I got it from Wallbase. Here's the link to the picture.
Thanks!

Hm, other good stuff at that site too... might have to sign up there, I'm always looking for new sources of nice wallpaper. :)
Not just art. That was a depiction of the Tektite undersea habitat and laboratory, from about 40 years ago.

I think that illustration may have appeared in National Geographic magazine at around that time.

Wow! Seconded; nice job, M'Sharak!

New desktop! Been in a sci-fi writing mode lately, so I switched to something more appropriate for that kind of setting:



Yes, I do move my desktop icons around every time I change the picture so that they get in the way of the image as little as possible. I am that OCD about it. :D

I move my icons around to in an ocd manner. I just get rid of them.

I have keep my desktop empty--sometimes completely.

There's an app for that - it's called iconoid, let's you choose where on the screen the icons are (top, bottom, left or right) and hides them completely. I've been using it for years
