I'll bet it's not just me who has Donzi wallpaper on his computer, both at work, and at home. I figured we can post our wallpapers, just to see who's looking at what all day. Let's do each other a favor, and resize the pics, so this thread stays nice.

Microsoft has a great power toy for this...allows u to R click and resize very easily. Download it at MSFT Resizer (http://download.microsoft.com/download/whistler/install/2/wxp/en-us/imageresizerpowertoysetup.exe)

If anyone wants a copy of anyone's WP, shoot 'em an email (can't attach to a PM). Here's what I have at work today. I'll post my home WP next time I'm home.

This is my wall paper.....I took this shot of Boca Cita Key during our SEADOG run to the keys in FEB 2005. One of my favorite pictures ever.

Where is Boca Cita Key?
Couldn't find it on the map?

Lenny you don't seem to have a stern light pole
are Canadian laws different?

My pole is lowered to the bottom. I don't like it hanging out in the breeze :D Mounted on starboard rear as all others are.

As well, when tie-ing up on the rear lift eye, the pole becomes a place where the rope pivots. I think the lower the better. It sure is nice working on the motor, and when lowered, having THAT thing dig into your thighs all the time :mad:

If you look on the left side of the picture on the horizon you can see Miami.

Actually, the buildings to the left in CG's pic are Key Biscayne populace..., Soldiers Key is the faintly visible island to the left of the lighthouse, and right of the buildings, Fowey Light would be due east of Soldiers Key about 2 miles or so, right at the reef drop off point. I can vividly remember Ed Rivers antics, whose family owned Boca Chita in the 60's, aiming straight for that lighthouse seawall at 50 mph in his 14 open Baby and full spinning the boat about 15 feet from the wall to see if he could wet the lighthouse base with spray... crazy guy. Ed was later paralyzed about 2 years later when he crashed his new Porsche 911 on Pine Tree Drive by the Convention Center... His family owned WEDR and a couple other radio stations. That little island has quite a history. There is still a big barn in the middle that used to house a COMPLETE and incredible woodworking and machine shop. 4 or 5 of the outbuildings went away in a couple hurricanes, but the Chapel (barely visible behind the sailbot mast), BBQ building, bathrooms, barn and 1 guest house/generator room are still there.

the story's I have about that lighthouse would shock the DG section.... :alligator .. oh those were the good ol' days... :smileybo:

Auh......Which ones would you like to see? I use webshots as a screen saver and background picture. So, it changes every day. Having a vast collection from AOTH and other gatherings posted here really is great. From the looks of the pictures here, I need to add a few more great shots. Thanks everyone!

My kid's ski boat and my 22 is the wallpaper on computer 1 in my office.
Computer #2 is this photo of my gang in the 22.
And this photo of Donzi Trish is on my lap top.

Right next to the Statue of Liberty.

Crazy Horse weren't you selling your 22?

Most of these guys don't have a photo program they just load from their cameras, beats the heck out of me why the manufacturers insist on such a large format. I bet half the Donzi members are still on dial up and don't bother waiting for the pics to load, I know as soon as I see them over lapping the monitor I hit the X to stop the page from loading and only open the right sized ones or just read the post and kill it.
