				Share your desktop wallpaper!
			 
			
		
		
		This is a random thread for anyone who wants to share the wallpaper they use on their desktop. 
LET THE MASS OF "WALLA-PAPPAH" BEGIN! Also, if you want to say a few things about your wallpaper, what it is, where you got it, etc., feel free to do so.
 
I'll start:
 
I actually made my own wallpaper, and it uses silhouettes. I was inspired by Kara Walker, since I made an entire website about her (as my final project for MMEDIA 1B03) along with my friend.

 Strangely enough, this one is somewhat inspiring. I like it!

 I have Ubuntu on my old PC. But nothing is really compatible with Ubuntu, so I don't use it anymore. But they do have nice wallpapers, I'll admit that.

On a related note, 4 months in and still the cleanest desktop I've ever had. Woot.

		 No special reason for either of these, just like the way they look and the colors.

In my experience with Ubuntu, ANTHING is possible as long as you have the patience and the willingness to learn (so much learning...).
 
Currently I'm dual-booting with Win 7 because it's just easier for school stuff... 
For next year tho, I'm on my way to having Ubuntu with Win XP and Win 7 on virtual machines (take that viruses!!)...consider   doing that because Ubuntu is much better in terms of security. I love VMware
