Link 1 is the coolest. It has 'splodies and such

Anti: I think some of you gentleman would choose to apply a gun shaped remedy to any problem or potential problem that presented itself? Your reverance (sic) for firearms is maintained with an almost religious zeal. The mind boggles! it really does...

Me: Naw, we just apply a gun-shaped remedy to those extreme life threatening situations that call for it. All the less urgent problems we're willing to discuss.

Tom Phillips has done a nice job of pulling out an album of "action" photos. 

However, all of those pictures and about 30,000 more are available at:

http://www.af.mil/photos/

One plus is that since these are government photos, they are free, are not copyrighted and can be used without royalties.   I rely heavily on the government websites for memorial day and independence day graphics.

I have seen the Tom Phillips links before, they are very good. Thanks for the Air Force link alfsauve, I too like browsing the Government's sites for good images. I use them as my screensavers.

For my screensaver, I downloaded Google's Photo Screensaver. It works really well, you can have it pull from any folder on your computer that has pictures and it will show them to your prefrence.

Very nice and most were new to me. Thanks.
