This collection is nothing more than a sampling of the pictures I took on my spring breaks. (All alcohol-related images have been omitted. Sorry.) I’ve also included a couple of pictures from my alma mater, Miami University in Oxford, Ohio. I would direct you to my web page there, but they have recently removed it due to the successful completion of my career there. They still have their own web page, though: http://www.muohio.edu
This collection contains no pictures of Florida; I never spent a spring break there. There is more to this country than beaches and warm weather, and I tried to see as much of it as possible. (I’m not anti-Florida, by the way...I lived there for almost 18 years.) I hope that most college students have at least heard of all the places I’ve visited.
Anyway, these JPEGs are primarily intended for use as, yes, desktop pictures. I’ve tested them on a Quadra 610 (on System 7.1), a Workgroup Server 9150/120 (on System 7.5.3), and a PowerBook 5300 (on both System 7.5.5 and Mac OS 8) using a variety of utilities. They work well with Décor 3.04 and the Desktop Pictures control panel in Mac OS 8; they don’t look quite as nice under DeskPicture 4.5, but that’s just as well...I recommend the first two, anyway. It goes without saying that they look extremely nice in thousands or millions of colors, but they don’t look too bad under the 16 grays of my PowerBook. (Neither do the pictures included with OS 8...I have no idea what those look like in color!)
The European edition will be available as soon as I accumulate enough shareware money to fly there.
Seriously, though, I expect no financial compensation for this collection; it is freeware, but not public domain. I retain all rights, and I ask that you use these pictures as they were intended to be used. (“Look where we went last summer!” is not an intended use.) If you like them, feel free to send me e-mail, software, a car that works, etc. Thanks for downloading them!
