Bad-ass wallpaper for racing fans

Post by pk500 »

Fellow racing fans:

I'm putting on my pimp hat, but I think this is a pretty bad-ass wallpaper created by our Online Services department for your computer:

You knowledgeable racing fans know the significance of the three cars in the wallpaper, right?

Enjoy,
PK

Two-thirds correct by coincidence, but wrong overall. :)

Take care,

"Knowledgeable racing fans" on some OW boards would just obsess about all the empty seats visible in the picture.

Hey, but at least I can see the window to my Media Center workspace during events in that wallpaper, which is cool. :)

PK... give credit where credit is due. The wallpaper was actually created by the fine graphic designers at IMS Creative Services. Online Servicesjust made big enough for your PC screens. (Just messing with you PK)

You can also see the window in front of my perch in the media center

True, true on Creative. But I wrote the cheesy copy in the lower left box! :)

Your window is the same as mine, as we have the mutual displeasure of sitting next to each other and pelting each other with rocks and garbage for the Month of May. :)
