Dover. We recently went to the showing going on in Atlanta and I really liked that painting so I came back and made a search for the print and made it my wallpaper for awhile. I tend to change between the pets, beach and art prints

Mine is the crew on the back of the pontoon boat over Memorial Day weekend. We all went out to Crab Island. It's been the same for a while!

I had a photo of our place at WC under construction as my desktop for like 3 years until SJ helped me learn how to change it. I now have a SoWal sunset at Seagrove pic he took when Mermaid and Merman were down last time!!!

It's one of SJ's many beautiful shots. I have on my computer at work too. People walk by, stop and say, "Where IS that??! Wow." It's really beautiful when it fills up the whole screen.

I remember being there. It was truly beautiful.

Yep that is the same one on my puter at work. Gets lots of responses all favorable. At home I have my girls. SJ pictures are the favorite to have at work. I can check out anytime I want and see a simpler place.

I used to have another one of yours, SJ. The one of the sandbar with a couple of people sitting and their umbrella, and also their baby's play-pen. I loved looking at that. The water looked like silver sequins. It was (still is) so beautiful! (I just sorta wanted that play pen to be "erased" out of an otherwise, perfect photo! Ha!)

One of the many beautiful pictures that SJ has taken of Grayton. I usually rotate pictures that he and kurt take on a weekly basis. They are so gorgeous!!!!

Right now, I have a black lab under a christmas tree..change it with the seasons usually, and at other times, I use some of SJ and Kurt's photos-always beautiful and calming.

I rotate pics. VERY often have ones you fine folks post on here. Recently had my daughter's snowflake drawing from Katie's link.

But the last couple days have this lucky Kingfisher who is where I'd like to be!

Mine is MacGregor the dog. Although we need to change that now that my entire day is consumed with dogs- the food schedule, going outside, the cleanup process of coming back in (muddy feet, faces, stuff stuck to hair), the sleep schedule, the very energetic inside wrestling.....I think I need an 'UN-DOG' desktop.

Bdarg is using the dogs dressed up as Mary, Joseph and Jesus (Ocean Lover's pic?)

Our screensaver is my favorite- bdarg has it set up so that a new picture comes up every 5 seconds- pulls from all the pics uploaded from the camera. Sometimes it pulls me in and I stop and scroll through a few vacation pics, or kids as babies, etc.

We have that too. It's good for remembering the year. You never know what will pop up.

I used to rotate quite a bit--not as much as I compulsively rotate avatars, mind you--but I love this pic of my kids so much that I've left it on my desktop for months!

The ghost of Thanksgiving past has installed this as my new desktop. Seems like when someone looks at that gorgeous picture of Western Lake, she forgets what's lurking downstairs in the kitchen. This is a good (??) reminder. :eek: :floor: :eek:

I thought you'd all get a kick of my Christmas mermaid. :rolling: It's not me, though. I found her floating in the cyber seas and couldn't resist hauling her in. Merman and I were laughing our heads off when we spotted her. Isn't she a cutie? :lolabove:
