I thought it might be nice to have a thread where people can share their finds in this area - I have found any search tool most unhelpful if you are trying to track any of them down.

I'll start with one I have had on my desktop for quite a long time - for those that like astronomy I should say I am not sure how much longer that lnk is going to stay good though because I heard NASA is getting shut down :(

Anyway - don't let me drag thread OT with that, I'm just looking forward to seeing alternatives... (*THINKS* Should OSNN try hosting a /pod image? I wonder what our resources are like there? Probably a bit tricky, might get copyright exposure unless everyone sources from their own images....)

Back on topic - anyone care to post images they use for their active desktops or know of from sites they visit - any subject, the more varied the better.... (not sure if webcams really count though - although they could if suitable enough maybe and daily updated)
 
Bumping this thread - and adding a question, I am not sure what I have changed - but now I can go to my display properties desktop and set the web page I want to see there - I do not like them locked as I resize so I do not tick that. Then I go back to my desktop and pic is there - but later it disappears again! Why? Anyone have any ideas - is there another setting that's been reset?

I do use the PowerToys virtual desktops - but that was perfectly fine with this before and I think there's something I just forgot that I have to enable for Active desktop content - I'll read the help thread there if there's no answer here.

C'mon I feel sure some of you must be aware of pics that are rotated - or do you all like changing your own things once a month for the monthly sig and desktop threads?

Also Hi EP and people. I found this place again while looking through a oooollllllldddd backup. I have filled over 10TB and was looking at my collection of antiques. Any bids on the 500Mhz Win 95 fix?
Any of the SP crew still out there?

Impressed you have kept this alive this long EP! So many sites have come and gone. :(

Just did some crude math and I apparently joined almost 18yrs ago, how is that possible???
