Picture Request

[minoanmiss]

I don't want to write about the last few days. Instead: I need a lock screen image for my phone. Suggestions, I humbly request?

Comments

Any particular themes you want or want to avoid? Any other requirements for the image?

Oooh, also what dimensions and any size limit on the image?

(Seanan has some pretty wallpapers if you don't mind advertising her books, but they may be too big or wrong aspect ratio - though sometimes phones will let you choose a section of a photo to use: http://seananmcguire.com/wallpapers.php

Something cheerful, non-erotic (a wise person vetoed my first choice on those grounds) and non-political and non-religious (for the same reasons as non erotic). I don't actually know what aize limits my phone (iPhone 7) has, I figured my tech savvy friends would know better than I. :)

I have a recent picture of the children not killing each other. Also lots of flower photos. And APOD pictures work excellently.

[minoanmiss]

I really loved the pictures of the children not killing each other. :)

I suggest either Diana Prince or Phillippus, since that fandom has inspired you lately.

Or there's always the lady in my icon, who can tell whoever's trying to use your locked phone that hailing frequencies are NOT open, thank you very much. :-)

I like this idea. Skeptical Uhura gets my vote.

[minoanmiss]

You know what I would love lovel lov? A picture of Uhura with a starfield in her hair. I wonder whom I could commission that from.

[corylea]

This image of Uhura might be good for a lock screen. We'd want to crop out some of the extraneous material, of course, but the central image would be great.

Something that makes you smile when you see it.

WOOT!

I would say go with an APOD photo.

I am reminded by APOD mentions to suggest EPOD. A random sampling--

Not a really good lock-screen photo, but I like the use of mythology: http://epod.usra.edu/blog/2017/05/hephaestus-and-aphrodite.html

[minoanmiss]

Hephaesteus and Aprohodite is really lovely. :)

I use a pic that I took when I lived in Switzerland

[minoanmiss]

That's really lovely!

I'd suggest any of these: Wonder Woman wallpapers

In fact, since i looked them up, I'm snagging a few to add to my desktop rotation. :D

I don't know how an iPhone does wallpapers but I use an app: image-to-wallpaper to size things appropriately.

EEE THANK YOU
