Hi everyone,
Since it's the season for giving, I made a couple desktop wallpapers to share. They are sized at 1280x1024. I hope everyone has a fun and safe holiday season!

Merry Christmas to all of you!

Merry Christmas, guys. Have a wonderful holiday season.
Oh, East of sands and sunlit gulf, your blood is thin, your gods are few;
You could not break the Northern wolf and now the wolf has turned on you.
The fires that light the coasts of Spain fling shadows on the Eastern strand.
Master, your slave has come again with torch and axe in his right hand!
