Thanks for posting these! I was just coming here to ask about hummingbird screensavers but Luv beat me to it.  I've already downloaded some and will put them on my kindle today!

From an interesting photo I found on the web, taken by an F15 pilot as he and his wingman passed by a Shuttle launch in FL.



Wow - thanks SO much for that one!  My husband flew F-15's for years, then was an F-15 simulator instructor after he retired from the A.F.  He will LOVE this one!  Actually, so will I!

Oh no! I'm sorry BT, I glanced at yours before I went off on my expedition to find suitable images. I didn't realize there were dupes. Let me know which ones and I'll remove them.

I would never have thought that to be a shuttle launch, didn't think they would launch with aircraft nearby. I was guessing a SAM.

I was guessing maybe they fly them in the area as security against stupid or malicious private pilots? (Looks like they're at least carrying Sidewinders.)

Yep, they were flying CAP (Combat Air Patrol) - much like they did around New York & DC after 9/11. 

Here it is in color.   This is now extra cool to me, because that's the launch we could see from Disney World in May.   Smiley  I might just have to secretly hack DH's Kindle & put that pic on there as a surprise - even though it is a Strike Eagle, not the single seat air-to-air model he flew.

I am going to have to go through this entire thread just in the first few pages some VERY coo images!

here are a few I tossed together in a few seconds to test out the ss hack. I just grabbed some images and cropped converted them.

"Pics moved to other thread"

I use Irfanview. its free its tiny its seriously small and fast. perfect for crop resize convert to greyscale etc.. I keep the exe (no other files needed) on a flash drive at all times :-)

There's a separate thread for DX screensavers...

A few random images and about 20 Hubble images that were requested in the DX thread. DX Versions of all of these are available in the DX thread.

Does anyone happen to have a screensaver for the Blue Razz skin from Decal Girl? I ordered the skin the other day and looked it over but making a matching screensaver goes way beyond my photoshop skills.

I have a Kindle 1 and I added a bunch of screensavers you guys have shared.  Worked great.  Then I got greedy and added some more and it's stuck.  The same screensaver keeps coming up.  Any idea what's going on?  I had a decalgirl ss in, then I added some last night and it worked fine.  I added a few more this morning & now it's stuck.

Is the memory full? maybe you exceeded the amount of room you had left and it went wonky? I dunno... I never had a problem with my K1, and I think at one point I had like 30 SS on it.

OK, I went back and did the alt-shift-0 thing on a couple of them and it's working fine again.  Smiley  Thanks to everyone that posted such great SS.   I like the one that goes with my DecalGirl skin but it's fun to have some hunky guys & comics on it too.

Don't forget to reboot your Kindle whenever you add or delete screensaver images.
