obake Posted April 16, 2020 I thought a fun distraction would be to post our desktop backgrounds, and the reason we have them. Everyone should know by now that I love my sexy ladies. My current background is a compilation of two pictures, credit to Necro-Kitten at Deviantart for the Egyptian cat. The other one is credit to Delta___001 on Ifunny. My backgrounds are usually kickbutt women or pictures of Temples of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. What about yours? 7 Share this post Link to post
mrthejoshmon Posted April 16, 2020 (edited) My wallpaper just rotates through screenshots I have taken for the purpose of being a screenshot wallpaper, here are the two that rotated by just now: https://imgur.com/BoU6OXp https://imgur.com/F6eOvYH 2 Share this post Link to post
TwinBeast Posted April 16, 2020 After some windows update screwed up the desktop backgrounds from changing every 30 minutes and fitting them to the screen, I went back to my green text on black theme, which features solid black background. The second screen is on too, although looks like it's off when nothing on it. Used to have some fantasy/scifi stuff in the backgrounds earlier. 2 Share this post Link to post

That is exactly how I set my computer at work up, solid black background and green text (went so far as to edit all the boxes too). I recommend switching the system font to Consolas, fits the aesthetic very nicely. 1 Share this post Link to post
cambreaKer Posted April 16, 2020 My desktop background is artwork for my game Kulfonom, i think it looks pretty good. The left side has nothing since that space is used for my desktop icons 1 Share this post Link to post

And for a little variety, I have pink text on black in textpad. 1 Share this post Link to post
Doom_Dude Posted April 16, 2020 (edited) I have 5000+ wallpapers in a folder and I use John's Background Switcher to swap out my wallpaper every couple of hours. Edited April 17, 2020 by Doom_Dude 1 Share this post Link to post
Senor500 Posted April 16, 2020 Ace Attorney is the series that got me into visual novels and reading in general, played it first when very young and the characters really are part of me now. I couldn't run the new PC re-release, but, at the very least, I could use the wallpaper that came with it. 3 Share this post Link to post

Spie812 Posted April 16, 2020 (edited) This was a screenshot that I took in Space Engine. It just seems to be perfectly suited to me as it has remained my sole wallpaper going on several years now. 2023-09-29: Still is ;) Edited September 29, 2023 by Spie812 11 Share this post Link to post

BoxY Posted April 16, 2020 It's some wall of jpeg corruption I found that I messed up even more with bitmap editing and then made dark enough to be easy on the eyes. Kinda reminds me of geological strata. 7 Share this post Link to post
Jello Posted April 16, 2020 (edited) This has been my background for about six years now. Zdzislaw Beskinksi was an amazing, untrained artist, and he made some of the most surreal, unnerving, and well done painting I've ever seen. How he did it, I really don't know. But he said that he would have horrible dreams, and wake up and painted what he saw. And judging by his paintings, I believe him. 13 Share this post Link to post

[Vitz!] Posted April 16, 2020 Been using this one for months. I highly dislike having icons on the desktop. I made a simple crappy edit on photoshop, but I guess it works well enough for a wallpaper... I should change it, though... It always makes me want to eat burgers and other junk food, lmao. 6 Share this post Link to post
