i have different places from ME on my desktop . My favourite has to be different views of lorien (from the film) . Every now and again i might put some illustrations from the books onto my desktop for a change.

Well, I have Daffy Duck on my desktop (see avatar) but I had the Argonath up for a while. So that's Isildur and Elendil, right?

Actually, Diamond, You're half right; they are Isildur and Anarion.
I have a collage of characters as my desktop.

My desktop is a picture I'm sure many have seen....... it is the Mordor Online picture. It's funny, when the ol' computer finally starts up, the first thing you see is the Eye of Sauron! [img]smilies/eek.gif[/img]

WOW! I've probably got the same one - the eye of Sauron both on desktop and screensaver.
Wanted to change the screensaver to 'the Ring on the bottom of Anduin', but forgot where I saw it. [img]smilies/rolleyes.gif[/img] Anyone seen it? Help!

I have the TTT Frodo wallpaper (with a small Frodo and Sam being lead by Gollum at the bottom) from the official site... and that is accompanied by many different LOTR icons.
A little overboard? Nah! |

Its Legolas [img]smilies/mad.gif[/img], a revolving series of Orlando Bloom takes, endlessly parading across my computer screen, filling my sleeping with nightmares, and my waking with dread. One blue eyed, blond haired, vision after another, without respite and unmerciful.
No, it wasn't my idea… 90% of marriage is sacrifice.

I have the Two Towers desktop with a big, gorgeous Aragorn, and Legolas, Gandalf, and Gimli. It's blue and says "The Two Towers: The Journey Continues December 18th." I also have it on my computer at work. Plus the TTT screensaver with, you guessed it- Aragorn. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]
I love this topic--screenasavers-- what geeks we all are! (I say that lovingly!) [img]smilies/eek.gif[/img]

I used to have a pic of Smaug on my desktop, but my brother changed it. I then had a collage of all the movie posters, but my brother changed it. I then had a picture of Frodo [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] but my brother changed it.( [img]smilies/mad.gif[/img] [img]smilies/mad.gif[/img] ) Then my mum, tired of our constand bickering, locked the desktop on a plain teal backround [img]smilies/mad.gif[/img] [img]smilies/mad.gif[/img] [img]smilies/mad.gif[/img] !!!!!

heres the depths of my sickness:
built a computer. named it "Orodruin." set up different user settings for different themes: for example, there is a nazgul theme with a nazgul desktop, middle-earthish cursors, part of track 5 for startup, almost everything black w/red text. there is a default "Mt.doom" theme with art from one of the mogul lotr artists, same cursors, and such. unfortunately it isn't connected to the internet-i'm doing this from my parents dell computer. it's all black and cool, my name for it is "barad-dur." one final note-i admire sauron's constructs-his fortresses and forges-not the maia himself. now crown me lord-high-hobbit king of the computer geeks.

My golly, Demloth!
anyhoo, I used to have the painting of Bag End on my wall paper...but since the comp's in my bor's room, he put Mike Portnoy's drum set instead (interesting set). Maybe after I get to see the movie, I'll get my bro to put up a pic of Faramir or Legolas. After all, I used to own his room [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

I have a beautiful hand-drawn picture of Frodo looking out over the Anduin valley with Mordor in the background. I can't remember who the artist is, but it's really an excellect pic.
Right now I am using the Rivendell screen saver from the official website, but have several others loaded from there that I switch around every so often.
