*laughs* Right now I have a waterfall. I have a program that scrolls through my 1000 something backgrounds. My favorite LOTR background is the picture John Howe did of Gandalf walking down the path. You probably know the one. Though when the movie is out Wed, I will probably put up the official site's one of Frodo.

I love the Hildebrandt LOTR series! Did you see the recent special on, hm, it was either Bravo or Showcase; it was a JRRT special and featured Hildebrandt's work. I know of a website where you can go to view the whole series, but I'm new and don't know if you're allowed to post links here. Is it okay or not?

Hi Ebony!
I suppose you can try here or maybe this one. I don't know if it's what you're looking for but both sites are very good and very well known.
Have fun,
Mel

I am now currently alternating between a gorgeous pic of Arwen mourning Aragorn and an even more gorgeous pic of Denethor.

Right now I have one of Legolas but I have had one of Frodo and Sam, The Fellowship, and Frodo. I change the wall paper on our computer a lot. It's always LOTR themed of course.

Meela, where'd you find your Arwen mourning pic? I'd like to find something like that...

I currently have fan-art from the BD actually, although I have no idea who drew it, it's a pencil sketch of Merry.

I'm afraid the picture of Arwen mourning Aragorn is currently lost to me. I have it saved, but the url is unavailable, and I can't find the original site. If I find it or I can find a way of showing it, I will.

I have a serene wood scene as my background. One time I inserted a lamp post into it in the spirit of Narnia. Anyway, It's nothing Tolkien related.

Iarwain: Love the "spirit of Narnia" thing! Sounds like fun! I've honestly never found a pic of a lamp-post.... My current background is a collage of 25 Legolas pictures! I love it!

I have Legolas right now. But I change my desktop picture every week. I also have multiple screensavers of Lord of the Rings. I love the one that pictures different kind of Ents.

I've got Aragorn vs. the flaming blackriders up right know (at Weathertop). But I've got another 200 plus pictures and backrounds I can use. I've also got about 20 screesavers & 3 trailers (for now...). [img]smilies/cool.gif[/img]

I currently have a collage I made myself of Eowyn, which I'm rather pleased with. I've also had the gate of Moria, Frodo, Sam, and a drawing of the eye of Sauron with Black Speech written next to it for my desktop.

I constantly change the desktop, but right now I have a picture of the Oliphaunts. I've also had a picture of Frodo and the Nazgul when he's offering the Ring to him. And I made a collage of pictures from TTT, and I made a Hobbit collage. I forget what my screensaver is though...
