there was this cool scene in Gladiator where the guy sticks out his fist and then after liek a second he makes a thumbs down. That's what i'm doing right now.

I guess it would be difficult to pick a fovorite, but these are the two most recent backgrounds I've been using:

Very hard to decide. Love a lot of the stuff Greg Martin and I have a lot of other stuff. I really like the one I have now. It was 1024x768 originally, but it's all white mostly, so I added some more white and made it 1600x1200 (meaning, no resize).

Here it is at 1600x1200 and here at 1024x768 (same quality, just less or more white area).

Oh yeah. It's Milla Jovovich

Don't think I've seen her so beautiful before =)

In real life, thumbs down meant spare the bastard's life and thumbs up meant kill him. Back then, death was a good thing -- it's what the crowd came to see. But Hollywood changed it to appeal to modern sensibilities (the people responsible are probably the same ones who mistakenly put the cry of "Roma victrix" in the masculine in Gladiator).
