Desktop pictures


I am still looking for the ideal image for my desktop. Although I could revert back to any of my last images (Pulp fiction cover of "Take it and like it", the Shadow) I feel as if I need a change. I have been looking at pictures from film noir, and images of Ming the Merciless. Its tough finding the perfect graphic, one that will amuse and give me solace on dull days, yet spur me on to ever greater triumphs and eventual world domination.
I bet you are all wondering why Herne the Hunter and Christopher Lambert didn't feature. Well, the one is just to benevolent, and the other would probably drain my life through the monitor, supping on all those who view his image to grow his mighty forehead. In fact, if Christpher Lambert were a playstation character, his powerup would involve his forehead swelling up and him headbutting people. If I were a playstation character I would lose stamina after running 1 step, and my ultimate power hit would be creeping up on people and hitting them over the head with a bottle. But I digress.
So, no pictures of flowers or animals, and certainly no happy snaps of myself and friends in good times (What good times? It's all unremitting protestant misery dammit, and I evade photos with all the practised stealth of the occasionally hunted. Keep moving, stay safe.) But I have an idea for the perfect image. A character who tolerates no nonsense, wears really special clothing and throws babies to the dogs. In short, a man who gets things done, ruggedly.

Stay tuned for the winning image...
