I couldnt find out if there was a similar thread about this. If so, sorryyy!! :) But guys. I have such an amazing desktop picture:

I am such a sucker for the Ringed Planet. Always have been. In a way, the shape has something soothening / mysterious (a blend of those two, but i bet there's no word for that). It might just be me being crazy.
Probably. :D

often i have something like this on my desktop - i love a good space scene, especially artists' conceptions of what the sky would look like on other planets/satellites in our solar system, those are so brilliant and evocative for a space geek like me.

right now, though, no image, just blue :D

That's an awesome desktop picture! I love those abstract planet renderings. I once had this calendar as a kid that had nothing but those for each month. Wish I still had it, I'd hang them all over my walls.

Always had this weird fascination for the northern lights, planning to visit them sometime in my life soon, just like the real proper cafe del mar in ibiza. 2 Things on my to do list for sure =]
