Right now on my laptop I have the following beach scene. I have a pic from my layout on my desktop at home. BTW this is wallpaper, I never see my screensavers as I have it set for 1 hour which never happens.
My wallpaper is my furkids, my little pirate, Mr. Beck (the one eyed guy) and his little lass Bonnie.[attachment=12601]

This is my desktop and has been for a couple of years. It is by an illustrator called Samuel Michlap - he also has some very nice train/loco images which Google will find for you. I came across his work by accident whilst trawling about on the internet. He works for Dreamworks - some more of his work is at <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://theartofanimation.tumblr.com/post/5058524158/samuel-michlap">http://theartofanimation.tumblr.com/pos ... el-michlap</a><!-- m --> click on Archive and most of the pictures , if clicked on, will enlarge, and then, in turn will open others

I have many photos from the west coast rail forum that are used for screen saver and wallpaper. They change every minute and most of them have LA basin industry and yards in the background.

This http://www.californiatrains.com/locations.html is a great source for that kind of photos.
CR GP38-2,a CR cabin and several cars sitting in a yard.
This is the one I have most of the time since it's the scratchbuilt that I'm the most proud of. It's a 1:220 replica of the Chapel of the Holy Cross in Sedona, Arizona and is detailed inside as well.

Right now I've got a Thanksgiving theme w/turkey, and in a few days I'll probably switch to this on of the same chapel for the Christmas season:

This is on my PC. Its one of my favorite pictures, since its what I'm all about! An Amtrak train (powered by GG1s, of course) overtakes a Conrail electric freight at Morrisville, PA May 11,1979

This is the one on my Laptop, which pretty much covers the other half of what I'm all about. NJ DOT #4879, one of the last GG1s to operate, has just departed the Northeast Corridor, bound for South Amboy where it will hand its train off to a pair of E8s for the rest of the trip to Bay Head.

Meanwhile, the Arrow III MUs have just made the reverse trip, leaving South Amboy on its way to New York Penn Station.

The location is Union Interlocking, Rahway NJ, June 1, 1981

Usually railroad related in some way, occasionally something from worth1000.com
Mine is an O. Winston Link Photo Smile Smile
Mine is the V&T combine #18 http://www.nsrm-friends.org/photo/no18_5-31-50.jpg, one of my long time project on my workbench.
However I have the hope that I can finish my model in next time.
This is what's on my desktop right now.

Here are a couple that I've used recently. Both are from my Backyard & Southern Railway Co.

My wallpaper generally falls into two categories, either a nature scene or a railroad theme.
