These are some really terrific photos. It would be hard to choose the best, but if pressed, I might give Arlen the prize for catching the rainbow.
Personally, I do not have anything pointedly Scottish right now, but I do have a wee lassie:
It's my granddaughter from last summer's trip to the beach. It's quite dated--she's crawling and almost walking now at almost 10 months, but it's so cute I can't replace it yet.
You can see how she's captured my heart.

My standard background is a picture I took while vacationing in Curacao. It is shot from the dining area of my resort (Breezes Curacao), looking out over the swimming pool to the Caribbean. It helps warm me up in the winter, especially on days like today: -5 degrees F this morning.
For my screen saver, it rotates among the pictures I have taken of the World Heritage sites I have visited.

Hey Jay,
I have that Warriors picture printed out and on my outside office door. Living in "INDN COUNTRY" it well shows the strong link between Native peoples and the Scots.
I keep meaning to buy the poster and frame it inside my office.

I haven't changed mine in two years or so. It's a picture of my wife sunbathing in the back yard. She is decent, but still I won't reproduce it here.

warning: geek alert!
Hi folks
Like many others here, I change my wallpaper often and as the mood takes me. However, this has been my wallpaper on my laptop now for about 2 months. For those not into computer games, this is based on the "world of warcraft" online game (produced by Blizzard entertainment).
Ok, so it's not scottish (although in the game, dwarves speak with a vaguely scottish accent), but I play my dwarven character almost daily.
ok... (/geek alert)
cheers
