I was looking at the photos posted in the seabreeze gallery and found this one which looks great as a desktop background.

Go to the Naish site.
You can download hi quality backgrounds from there of the new kites.
Great shots.

right click on your favorite graphs and select as "active desktop item, u will need to use IE for this not firefox but once u have done it its fine. right click on the graph during the day if ya want a refresh and it will do it for you when u switch on

Thanks for the tip on the active desktop item kitecrazzzy.

Sorry Galvanize, call me stupid, but I just don't get the RRD thing

I haven't got bored with this one for about 9 months now.

It is me though, slightly narcissistic. Not really the best quality either, I think chicky-babe went a bit overboard on the digital zoom.

I've had this one as my desktop for a while now - It just makes you want to be there...

My desk top has changed about a dozen times now since starting this thread and is plastered with wind graphs. Thanks Guys.

I like the one of Vlassof Cay Cairns. I was in Cairns a few weeks ago and I am now disapointed that I didn't know about Vlassof Cay. It looks awesome.

I also like GreenPats Pic. It leaves a lot of space for icons to spread around the screen without getting lost.

The Mag pics and the tadshop ones look good too, but I like the ones that "make you feel like you want to be there" as Sunseeker put it. Is that a sign of getting old maybe??

I have 19" monitors at work and home, I have problems finding good pics that don't pixellate at hi res. I've collected a few good ones, I'll email them home next week and find a pic hosting site that allows big images, then put a link up here so people can share...

ps I've found the naish ones to be too low res..
