I think these three are my most favorite ones yet. Cynthia rocked August yo! To save as your desktop wallpaper just click on the picture you want, right click and save as a desktop wallpaper. Please let us know which one you like the best. We are thinking of possibly making a real calendar for 2008 so it helps us see what everyone likes. Thank you! I’ll put links to the original pictures too.
Happy August my friends!

THANK YOU so much for sharing these! I lovelovelove them, I usually pick one for home and one for work. This month I’m picking the same one for both of my computers….it’s “Three is the magic number.” Love it. Thanks again!
Thanks for brightening my day - these are terrific!
I’m so glad you posted these! I was going into withdrawals now that July is over. These are the best wallpaper images ever!! Thanks so much!
I love all of them, but I picked the Sunflower! Thanks for sharing these.
The sunflower is my fav, but they are all gorgeous!
I picked 3 is the magic number. I love these and enjoy choosing them every month. The calender is also really helpful, I refer to it all of the time LOL
Thanks so much for supplying them : )

I love all of these - thanks so much for posting them every month! It was especially hard to choose this time around, but I went with the sunflowers.
They are MY FAVS TOO!!
I like the yarns one
Very pretty! Happy August to you too! My “baby boy” turns sixteen this month. ARGH!
have a great time on your vacay!! I just got home from one, and need a vacation from my vacation. Is your finger/hand better? YEOWCH! Thanks for the beautiful backgrounds!
They’re all so beautiful, it’s hard to choose! My work computer is getting the sunflower one and my laptop is getting the three is the magic number one. I may have to rotate them a few times this month! Thanks for making my work a little more fun!
Thanks so much for sharing these with us. I picked 3 is the magic number. As a knitter I guess I should pick the yarn but I always love your flower pics.
Hi Scout!
Thanks for yet another batch of fantastic wallpapers. I choose “3 is the magic number” for my work since I have lots of clutter on my desk top & the one with lots of yarn in it for my laptop because well… I like yarn!
Oh, nice! I took “been workin’ it today”.
Love them all! I put up the “3 is the Magic Number” on my desktop
i choose the purple coneflower! looks like my garden, except no weeds!
thanks. so far the pool from june has been my favorite. that was the first wallpaper i downloaded from you. i’ve really been enjoying your photos.
So sad, no flickr at work, so no pretty desktop there.
I like the one with the black background and the purple flowers the best. Thanks for posting these!
Oh, just figured out I could get them at Cynthia’s blog. Yay!
they all totally rock! i’m downloading the coneflower (”three is the magic number”), though. and you know what? i’m really sad to dump my zuluknitty wallpaper from July. a “real” calendar would be totally awesome…
I love all of them but I of course picked the yarns. Thank you so much for sharing your wonderful pics and thank you Cynthia for putting these together.
I like 3 is the magic number the best but all of them are fantastic. I would totally love a 2008 calendar. What a great idea!
I like the first one but I LOVE the brushes on no. 2.
I’m torn, seriously. I think I’ll go with the yarns one. A calendar would be wonderful! I tend to keep a pic of my daughter as my desktop, but since it’s a skiing photo, maybe I’ll do a calendar for a month.
i put the sunflower on my work computer & 3 is the magic # on my laptop @ home. I love them all, though.
I’m a sucker for those pretty yarn shots.
They are all so lovely. It has to be three is the magic number though.
Thank You! 3 is the magic number for me…I’m a mom of 3.
Thanks, thanks, thanks!! I so enjoyed my July calendar and was really looking forward to August.
I chose the sunflower, thought my daugther would enjoy it.
I picked the first one, but they’re all great. I look forward to your pics now!
as usual, all are GREAT but I’m picking the first one……… How about something with doggies or some of those fantstic sky shots you get for Sept?
That was really really hard, but I think I like the coneflower one the best.
Yay, August is my favorite month!
Absolutely love and appreciate these! I look forward to the new ones each month.
very nice ladies! the top is my fave :o)
i picked the top one…something about the black background really did it for me - but they’re all wonderful!
