    Being a child of the 1980s I'm a bit of a nut for anything to come from that decade. It stands to reason then that I am a Nintendo nut also. Here is my current desktop wallpaper - a single, solitary Super Mario Bros mushroom.

    Frank ,
    That's cool......Just do your own thing.
    I remember the Nintendo craze very well.

    I'm afraid it's no craze with me Barb, it's a lifelong hobby. I still play the oldies to this day and own several retro gaming systems. My Xmas present to myself was an Atari 2600 :)

    Apologies for derailing the topic slightly.

    It was one of my favorites.

    Hiya B,

    I have a file with fotos of some of my garden flowers and a little software program that I can set to change them any way that I want. So I have it set to change the pics randomly every time the compi is started-up.
    The changer program draws from that file of fotos.

    So I do not really have just one favourite, each time I start-up I am surprised which one is showing.
