Simple computer desktops

I'll tell you a secret. I post tons of links to desktop wallpaper on here because I love illustrations and artwork. But I hardly use any of them since I just can't work with a crazy, distracting background. Only minimal ones make the cut, so imagine my delight when I found Simple Desktops, a collection of... simple desktops. (Via Coudal, I believe.) Love that phone booth!

I love these! I have the same problem with loving the artwork in a lot of desktops but not being able to work with so much going on in the background, so these are perfect. Thanks for sharing the link!

It was time for me to freshen up the wallpaper. Thanks for the tip!

I must work on a monitor (well, actually it's my laptop) that is much smaller scale that y'all cuz I can't see my desktop after I've opened up the days work and explorer so I can read my fave blog.... lol
