I think many of AH zealots has aerial pictures as a wallpaper. Will be interesting what your desktops are look like. If you will post pls. compress it to jpg and make it no bigger than 640x480.

Here is mine.

Fariz,

Where did you get that picture?  Is it computer generated or a painting?

Can everyone post links to the pictures they use, if available?  Always adding to my collection.

Thanks
