Yes, it's a mod. But not the Pirate expansion download (I wish I had any of them. And I wish I had the extended version of Wich's Wake, but I hear it's not further in the story. One day, one day...). As I said, it's from the main module of the mod I am talking about. "Penultima Rerolled", a parody mod (but also with a great plot). The desktop I posted of the group is one of the Bonus Artworks you get when completing it. It's by Stefan "Twoflower" Gagne.

Lacey, why don't you stretch your desktop background?

OT: Does anyone have any idea how to get rid of these awful standard windows XP themes (blue, silver, olive green)? I don't feel like getting WindowBlinds or similar software, but perhaps there's a way to get more third-party themes or something?

I refuse to stretch a 4:3 aspect desktop image to a 16:10 resolution. It looks ugly .

I suppose I could resize the image to stretch it while maintaining the aspect ratio, but I'm lazy.

I use Alienwares Themes, though you dont need to have an alienware PC to use them (Mine is the Darkstar suite )

Ah, didn't notice it was a different aspect ratio

And those don't require WindowBlinds? Still, I think they're a bit extreme for my taste (my desktop is so soothing as is ). Thanks though Unfortunately, googling "free windows xp themes" turns up a million and one useless websites

This awesome wallpaper came with the recently released Special Edition DVD Version of TLJ (along with two other wallpapers).

I guess that your desktop goes to show how criminally overused black icons are...

Actually they are not black Icons. They are transparent. I made them myself, with a useful little tool called "iconArt" (which happens to be free. Legally. Get it from Lissa Explains it All).

Really? Uhoh....I better get something more interesting soon or I'll be deemed boring....

Aha! Heres a custom made Ultima VII desktop. I used a pattern I found pre-made on the internet, and added the serpent.

I've had this wallpaper for about a week:

I know I almost always have Lost wallpapers on my computer, but I decided to change for at least a day or two. I couldn't resist this great wallpaper. If friends come over I'll just have to change it.
