Spent the day going through about 30 different wallpapers, finally found this simple one I'm liking so it'll stick around for a bit hopefully.

Two screens- 22" widescreen and 19" normal ratio side by side. I shot the picture at TMS (i'm a reporter for Racingforthewin.com)

Left images are on a 20inch LCD, right images are on a 19inch CRT in a dual monitor setup. I really need to replace the CRT with an LCD.

Good luck finding a 5:4 LCD. You're gonna end up getting a widescreen for a main monitor and scooting the old LCD over. Not that I'm complaining or anything, gotta love the wider view in the cockpit 👍

Icarus, you should use this one for your next wallpaper. :p

I would, but sadly I only have one monitor...

Yea, all the 1600x1200 monitors are super expensive. I'm just going to have to go 24inch or more if I want to match the 1200 pixel vertical res of my current LCD.

HAHA! That's a good one.
 


Looks like something that would come built into the OS.

I got lucky. my 5:4 is 1280x1024; my 16:10 is 1680x1050. so they line up real well.

1920x1200 is indeed going to be large and pricey!
 
wasn't content on how my desktop was looking so i revised it and made it look more like a complete set =)

My current one, as GTP_Grenade, taken by me at the Waddington International Air Show.
 
Very Nice Photo Speedster!

I may change it at some point though, had that image for a week or so. Also I've found a really good rainmeter skin which allows twitter feeds to be displayed without taking up too much screen real estate so I may mess about with it and come up with something abit more minimal.
 
Love that Red Arrows shot, Speedster502!

Not massively pleased with it but felt like a change.

I've had a bit of a motorcycle fetish lately... particularly the Yamaha YZF-R1. :drool:
