    Being a child of the 1980s I'm a bit of a nut for anything to come from that decade. It stands to reason then that I am a Nintendo nut also. Here is my current desktop wallpaper - a single, solitary Super Mario Bros mushroom.

    I'm afraid it's no craze with me Barb, it's a lifelong hobby. I still play the oldies to this day and own several retro gaming systems. My Xmas present to myself was an Atari 2600 :)

    Apologies for derailing the topic slightly.

    I took this picture at the fishing lodge my husband and I own - this is the one I was going to show you guys a couple months ago - finally read the directions and did it.

    I think there is one in my attic. Used to be.
    Was Pac man in that bunch Frank?

    It was one of my favorites.


    Jungseed,

    That is a very nice sunset photo....Hope you use it ..Or at least put it on your wall.........

    Lets see more of your favorites......This is better than looking at magazines........More intelligent also..

    Hiya B,

    I have a file with fotos of some of my garden flowers and a little software program that I can set to change them any way that I want. So I have it set to change the pics randomly every time the compi is started-up.
    The changer program draws from that file of fotos.

    So I do not really have just one favourite, each time I start-up I am surprised which one is showing.
