A found some posters from art-house showings of some films.

             

My favorites are the Big Lebowski and Young Frankenstein repros. Be advised there is some adult language in the last image.

I have just installed the screensaver hack and am collecting screensavers. I was wondering if anyone has done the movie poster from Gone With the Wind. As, you can see from my pic, it is my all time favorite. Or if someone could direct me to a link for instructions on making your own screensavers that would be so helpful! Thanks!

Just right-click on an image here that you want, the select the "Save Image As..." option, then select where you want to save it on your 'puter. (The exact wording of the menu option may differ a bit depending on which browser you use -- I use Firefox.) Then when you connect your Kindle to your PC via the USB cord, you can just drag-and-drop the saved image file into the screensaver directory on your Kindle.

BTackitt,

Did you generate the fractals yourself or did you download the images? If you generated them yourself, what software did you use?

Also, do you by any chance have the full color versions?

Ok I just finished up a series of SS based on Hubble pics.
I uploaded the originals and the SS both so you could see that I tried not to change very much, just size/grayscale sometimes rotation..
There is a total of 76 pics between the originals and the SS. I won't link them all just give you a link to the album to find them in.

I got the Belkin Neoprene Sleeve because I planned on reading it out of the case, but I'm starting to think I might pick up a leather case for it eventually.... probably something like the Octo Vintage (below), although it's showing unavailable at Amazon. As for skins, my USC Trojans skin should arrive today!  Cool

If anyone has any screensavers of Arwen from Lord of the Rings, I'd love to see them.  I'm not graphically talented to make my own, sigh....

There are some lovely SS on here though and I snagged a few!  After I do the sun fade test on my new Kindle Arwen, I'll add the SS hack.  (hopefully it will be sunny today)

If you can find an image you like on the internet and link to it, I'd be happy to convert it for you. Try searching for Arwen wallpaper, that's a good way to get BIG image files, which are the best to use.
