Title: Looking for a desktop background
Post by: giantmike on September 29, 2003, 07:49:41 PM
I have been looking for a good desktop background of lightning. I have found various ones which you can see the landscape and clouds and stuff, but that just doesn't do it.

I have found something close here: http://www.macdesktops.com/index.phtml?Pic...e=2785&res=TRUE

However, I would like more forks.

Anybody know where I can find such an image (I know I had one on my G3 a long time ago).

Thanks for any help.

Did you ever find one Mike?

I've one that I enhanced with PS somewhere.
Have no idea where though. <gr>
Could be on a zip,cdr,another drive or another 'puter even.!.
Now that I'm thinking about it, it was on the iMac I had and I might of tossed it when I cleared the drive and cut the iMac loose.

That is a beautiful picture, bus alas, not what I'm looking for. I haven't found exactly what I wanted, probably because I'm beeing too picky wink.gif

I guess I'll have to grab that image the next time I'm home, and post it here fore anyone who may want it.
