OT: What's your desktop backgroud?

Don't need a fancy picture. I like the minimalist approach. Performance rather than Frills. Besides, when im sat infront of the PC, Im using an app, surfin the web or even buzzin the odd barn or two so i don't even see the desktop. Don't believe in flooding it with shortcuts either.

I did however find some of the posted images to be first-class.

Tim,

I see you do flights to the moon in Orbiter. Just curious how that is done. I guess you would speed up the flight instead of running it for 2 days.

I tried the Moon run and the Mars run a couple of times. Always wrecked my telemetry and missed the planets.. Couldnt slow down and change course.. arrghh...

That's 'Pete' Bill, lol
I use the Saturn V add-on by 'Apollo Project', can go to
the moon now after a lot of practice runs, (and using the tutorials)but still can't get return trajectory right with all those 'noun-verb' commands to work out

ttfn

I had never heard of the CMC Leopard before seeing the photo above and just did some Googling on her. What a sleek and amazing aircraft, sure wish someone would make it for FSX!

Hey Piglet! :jump:
 
This is something i've been toying with for a while now.

It is incredibly hard to get hold of any decent images / 3-views. I only happen to have some stuff because my dad worked on the project, even then all I have acess to is a folder of 40 odd photos and a non-published 3 -view

:focus:
My excuse for the image is that I spend enough time in GMax for it to count as my desktop.
 
This is my desktop since a few years ;-) Hope you like it...

Mike Stone did one for FS 2002... Tom Clayton might have a copy kicking around somewhere.

I have it on FS9 already....

though thanks for the offer. The problem I have is that as a FS8 model its not the same as the other aircraft I have, however as freeware I can't complain and so I've set to work attempting my own version.

and I've been working on a proper panel for it.

And a proper paint scheme, ahh that soothing white an blue...
