April 2010 Wallpaper / Screensaver
April calendar.
The first photo is an old VW Bus we spotted in Giza. The driver said he thought it might be an old military vehicle. The second photo is a hood ornament, from the car show in West Suffield, CT last summer.

March 2010 Wallpaper / Screensaver
"About Time!" You Say.
I tried, for several days last week, to load up a VW photos onto the site that makes the wallpaper, to no avail. It kept cropping the Packard photo, and VB just gave up on that and let it be. Finally today (and with a completely new VW photo) it worked. The first photo is a well cared for Splittie, we found here in Cairo, Egypt. Unfortunately, VB had to take it with the iPhone as there were just too many boabs and guards milling around. The second photo is of a 1935 Packard we saw at the annual Congamond Lake car show in West Suffield, CT this past year.
Apologies for the lateness of this posting.

February 2010 Wallpaper / Screensaver
Better late than never.
VB forgot to post the new wallpaper / screensaver photos.
The first is a VW Beetle in an alley at The Khan. The second is a Nash Metropolitan at a Congamond Lake car show this past summer, in West Suffield, CT.

A Funkengroovin Happy New Year To All!!
Happy New Year!
Here are the two wallpaper / screen savers for January 2010.
Below: Representing best wishes for the new year - A photo of a cabrio VB took on a trip to Germany in 1996. This is a digitized representation of an old SLR photo.
Below: Representing resolutions and good intentions - a Midget (?) or a Sprite (?) needing a good bit of work.
)VB used to get rides in a Midget with another female co-worker. VB had a job with an employment agency for a few months after graduating from college. When her Chevy Malibu broke down in the middle of winter, VB rode to work with her manager, in a tiny little car, just like this. This co-worker would explicitly recount her previous evening's sexual endeavors in the bathroom, on the kitchen counter, or even in the MG - (UGH! hopefully not on VB's seat), and where ever else the mood struck.)

Monthly Wallpaper / Screensaver Calendar
Last year VB made a 2009 calendar (on her MacBook with iPhoto) of VWs she had photographed through the past year. She gave a few out, and was thinking of doing the same again this year. Then she happened upon another (non-car) blog, which offers a monthly desktop wallpaper calendar. Jealous, VB wanted one too. So, as an experiment she wants to start offering a monthly calendar of VWs, and another non-VW car.
To make a wallpaper or a screensaver, all you need to do is click on the image to enlarge it. Then Mac users control-click, others right-click. Click on "Set As A Desktop Background," or "picture" depending on your browser choices. You can fit it to your screen through your system preferences on your computer for wallpaper / screen saver adjustments.
This month choose between a close-up of a swamp cooler or a photo of King Farouk's 1931 Packard.