I went with the sunflower as it is my fav flower and I need some lightness on my desktop.
I chose 3 is the magic number, too–I also love the black background–but I still miss my June pool!
Thanks so much, Scout.
The first one is awesome. Love the swirly bits.
Three is the magic number - love the flowers, the little curlies, and the black background. yay!
I love all three of them but the Sunflower one is my fav of the three. Thanks to both of you for putting this stuff together for us.
All of them are sooooooooo pretty. Love the Three is the magic number, it now resides on my desk top. Thank You!
I’m going with the echinacea this month. Thanks so much for doing these — I love them!
I love them all… but the 3 is the magic number most. I will probably change around during the month, they are all so fab.
Thank you!!!
Thanks so much for doing these, I love them! I went with the coneflowers - 3 is the magic number!!!
The first one is definitely my favorite. I love the simplicity of it, and echinacea is such a lovely flower. Makes me anxious for the orange one I have to rebloom.
I almost can’t wait to get to work in the morning to brighten up my desktop! Of course I can’t wait to leave tomorrow either because then I’m headed to see the Harlot!
I also picked Three is the Magic Number. Very nice!
I love them all, but chose the purple coneflowers. Thank you!
Love them!
However, I am an idiot and accidentally saved it as a desktop item and now I can’t get it off. Any suggestions?
I picked the yarn (as always) I LOVE your calendars and was hoping for a new one for August, but I was afraid with your injured finger it might be too much trouble. Thanks for the beautiful desktop! I better go email my sister so she can use one, it’s so pretty - but also very useful.
I love them all - I’m leaning towards the sunflower though - reminds me of August
Oh, the sunflower one is definitely my favorite. I like the drying yarn as well, but the sunflower is just perfect. I need the bright and cheery this month, and this definitely fits the bill!
i also went for the first one…very cute!
Love all three, but am using 3 is the magic number. Love the cone flowers. Thank you for sharing.
These are wonderful. Thanks for sharing. I downloaded JUly’s and now August’s to my computer at work and it really gives me something to look forward to when I minimize my programs. Plus, it just makes my workstation look nice to have such a nice calendar! Thanks!!
Thank you! I bin workin’ it lately too so I chose bin workin’ it today.
Fabulous! I’m having a hard time choosing - I’ll just have to rotate them through the month.
They are all gorgeous.I picked the echinacea trio.Three is the best number for everthing.Flowers,kids, dogs whatever…
I picked all 3, I have it set to change every 30 minutes hehehe. Unfortunatly it doesn’t fit my screen resolution and gets all stretched out funny if I set it to fill so I have the picture in the middle with a pretty pale lime border around it lol…
I love it, I is now my wall paper.
Thanks
I went for the first shot. Love it as always. Have a great vacation!!!
Love your calendars! I chose the three purple coneflowers. Hard to decide though, liked em all!
I chose the yarns one. Not only are the yarns gorgeous, I really like the curliques at the bottom left. It adds an extra layer of texture and is a nice contrast to the vertical lines of the yarn. I also like the contrast of the circles against the straight lines of the yarn.
Thanks so much!
These are so wonderful - thank you! I chose the yarns, although I’ve downloaded them all and may very well rotate throughout the month.
Hmm, yarn or purpley-pink flower. To hard to chose just one.
I have echinacea/purple coneflowers in my yard and hence on my blog, too…so I went and picked the picture of the yarn. Your yarn? Gorgeous, gorgeous. Thanks so much.
Thanks, I love all of them. I selected the top two, one for work and one for the home computer.
I liked them all. I picked the Purple Cone Flower for work.
Thank you.
They’re all wonderful!! I like the pick daisies best.
It took me this long to finally put one of your calanders on my desktop. Sigh. Do you by anny chance have a higher res of the purple comeflowers? I fill my monitor and could use a larger one. PS - have a moving date, Sept 21!
Just found this a few days ago and CANNOT wait for September.
