Mac OS 8.6 needs some love here. Even just dots looks fine :




PB G3 Wallstreet 250Mhz.

I don't believe I have a screenshot of my System 7 installation on my PowerBook 1400, but here's the background I used:

I'll post a screenshot once I can get one

Here is a desktop background from my companion.

I started doing this white-on-black style a few years ago and I haven't dropped it. I prefer having consistency in my wallpapers.... to the point where I have one wallpaper for every machine.

Spoiler: All of them

Except for the 12, which I decided needed an exclusive.

This was the background on my PowerBook G3 Wallstreet.

Interestingly, that shark had is own life online and on other things after the use by Apple :

Unfair Use

Electronic distribution and viral economies allow millions of people to see your work—and thousands to steal it. First rule: No one cares about the rules.

I worked with someone who claimed that shark photo was his - it was one of his more modest outrageous lies

10.4.11 on my 17" PBG4, with ClearDock tweaks.

Emulated PPC counts ? Here is OS 9.0.4 on a MBP 16".

Nice screen saver.

I thought I had done this before but apparently I have not!

Here we go (more specs on each in signature area):

#2: the G5 server

#3: the 17" DLSD

I have not configured the 15" DLSD in my collection yet, so it’s just these three.

[All desktop backgrounds shot by me using colour reversal film, in respective order: Kodachrome 64, Ektachrome EPJ320, and Elite Chrome.]

Update: the 15-inch DLSD PowerBook G4, my Clouded Leopard test box, now has its own thematically consistent background.

So…was digging through stuff tonight (I've moved some stuff back to my server) and ran across this…

This was the second wallpaper I ever used on the G5 at my old job. Keep in mind that in February 2005 I had absolutely no idea what this might have been. It just looked cool and I was trying to put the then new 20" Aluminum Cinema Display in the best light.

My coworker at the time had no idea what to make of it, LOL.

I like it! Slackware is one of my favorite distros for no real reason, it just kind of is. I used it for a few months while distro hopping but enjoyed my time with it. I think I'll snag that wallpaper and use it for one of my 4:3 machines.
...especially one that I've actually installed Slackware onto.

Anyway, I don't have them all together so I'll be editing this post over the next few days, but here's the wallpaper I currently use on my PowerBook G4 (and 6600K). Unfortunately, it's 60 pixels too short (1600x900), but I'll live. Nevermind, I have the high res version now!

Who doesn't love it enough to spend $1,300 on it?​

Is that a humanitarian airdrop of tiaras in a war zone that's been carpet bombed with pink emulsion - what does it all mean?

Convert the image to greyscale and it looks greyt

 

[Dronecatcher]

Convert the image to greyscale and it looks greyt, uh, great

Grey Pink?

 

[Amethyst1]

Grey Pink?

Nah... grey grey.

Also, on a more general note, attaching images to a post will reduce their resolution to 2000×1125 pixels if they're larger. Thus an actual link to the original high-res version would be kool™.

Errr... 2000×1125 is pink enough for me, but thanks for the info.
