[Faye Took]

I have The Two Towers movie poster that has Aragorn, Gandalf, Arwen, Frodo, Gollum, Saruman, Gimli, and Legolas. And then it has the two towers.

[engwaalphiel]

i have different places from ME on my desktop . My favourite has to be different views of lorien (from the film) . Every now and again i might put some illustrations from the books onto my desktop for a change.

[Cherie Centaur]

I have wallpaper which is a picture of Legolas. smilies/biggrin.gif smilies/biggrin.gif smilies/biggrin.gif smilies/biggrin.gif smilies/biggrin.gif smilies/biggrin.gif smilies/biggrin.gif smilies/biggrin.gif

[Raefindel]

I have a Legolas wallpaper, too. And the funny thing is, My husband doesn't seem to mind.

[Diamond18]

Well, I have Daffy Duck on my desktop (see avatar) but I had the Argonath up for a while. So that's Isildur and Elendil, right?

[Nimrodel]

Actually, Diamond, You're half right; they are Isildur and Anarion.

I have a collage of characters as my desktop.

[Krumtakh the Obtuse]

I used to have ringwraith wallpaper and an eye of sauron screensaver, but my dad changed it. smilies/mad.gif

[Meela]

i have the wood from lotr where frodo and sam were when they first set off, and gandalf spouted out loads about how sauron had loads of birds and beasts spying for him, etc.

i cant remember which screensaver...

oh... horses, and characters in general

[Beren87]

I have a very nice picture of the inside of Bag end on my desktop at the moment.

[HammerTime]

I have a funny, well I think it is, picture of Gimli staring at nothing tiled all over my desktop, but it changes a bit.

[Beruthiel]

I have a Lothlorien pic on my desktop and a Two Towers preview screensaver.
Only 9 days left till TTT!!
smilies/biggrin.gif

[Lidija Kasik]

I have a Fellowship wallpaper (Hans Claesson's design, he's got wonderfull stuff) and also the screensaver.

[Ainahithiel of Mirkwood]

akay, here's the stat's so far

Eowyn-1
The TWO TOWERS poster-two
LEGOLAS!!!-3
collage of different characters-4 (I added some of the people who rotated posters to this category)
Places in Middle Earth-2
Ringwraith or evil things- one
gimli- one

Good stats so far. But I'm surprised no one has Aragorn smilies/eek.gif on their desktop(he's my second hottest person, next to Legolas of course)

ONLY 9 MORE DAYS UNTIL TWO TOWERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[elsye]

I have Gimli, Legolas, Aragorn and Gandlaf the white on my desktop

[Marillanna Sarnie]

My desktop is a picture I'm sure many have seen....... it is the Mordor Online picture. It's funny, when the ol' computer finally starts up, the first thing you see is the Eye of Sauron! smilies/eek.gif

[akhtene]

WOW! I've probably got the same one - the eye of Sauron both on desktop and screensaver.

Wanted to change the screensaver to 'the Ring on the bottom of Anduin', but forgot where I saw it. smilies/rolleyes.gif Anyone seen it? Help!

[Tigerlily Gamgee]

I have the TTT Frodo wallpaper (with a small Frodo and Sam being lead by Gollum at the bottom) from the official site... and that is accompanied by many different LOTR icons.
A little overboard? Nah!

[Bill Ferny]

Its Legolas smilies/mad.gif, a revolving series of Orlando Bloom takes, endlessly parading across my computer screen, filling my sleeping with nightmares, and my waking with dread. One blue eyed, blond haired, vision after another, without respite and unmerciful.

No, it wasn't my idea…

90% of marriage is sacrifice.

[Arathiriel]

I have a picture of sweet Samwise Gamgee up for my wallpaper! smilies/biggrin.gif

[Eomer of the Rohirrim]

I've got the Gandalf, Aragorn, Gimli and Legolas one too.

I had the Pippin one up for ages though.

[Helkahothion]

I don't have any pic's cause we have only one computer and my parents and sisters don't like lotr as mutch as I do.
smilies/frown.gif

Does anyone have a suggetion on how to persue them?

Ford duratec engine (http://www.ford-wiki.com/wiki/Ford_Duratec_engine)

[Diamond18]

Poor Bill, indeed.

[Arwen Imladris]

I used to have a LOTR wallpaper and a FOTR trailer for a screansaver, but my parents made me take them off. smilies/frown.gif

[Ainahithiel of Mirkwood]

I feel for you Bill! smilies/frown.gif smilies/frown.gif smilies/confused.gif

Well.... actually, no.. no I don't.. smilies/tongue.gif

[Lhunbelethiel]

I have the Two Towers desktop with a big, gorgeous Aragorn, and Legolas, Gandalf, and Gimli. It's blue and says "The Two Towers: The Journey Continues December 18th." I also have it on my computer at work. Plus the TTT screensaver with, you guessed it- Aragorn. smilies/smile.gif

I love this topic--screenasavers-- what geeks we all are! (I say that lovingly!) smilies/eek.gif

[Arwen_Evenstar]

I used to have a pic of Smaug on my desktop, but my brother changed it. I then had a collage of all the movie posters, but my brother changed it. I then had a picture of Frodo smilies/wink.gif but my brother changed it.( smilies/mad.gif smilies/mad.gif ) Then my mum, tired of our constand bickering, locked the desktop on a plain teal backround smilies/mad.gif smilies/mad.gif smilies/mad.gif !!!!!

[Airehiriel]

I have a FOTR wallpaper on my computer here at work. It has small pics of each character (EXCEPT SAM!!! smilies/mad.gif ) And a few different places, like Bree and Lothlorien.

[kaleidoscope]

I used to have my computer so that a differemt LOTR desktop came up every time you started the computer. That was great!! smilies/biggrin.gif smilies/biggrin.gif smilies/biggrin.gif smilies/biggrin.gif By then, my dad changed it.

