The other day I once again decided to change my Desktop picture to yet another Porsche 911R GT3 race car. I've long ago started the routine of changing my desktop picture to reflect my current car modeling build. So I thought that it would be rather interesting to see what my modeling friends here at AutoModeler have for their desktop picture.

And since most of us run Windows, what picture if any we're using for our lock screen.

Background, P-47 Razorback and Cletrac, France (1944), doesn't get any better than that!



Lock Screen, gorgeous '57 Nomad, my dream car.

I change mine every few weeks, but presently it is a Singer 911.

Mine is a picture one of my wheeling friends took of me on a hill climb in Maine a couple years ago.

I usually use my last build.

That means the next one will probably be a Warhawk which I am doing as a quick build for fun.

cheers

I change desktop image fairly often. At the moment I have an image, from may 2018, when the rapeseed flowers were in full bloom.

I haven't changed my backrground picture in five years:



It's from Switzerland when I was hiking there. You can just see village at the bottom (Grindelwald) and mountain at center is Wetterhorn.
