"It is not the literal past that rules us, save, possibly, in a biological sense. It is images of the past. Each new historical era mirrors itself in the picture and active mythology of its past or of a past borrowed from other cultures. It tests its sense of identity, of regress or new achievement against that past.”

Only in my dreams. Never heard of it.

Desktop background - Stormwind City's Mage District at night. I quite like this shot I took.
Phone wallpaper - View out to Lake Ontario from the Toronto Islands. Obviously it's much smaller on the phone; it displays across the 5 home panels as you scroll, and the right 1/3rd is missed off. Taken on holiday, turned out to be perfect for my phone because the horizontal lines & tree position complement my home screen widget/icon layout.

I was using one of the Windows 7 themes called Ireland, but now I've switched to one called Eerie Autumn.

Had this one at home, but it caught some disapproving attention, the explanation (that it's looking the way it does because it's from a drug-induced hallucination) wasn't much helpful, so now I have it at work. At home I have a fractal I made in Apophysis.
How is it better, to post as pics or as links? Links take less space and perhaps load faster where it matters, with pics you don't have to click on each one.

Mine's my son's wedding pic on my old laptop. And my daughter's wedding pic on my recently acquired laptop.

Shocking, I know.
I just finished Next Gen and am about 1/4 the way through DS9 and I totally understand the urge to do this now. I think I'm going to find a data in sherlock costume and add it to my wallpaper stash...