[Manardariel]

Untill my uncle recked my PC, getting rid of all my downloads smilies/mad.gif, I had:

Eowyn-2
Aragorn-Sreenscaver&Desktop
Lorien&Rivendell- 4&a screenscaver each
TTT- the yellowish poster with all the characters, also the trailer as a screensaver

[Demloth of Dol Amroth]

heres the depths of my sickness:

built a computer. named it "Orodruin."
set up different user settings for different themes: for example, there is a nazgul theme with a nazgul desktop, middle-earthish cursors, part of track 5 for startup, almost everything black w/red text.
there is a default "Mt.doom" theme with art from one of the mogul lotr artists, same cursors, and such. unfortunately it isn't connected to the internet-i'm doing this from my parents dell computer. it's all black and cool, my name for it is "barad-dur." one final note-i admire sauron's constructs-his fortresses and forges-not the maia himself.
now crown me lord-high-hobbit king of the computer geeks. smilies/biggrin.gif smilies/biggrin.gif smilies/biggrin.gif

[Thengise Greenleaf of Mirkwood]

I'm afraid I don't have anything, because my family shares a computer, but I'm getting my own soon. Oh and Bill Ferny where did you get the revolving series of Orlando Bloom takes? Or at least where did your wife get it? LoL!

[Bill Ferny]

Thengise, to knowingly perpetuate evil is an evil greater than the evil first intended.

[meliverinde]

Hi everybody!
This picture of Minas Tirith (http://www.nightrunner.com/cgi-bin/show_image.py?id=1134&pn=0) has been my wallpaper for over 2 years and I still think it looks GREAT!


akhtene: I've seen a pic of the ring on the bottom of anduin
here (http://digitalart.org/artwork/artwork.php?ID=694) but I don't know about a screensaver (sorry).

[Ainahithiel of Mirkwood]

*bows down to Demloth of Dol Amroth*

You are truly the Geek King.

kinda lost track of the stats.


ONLY 4 (four!!!) more days!! smilies/eek.gif smilies/eek.gif smilies/eek.gif smilies/biggrin.gif

[Neferchoirwen]

My golly, Demloth!

anyhoo, I used to have the painting of Bag End on my wall paper...but since the comp's in my bor's room, he put Mike Portnoy's drum set instead (interesting set).

Maybe after I get to see the movie, I'll get my bro to put up a pic of Faramir or Legolas. After all, I used to own his room
smilies/biggrin.gif smilies/biggrin.gif smilies/biggrin.gif

[Ebony]

I have a beautiful hand-drawn picture of Frodo looking out over the Anduin valley with Mordor in the background. I can't remember who the artist is, but it's really an excellect pic.

Right now I am using the Rivendell screen saver from the official website, but have several others loaded from there that I switch around every so often.

[steve]

I dont have any chars on my desktop, but i have the full Gallery of the Hildebrant Lotr Artwork cycling through as my Screen saver, I love the pic of Eowyn and the Witchking

[Sleeping Beauty]

*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.

[Ebony]

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?

[meliverinde]

Hi Ebony!
I suppose you can try here (http://fan.theonering.net/rolozo/collection/hildebrandt/?hide=-3) or maybe this one (http://www.nightrunner.com/cgi-bin/artistlist.py?d=1). 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

[Nalyia]

Mix(which includes gandalf)-8
frodo-3
sam-2
Arwen-1
Aragorn-5

oh, I now have a pic of Arwen and Aragorn, its so sweet, its Arwen cloaked in black robes and a veil and then a blended pic of Aragorn with brego.

[Meela]

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

[Talon Stormcrow]

I used to have all of the characters on my desktop...I tried to change them weekly until it made my computer crash smilies/frown.gif So now I have to stick with a plain black screen. smilies/rolleyes.gif

[Carlas]

*skips in*

HAHA, well I have merry and pippin!

*skips out again*

yah, sorry about that! smilies/wink.gif

smilies/tongue.gif

[One Axe to Rule them All]

I have Sauron and the ring, with part of the poem on it

[Firondoiel]

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.

[Sophia the Thunder Mistress]

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.

Sophia

[Mordor_Queen]

frodo hes so cute! smilies/evil.gif

[Meela]

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.

[Angadraug]

I have a red and black picture of a Ring Wraith with the One Ring in the foreground. I got it off of lordoftherings.net

[Salix]

Well, I used to have a collage I made myself from assorted pictures on my hard drive, but right now it's my cat. smilies/biggrin.gif

[Iarwain]

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

[Arafangwen]

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!

[Mitheithel]

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.

[Arwen Evenstar the Fair]

I had Aragorn Arwen and Eowyn!! smilies/tongue.gif smilies/biggrin.gif

[The Only Real Estel]

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...). smilies/cool.gif

[Brinniel]

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.

[Niluial]

*Ahem* Small poll smilies/wink.gif? I have Arwen on my desktop and its like a movie of her it is cool!

[Nuinatariel]

I have a picture of the Ringwraiths when they're chasing Arwen through the river (except without Arwen, only the Ringwraiths) on my desktop.

[The Only Real Estel]

I've got that one too, Nuinatariel. smilies/cool.gif

[Nyneve]

I have Legolas after he has told Aragorn that he was "wrong to dispair" He is so cute at that part! And I have a Boromir Screen Saver!

[Meela]

At the moment I have the TTT advertising poster.

[peonydeepdelver]

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...

[Adutincowen]

I used to have Treebeard with Merry and Pippin... before that it was the Ents attacking Isengard... before that is was Legolas...

[Luinalatawen]

I used to have the picture of the fellowship walking over the bridge when they set off from Rivendell. It looked really nice.
