I change my desktop wallpaper a lot. Here is my latest wallpaper — you can download it if you would like and use it yourself.
One of the reasons I was inspired to a.) make this and b.) share it is because yesterday I attended a “brown bag” session talking about copyright. Marisa Ramirez, Kennedy Library’s Digital Repository Librarian gave the presentation and it was both interesting and very informative.
Did you know that things created before 1923 are not protected by copyright?
This poster was created in 1918 by poster designer Charles Buckles Falls. I love it. Learn more about it at the Library of Virginia web site.

So copyright didn’t exist before this date, interesting. Where do you get your wallpaper from – I only know of creative commons licenced sites like Flickr and freedesktopwallpaper.org as my sources.
