Samwise: He looks like he's at least eight, so a little too old to be in preschool maybe, but how can he possibly be 22?

I made my own screensaver, it's that one that comes on your desktop called "my pictures screen saver"

Mine is, now, too--and though not all--the MAJORITY of the pics are either of the Hobbits or 'Lij and Sean.
*A bit OT:*
Recently, on my LOTR Yahoo! site, someone posted a link to BABY pictures of both 'Lij and Sean!!!! There are more baby pics of 'Lij, but both are SOOOOO DARLING !!! There was one of Sean captioned "Very Baby Sean" where he was maybe a few months old and asleep in his mother's arms. I about melted. I've got to put that in "My Pictures" so it will be part of the screen saver.... [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

I had the Hobbit hole with Gandalf coming to visit Bilbo...But my brother changed it to a picture of Mike Portnoy's drumset. [img]smilies/frown.gif[/img] I appreciated it after about a few days...

And about the Elijah Wood phenomenon discussed almost a year ago...my mom likes ELijah's face too!

But I saw a cool screen saver of the Fellowship in Moria, where one of the entrances was glowing with bold shafts of light. Another monitor had Frodo and Legolas' faces interchanging. In fact, all of the computers in the Literature department where I study has LotR screen savers!

Here's an update since I lasted posted here nearly a year ago:

My desktop is currently a collage of Eowyn I created and I now have 71 LOTR pictures in my file. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Meela · 07-14-2003, 10:10 AM

Before my hard drive collapsed I had a lovely picture of the Fellowship as my desktop picture. Unfortunately someone changed it to a pic of Vin Diesel. Fortunately Marton Csokas was also in the picture.

Oddwen · 07-14-2003, 11:50 AM

Currently, in OS X for a desktop picture I have Frodopeep from the LordofthePeeps website. I'll tell ya, Elijah Wood don't have nothin' on the actor they picked for their version. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] And for screensaver a bunch of random floaty pics, most of which are captioned screenshots from TTT and FotR trailers that I downloaded.
And in OS 9, desktop is the same bunch of pictures, while the screensaver is "Dark Rider" from the official site.

Aragost · 07-15-2003, 11:12 AM

Mine desktop is the Eye of Sauron. No black around it only red flames. I got it from

Sirithheruwen · 07-29-2003, 12:50 PM

I used to have a Nazgul descktop, but then we moved the fam comp downstairs, and my dad made me change it. It's just my luck to have anti-lotr parents. [img]smilies/frown.gif[/img] Oh well, I'm used to it. I have an uncle that loves LOTR, but he lives in another country. [img]smilies/frown.gif[/img] [img]smilies/frown.gif[/img] Back to the subject...no I just have a plain blue desktop. BORING!!!

Samwise · 07-29-2003, 09:56 PM

Plain blue.....? Aw, man...

This has more to do with my screen saver than my desktop, and while it's not REALLY LOTR, hey, it's an actor!

I have a "My Pictures" screen saver, and I recently added a family picture of the Astins, which includes their baby girl. It is TOO adorable! [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Alatáriël Lossëhelin · 07-29-2003, 11:17 PM

My wallpaper and screen savers (both on my home PC and work PC) are all LotR. I have probably in excess of 600-700 different photos of the different characters/actors/LotR artwork/parody photos, etc. I usually change out weekly: one week all Elijah/Frodo, next week all Orlando/Legolas/Will Turner, then Sean/Sam, Viggo/Aragorn, Sean/Boromir...well, you get the picture.

steve · 07-29-2003, 11:50 PM

I got 2 screen savers, one is a clip show of all the charachters from both movies. the second one is a joke i made, i turned lotr into the matrix useing pics from the movies

Raefindel · 08-01-2003, 11:05 AM

I got my screen saver from This site.

They have lots of cool ones.

Amarantha_Daisy · 08-05-2003, 07:37 PM

For a background I currently have a lovely picture of Galadriel. Of course, it won't be there long, I change my background every few hours ...I'm so sparatic...

I don't have a LotR screensaver, I just have a default Windows one. I couldn't find any LotR ones I liked, but you know what? I'm gonna go find one now... Or make a "My Pictures" one... [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]
