I make some of the wallpapers that I use on my computer, and once in a while somebody asks me about one. So here's a dozen or so from different fandoms. Most of them are between 150-250k, but some are bigger due to the vagaries of photoshop.



Buffy:
Bite Me--Buffy and Angel with swords, plus the best quote describing their relationship EVAH. "Let me break it down for you, Fred..."

Bunnies!--Anya with her bit of the 'I've Got a Theory' song. What's with all the carrots?!

Calvin & Hobbes:
Calvin and Hobbes--several heart-warming (or pants-stealing) moments found in the panels of the best comic of all time.

Fifth Element
The Diva--why are there no diva wallpapers? she fucking rocks!

Wolf's Rain
Alone Wolf--Kiba looking fierce in front of his wolf's eyes. I love the way the text can read either 'a lone wolf' or 'alone wolf'.

Roswell
Gorecki--Max and Liz holding up the convenience store in various shades of purple and blue. The text is from the song 'Gorecki' by Lamb, which i adore.

Fullmetal Alchemist
Redeemed--Ed and Al looking depressed, with an overlay of them trying to bring their mom back *sniffle*

Yami no Matsuei
Have Your Cake--Hisoka is irked by Tsuzuki's adoration of his dessert, but he gets a little back.

Tattoo--The shot from the theme song of Hisoka laying in Tsuzuki's lap with his curse tattoo uncovered.

Matsuei Moon--A screenshot of the very end of the series, with Hisoke and Tsuzuki staring at the moon amidst the cherry blossoms.

X-men
Gone--a shot of Rogue and Gambit from Xtreme X-men, with some lyrics from Switchfoot's Gone in the background. Very purple.

Gravitation
A Boy and His Guitar--Hiro with his guitar looking laidback and sexy. From a scan of the back of one of the mangas.

Yuki Window--Yuki looking out his window during the closing credits. The color isn't brilliant, but is Yuki's top jean button undone? why yes it is. Mmmmmm.

MWPP
Mangled Puppies--A drawing I doodled after the Glitterverse RPed a run-in of Padfoot and Moony with Wolfnip. "Woah, I'm all furry and shit..."

Yu-Gi-Oh!
Yamito Hikari--The text reads 'Dark and Light'. I love the look Yugi is giving you, and the little point towards Yami.

Ipod commercials
The Ponytail Ipod Girl--Is this a fandom? I love the blue headbanger girl during the 'Walkie Talkie Man' ipod commercial. Here's a cool collage of screenshots of her.

Rainbow Brite
Ravebow--I bought this t-shirt from hot topic and scanned it for this wallpaper. I love the way Blue Boy is macking it with both Shy Violet and Patty O Green.

Have i mentioned that I have 423 wallpapers? right.

The ponytail spinning thing? I TOTALLY knew how to do that when I was a little kid, because my cousin picked it up from one of her school friends and I picked it up from her, and I could probably do it if I put my ponytail higher and wasn't wearing a necklace.

Also, the Yuki wallpaper isn't working. I have woe. (I also have need of a new super-pose icon. With a chick instead of a dude. Hm.)

there, should be fixed now. It didn't like that file for whatever reason, but a save-as fixed it. mm, yuuuuuuki. I spent a bit last night trolling ffnet for some decent Yuki/Shuichi. and you thought HP had bad mpreg...

I can so do that with my hair. It's very dangerous.

Yay! *clings to Yuki*

I have a method for avoiding the crappy fanfic--it's far from foolproof, but it eliminates a lot of crap--wherein I limit the fics to just the ones 100,000 words or longer, sample the ones with the most promising summaries, and then search through the fics and favorites of the authors I can tolerate. When I eventually exhaust a circle of good authors, I go back to the main list and start all over again, increasing the number of fics to bring back each time.

It can get a bit tedious, but less so than the normal method of just seeing what you can find.

i should give that method a shot. there's no easy way to pare things down because most authors don't mark categories for their fic. i have the same problem over at adultfiction.net (although i prefer them, when their server isn't down, because usually i'm in some eensy fandom and i just want SMUT RIGHT NOW OMG if that's where i am, and that's the easiest place to find random fandoms [that was kind of hard to type]).

One day, if I'm bored enough, I may in fact begin work on my own list of good (or at least tolerable) fic in all the fandoms I read. I'm a psycho for the ethical treatment of the English language, so you know that if I ever make a list the fics will at least be legible.

If I make that list, there will be a special smut edition. :D

Jeff and I love Calvin and Hobbes. We've been reading the book collections every night before bed.

Squee! Someone else besides me likes the Diva!

Very cool X-Men wallpaper.

Great stoned MWPP, LOL.

I used to have a Rainbow Bright wallhanging when I was little. *Sigh* And the spiffy thing is that I can get Carebears and such again now for when I have a little girl!

i totally had a rainbow brite canopy bed when i was little, i slept in it for years and years before the sheets were like in shreds.

I ADORE the new care bears, although i am grumpy that they are replacing Grumpy bear with World Cup Trophy Bear, or whatever the hell its name is, because it's more cheerful no doubt. I want one of the glow in the dark ones, but i can't bring myself to pay $15 for it.

My Little Pony icon, squee!

I would have LOVED your bed! They're replacing Grumpy Bear?! Sacrilege!
