This high resolution picture of the Spiral Galaxy M81 makes an incredible desktop background. It's so beautiful, it makes me want to minimize all my windows and just pretend I was in a spacecraft looking out a portal.

Hi Graham,
I believe you will enjoy NASA's Astronomy Picture of the Day website:
http://antwrp.gsfc.nasa.gov/apod/astropix.html
I think you will also have fun browsing the images in their archive (at the bottom of the main webpage) for many beautiful pictures of galaxies and many other related pictures from space.
Enjoy,
Michael
