Three New Desktop Wallpapers

Wallpaper. Not the flowery patterned stuff in your Grandma’s bathroom. I’m talking the digital, for your computer, roller coaster variety. I got the hookup. Three new wallpapers for your grubby little hands (and desktops). And it gets better…

In my ongoing quest to deliver items of relevance to Coasterimage.com visitors, I noticed that more and more of you are stopping by with widescreen monitors. (yeah, I’m watching you)

So starting with these new wallpapers I now offer a third download resolution (1440 x 990) that should work quite nicely for you folks leading the widescreen revolution. So be sure to head on over and check out the new wallpaper - I happen to be quite fond of the Mamba image. It’s so colorful and shiny.

In other news it looks like some of our travel plans are coming together. I’ll be getting the travel info online in the schedule section a little later, but right now it looks like we’ll be getting to Indiana Beach to check out their new Steel Hawg coaster early in the season along with standard stops at Kings Island. We’ll also be heading east to sample Hersheypark’s new coaster, Farenheit. And maybe stopping by some old favorites - Knoebels, Dorney Park, Six Flags Great Adventure…things in that direction.

By mid-summer we should be heading south again to invade the brand new Hard Rock Park in Myrtle Beach with copious stops along the way. As fall rolls around there’s a good chance we’ll show up at the usual fall hangouts - Holiday World and Cedar Point.

But it doesn’t stop there in 2008…nuh uh. A week at Walt Disney World in October is practically etched in stone. That’s a much needed return visit - my Disney gallery is so outdated that it’s embarassing. It’ll be nice to update that one. Then there’s been some whispering about a Dollywood stop around Thanksgiving…but you didn’t hear it from me.

After that comes the complete overhaul/updating/cleaning of the website. But that’s a long way off - there’s a ton of parks, coasters and rides to hit in 2008. Play now…work later.
