Having some issues putting it up in full size, seeing as Photobucket then wants me to pay them to store it -.- But here's a link to the ones I have on rotate at the moment. Let me know if you want any more of those and I can e-mail them to you. http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v192/Emher/Desktops/
Unsurprisingly, mine is Janeway themed.
It's a great display. And man, that must've been some time ago; USAF decommissioned its F-111s shortly after Desert Storm as I recall. It's sad to see them go as it's a unique aircraft in the modern era and well suited to Australia's near-unique requirements, which of course is why the RAAF has held on to them for as long as it has. Of all aircraft in or nearing production worldwide, the most direct replacement for the F-111 - the Su-34 Fullback - is still somewhat short-legged by comparison and, being Russian, is (unfortunately) out of the question in any case.
It would have been the mid 80s. I got the chance to sit in a few aircraft at that particular airshow (Not the F111 unfortunately). I think only one of them is still in service with the manufacturers nation
(F104 Starfighter, English Electric Lightning, Bae Hawk along with a flight in an old Dakota at that show).
As for my current wallpaper, it's down to a book I'm reading at the moment.

Actually, I was referring to the bevy of haphazard folders laying about the desktop that are making the telltales of my OCD much more pronounced.
I like the wallpaper, though.
^ Your OCD? Mine almost made me have a stroke.

When you're at a friend's house, do you straighten their ALWAYS crooked rugs, too?
Is that GNOME or xfce? I honestly can't tell--though I think it's GNOME.

Yes. And then I straighten the pictures, then the lamps, then the knick-knacks... then I finish loading the dishwasher and clean out the fridge and take out the trash...

The desk my laptop sits on at the moment is similarly in disarray
take a copy of that wallpaper if you like
Gnome, Ubuntu 8.10
Heh. Isn't Ubunutu up to like version 100.47 or something? I think you need to upgrade.

Something like that, and it's the LTS to boot. I need to arrange a meet-up with the friend that introduced me to it so he can walk me through the process.

Considering your current desktop, the upgrade will be a shock
