Whats wrong with plain old black, none of these fancy pictures for me.  My laptop does have the killswitch engage skull as a background though, but thats still mainly black, dont have it here though so cant post it.

I cannot understand how you people survive with all those shortcuts on your desktop ! I hate the few that I have !

PNG is a wonderful format thats incredibly compact when used with images with sharply deliniated colors, like pictures of text, much more so than gif. Its not suited for things containing gradients is all.
