Look at the rainmeter wiki for documentation regarding different plugins/settings. Make sure it has the same settings as the art view. The things such as forced layout, height, width, etc. If it's too big or you need it to take less space when you use it try decreasing the height or width.

Snowolf's WP Collection - 42,000+ WPs!
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
I've been collecting wallpapers for a while now and have over 42,000 in this collection. I've lowered my estimate to compensate for duplicates but you wouldn't expect me to collect over 42,000 wallpapers sober right?
This collection does not contain WallPaper Man's collection.
(although may contain some of the same images, also see duplicate image detector in second post)
thepiratebay.se/torrent/6979439/Snowy_s_Wallpapers
-This is for people who really just want the whole thing but you can choose single WP genere folders. TPB didn't like the hundreds of folders holding over 42,000 WPs so they're RAR'd into the major sections.

-This is my entire collection segmented for those who either can't P2P or would just prefer Mediafire. This will contain all the updates which will be logged in the Wallpaper Download Guide.txt

I've liked these kinds of wallpapers for a while now, but I could use a few more for my collection. Dumping some of the ones I have in the hopes I'll get a few more in return.

Just finished Bioshock. Post any pic related.
bump-a-dump
Quote wallpapers or wallpapers that include text in some way
I have a few of these, will post to bump thread
Haven't seen one of these in a while. Though for some reason, I have only this one from the last. Has anyone got more of the kind? I have a couple more, but they don't really match this description. I'll post them anyway.
Not as dark as I'd like, but hey there you go.
I've got a bunch of horror/creepy/dark ones.

so they are the same huh, didn't saw it
Sometimes when you're surfing the internet, you come across a picture that causes you to just stop and think for a second. I mean really think. These are photos that you found without intending to that hit hard and caught you off guard and caused you to carefully rethink yourself or your life or philosophy in general. Has anybody else felt something like that out of nowhere?
this might probably mean very little or nothing to many of you anons, but lately I have been figuring and realizing some stuff out:
lately, hard science people, they are getting more and more important
all out economy depends on mostly engineering to mass produce stuff, and hard science people basically run all most successful businesses out there
all our military also works a lot on missiles and satellites and such stuff
our society and civil life too depends more and more on hard science people, google, facebook, twitter, that kind of thing
scientific communities keep separating themselves from general population more and more, even my university (chemistry) has its own print and publisher, library, laboratories, financing, events, social stuff, pocket cash events (such as lecturing or lab work etc) and so on
if you take a look at employment rates and starting salaries, by far hard science is the most secure and profitable thing to do
I feel like, soon enough, hard science folks might simply take over everything with ease and no opposition

Market's aren't magical and infinite. Once a ton of STEM graduates over flood the market wages will gradually drop. Supply and demand.
>>6403311
I doubt it. Brilliant people aren't an everyday commodity that can be subjected to simplistic models like supply and demand. Math and science are infinite in all direction and so are their opportunities. They have been king since we've been aware of them and they will be king long after you and I are dust. Thus the people who study and pioneer them are inherently more important than those who don't. The industrial revolution, the space race (then and now), and the race for alternative fuel sources and the holy motherload, fusion power.
Moral of the story, engineers and doctors are more important than retail managers and business majors because their trade runs on a more exact and reliable science.
