Wallpaaaaper le lo,Wallpaaaaaper......
My father and I always argue about the wallpaper on his computer. I like to think of myself as an elitist connoisseur (don’t we all love being pretentious at times? :P) and prefer elegant black-and white or sepia images pirated from Flickr, or the lovely photographs in light colours which accompany every new version of Windows for my own computer.
My old man, however prefer things on, let’s just say, the “colourful side”. Really Colourful. Like 80’s colourful with neon pink and fuchsia assaulting my eyes. Call me a Grinch, but when I saw the little sparkly red and white Santa caps on our new XPS desktop, I had it. I mean, where did he even find the obnoxious computer baubles?
So, anyway, I asked him to change the wallpaper (with a death-glare). When I came back, he triumphantly stood beside the computer saying, “Now let me see you delete my wallpaper, ‘cause it’s that official Waves thingy.” I had conveniently downloaded the Waves wallpaper and forgotten to see what it looked like. And he was right, I couldn’t delete it.
So now the Waves Wallpaper sits pretty on my dad’s computer, while I’m still sticking to the lighter colours with the Quark Wallpaper on my screen.
An amalgamation of a thousand fuzzy hues, entwining with each other to create the essence of Waves- a bright, hot summer, full of energy and BITSian enthusiasm (and loads of sweat deserves special mention)- The Waves Wallpaper.
A serene blue seeps into the wallpaper, slowly taking over it, taking the place of pride as the background of the delightful, glittery Quark logo. If this was the Renaissance, old man Leonardo would have been proud of this work of art (and a lot of other work the DePP designers do- and yes, I’m desperately trying to flatter Paddy after the dragon comment :D )- The Quark Wallpaper!
