At the risk of resurrecting an old thread in which a large number of images are no longer there, it's time for a new thread.

I got a new cell phone on Friday. This is my wallpaper on it:

(The URL is kind of weird. I hope it shows up. In case it doesn't show up, it is a coiled up Western Diamondback Rattlesnake.)

So to talk on the cell phone, you put your ear next to the rattlesnake's head.

My phone's just a picture of my cat Arthur, but probably no one wants to open my laptop without having me set the wallpaper first, it's a rotation of scary/gory things.

Here's Arthur.

And examples of my computer wallpapers.
