I just wanted an image, no text as I live in a semi-transparent terminal most of the time
This made me think of someone getting stuck living in an airport and writing this script because they miss the stars.
Which is in no way relevant or particularly useful, admittedly.
- randomdrake 14y agoHeh, you're not too far off. When I'm developing, I use Vim with a semi-transparent terminal. Any text on the background would be terribly distracting. I wouldn't say I'm stuck. The images of stars are my own little gateways to the Universe. I can't ever be "stuck" when I'm looking at them. I have a fascination with the stars and all things to do with space & quantum physics, so it works perfectly for me. I guess it's just something I've always been drawn to. I even have a tattoo which represents these things. I find the stars and all celestial bodies to be comforting, beautiful, and quite inspirational. Much more than just a plain background.
- ktizo 14y agoI used to have a darkened version of the hubble deep field set as my terminal background and currently have a satellite photo of martian dunes and one of those absolutely mental long exposures from the ISS by Don Pettit as some of my desktop backgrounds. They are lovely, I keep meaning to find out about getting some prints. http://www.flickr.com/photos/nasa_jsc_photo/sets/72157629726792248/ http://www.flickr.com/photos/nasa_jsc_photo/sets/72157629726...
