Yours is cool.  Mine's a cat.  Together we are a Cool Cat.

I'm using the standard XP 'Bliss'... the grassy hill with the blue sky behind it.  Uninspiring, but I don't care.

My work computer has a 280z with a fancy paint job:

This is mine, minus the icons. Of course it changes month to month during baseball season.

Mine changes a lot. This one has only been up since yesterday and will probably be gone tomorrow.

I'm still living in the past.  :p  But I thought this design was so pretty (found it on a fan art site), I had to *ahem* borrow it for myself.  :innocent:

A little something I found a while back.  Yes, that's an F-16, or an F-16XL to be precise.

Rockaway Beach, Pacifica, Ca.
This is a shot just off the parking lot of the Best Western Pacifica hotel. It's about 20 min south of San Francisco, but it may as well be 1000 miles away. You don't even notice "the city" from there. Very,very quiet and secluded, plus they have an Italian restaurant thats pretty darn good. It's our favorite "small" vacation spot during the week between Christmas and New Years. We usually go for 2-3 days.

This is my newest one. Took it today while working on my final project for my photography class. It's the west entrance to the old Denton County Courthouse. Originally color, but I converted it in photoshop. I love black and white.
