Today a friend of mine drew my attention on deviantART, especially on Gilad's profile. I knew about deviantART for ages, I just never really had such a close look at the stuff over there and wasn't that interested back then. It's simply amazing what that guy from Israel is able to do with the camera, I've been browsing his gallery for like half an hour now and even forget about the food right in front of me. That just makes me want to travel the world even more, too bad I'm stuck in here. :(

What I noticed when I looked through some old stuff of myself at home, I rarely have any photos of myself and the people that surrounded me during the past few years, and I want to make sure that doesn't happen again (now that I more or less broke up with home and moved out for uni). Unfortunately I don't really have any camera at all (well except that crap you get with every mobile phone), and I haven't really looked closer what might be suitable for me, let alone affordable (I'm a poor bastard, especially right now :p). Maybe someone on ESR can tell me what I should look for, what is good or useless. I know we got a few people here who are interested in such stuff and probably have a clue (umayr, tom, .. ?).

Further, the cheap bastard I am I ripped probably half of the deviantART gallery by now to use some of that stuff as wallpapers for my notebook. Now I'm curious if there's some prog to pick a random wallpaper from a directory every time I boot my comp, has anyone heard of such a tool? That would be awesome aswell.
