Pale Blue Wallpaper
« on: 09 Nov 2011, 17:28 »
I've done some desktop wallpaper sets in the past, but this is just a one-off inspired by true greatness.  Visually, it is a tribute to the Pale Blue Dot image.

Edit: Preview image isn't keeping for some reason.  First link above will take you where you want to go.

An important reminder for Placid RPers

One day they woke me up
So I could live forever
It's such a shame the same
Will never happen to you

I have the entire Carl Sagan Series put together as a playlist that I'll put on and meditate to, or brighten my day when I'm feeling really cynical.
