Wow, Jason, you're picking out some awesome pics, thanks! The Life archive is an awesome resource. I'd gladly use any of the pics you posted so far as a screensaver. and especially like the booksale is paris, union station, the Hoffman Reynolds Hays photo and the water soaked books, great choices

Thanks Scott, I could have spent several more hours going through the archive (and still might!) but I had to force myself to go to sleep! =)

Jason, could you find a Hokaisu Wave image for DX? I know that Google has a bunch of images of that, although not sure about portrait. It's been a while since I looked at them. Feel better!

Here you go... tried to crop it how I thought it would look best, but I don't mind re-doing it if you'd like it cropped differently.

another car - couldn't get it to trim correctly on the left side - does solid black work ok on the kindle screen? Yes, there are 16 shades of grey, and solid white and black both look fine. The image size should be 824x1200 though, so I'm not sure how it will handle the slightly smaller images you posted. I don't know if it will scale them or just leave the space around blank...?

By the way, I found another good method for searching Google Images, on the left hand side, you can specify images of an exact size, put in 1600x1200 because there are lots and lots of great wallpaper images in that size. Then all you have to do is crop the width down to 824. Of course you have to find good images with something interesting that takes up only about half the width so you can crop it easily. Most of the images I've been posting for the past hour have been 1600x1200 cropped images.
