My little sister need a scan of this page of this dictionary for something she is doing at the Joseph Smith Papers, and I thought it looked neat. :D

Nice view from Mars I found on NASA's site. Not sure exactly where. I assume it was taken from a rover, so somewhere one of them's been.

If anyone here is serious about desktop customization:

HD Wallpapers: http://interfacelift.com/
Extensible desktop widgets: http://rainmeter.net/
Customizable application launcher: http://rocketdock.com/
Additional themes and resources: http://customize.org/

Useful subreddits:

I'm a little obsessed with elegant UI.
