|
| Children Of The Gods: My first
Stargate wallpaper, though it’s been reworked since it was first created.
I made this for a friend a year before I’d ever seen an episode. The original version had Kowalski instead of Teal'c. Told you I'd never seen an episode LOL! |
| Possession: Children of the Gods--Apophis and Sha’uri. |
| Abydos: Children of the Gods, scenes from Abydos,
framing two tragic losses. |
| Chulak: Again, Children of the Gods. Events on Chulak, focusing
on the conflict between Daniel and Apophis. |
| The Nox: Basic episode wallpaper.
Includes an image showing Daniel stroking Jack’s head ;^) |
| Appearances: As in, "are deceiving."
Features the Nox family, and uses their big surprise as a background. |
| Thor’s Hammer: An episode wallpaper
for this excellent episode, though it didn’t have room to tell the whole
story. We all know what that means ;^) |
| Torment of Tantalus: My only
ToT wallpaper so far, though this is a favorite episode. This centers
on the interactions between pairs--Catherine and Ernest, Jack and Daniel,
and, across the years, the young Ernest and Daniel. |
| Bloodlines: Teal’c’s family
emergency. An early wallpaper. |
| Fire and Water: Basic episode
wallpaper for one of my favorites. This tries to tell the story. |
| Despair: Another Fire and Water wallpaper.
Shows the anguish of each of our team in this fraught episode. |
| Hathor: The "hot" Hathor.
Features one of two exquisite portraits of Hathor (the other being featured
on the "cold" Hathor). |
| Violation: The "cold" Hathor.
This features the two primary assaults Hathor committed--against Daniel
and against Jack. |
| Singularity: This tells the
story of Cassandra. It features some of my favorite images--a lovely
shot of Cassandra taking Teal’c’s hand, some beauties of Sam and Cassandra,
and a delicious shot of the three beauties of the SGC--Janet, Sam and Daniel--all
lined up in a chorus line LOL! |
| First Person-Sam: This was done
in response to a writing challenge on the H/C list. The challenge
was to write a story from the first person perspective. I wanted
to see if I could do a first person wallpaper. |
| Enigma: An episode comp for
one of my very, very favorite episodes. Among other things, it features
a couple of "Oh, wow!" moments for Daniel. |
| Solitudes: A wallpaper showcasing
the two struggles of this episode--Sam and Jack struggling to survive; Daniel
struggling to find a way to bring them home. |
| Beyond the Edge. A Solitudes
wallpaper featuring Sam and Jack fighting against impossible odds.
This contains one of the most beautiful Sam images in my collection. |
| Separation Anxiety: This Solitudes
wallpaper showcases the events back on Earth as Daniel and Teal'c struggle
to find their missing team mates and bring them home. The title is
courtesy of Debby Andrede. |
| There But For the Grace of God: Here's
the wallpaper that MisMatch started out to be--the story of this fine episode.
We've got one surprised Daniel, a confrontational General Jack, a faceoff
between General Jack and Teal'c, and Daniel at work.
|
|
Mis-Match: This started out to be
a general episode wallpaper, but my view of it mutated slightly as I worked
on it. It ended up being four pairs of images--Daniel facing up to
people who are so familiar to him, but are just not quite right.
We've got Daniel and (General) O'Neill, Daniel and Catherine, Daniel and
(Colonel) Hammond, and Daniel and (First Prime) Teal'c. |
|
| In the Serpent’s Lair: A basic
episode wallpaper for this terrific season opener. Of course, it
features a tragic moment in the hallway of a spaceship, and a joyous moment
in the gate room. |
| Prisoners: A wallpaper for the
episode. |
| A Different World: Another Prisoners
wallpaper, featuring Daniel completely out of his element. So far,
this is the only greyscale fannish wallpaper I’ve done--the stark lack of color
seemed to fit the subject. |
| Gamekeeper: An episode comp
which tries to tell the story. This includes one of my favorite pictures--Jack
checking behind the general’s ear LOL! |
| Old Battles: Jack’s tale from
Gamekeeper. |
| Early Losses: Daniel’s story
from Gamekeeper. |
| Need: The basic episode wallpaper.
Includes a terrific picture captured as Daniel and Shyla are strolling
through the trees--just at the moment when he produces that totally unreproducible
sound--adorable! |
| The Man Who Would Be King: From
Need, Daniel’s rise and fall. |
| Incident In A Store Room : A wallpaper
showing one of the most intense sequences in the whole series: Jack
and Daniel in a darkened store room, wrestling with demons.
|
|
Thor's Chariot: This is another episode
that gave us a couple of parallel story lines--Jack and Teal'c with the
native "vikings," trying to defend against Heru'ur, and Daniel, Sam and
Gairwyn seeking out Thor's help. This episode also reminds us that
it was Daniel and Sam who actually met Thor first. |
| Message In a Bottle: Jack in
great stress. This wallpaper includes an amazing Daniel picture,
which has come to be known as "The Eyelashes." The original screen
capture was extremely grainy, and quite dark. After a long time spent
carefully cleaning it up, it looks very good--and out of the background
of grain and darkness popped these incredible eyelashes! Whew, has
that boy got it! |
| Secrets: The first of a new
series of wallpapers for this episode. A general episode wallpaper
for a story with way too many things going on LOL! |
| Secrets: Daniel and Sha'uri:
This was actually the first Secrets wallpaper I made. This is Daniel
and Sha'uri against a background of the pyramid on Abydos. I'm rather proud of this, as I wrestled with absolutely awful screen captures. |
| (Official) Secrets: The second
of the new series for this episode. This one is for Jack. I
called it (Official) Secrets, because that was the kind of secret Jack
was wrestling with. |
| (Family) Secrets: The third
of the new Secrets wallpapers. This one is for the secrets between Sam
and Jacob. The background is courtesy of NASA. |
| (Unbearable) Secrets: The final
of the new series. This is for Daniel's truly devastating secrets. |
| Bane: Not a favorite episode,
but I’m very pleased with this wallpaper. It’s very striking and
dramatic, and it includes probably the most in-character image I’ve yet
seen of our good friend Maybourne ;^) Also includes in image of Daniel
just after he’s been asked to come help the scientist dissect one of the
giant bugs LOL! Definitely a "Who, me?!?" look. |
| The Fifth Race: A favorite episode
and a favorite wallpaper. I feel this does the best job of any I’ve
done at telling the story of the episode. Definitely a Jack/Daniel
episode and wallpaper. |
| Lean On Me: This is another
wallpaper for Fifth Race. The theme is the unexpected and very special
relationship between Daniel and Jack. In this episode, it is Jack
who is uncharacteristically having to lean on Daniel. The quote came
from the Dave Matthews Band: The complete text is, "I’ll lean on
you, and you lean on me, and we’ll be OK." Could be a theme song
for these two men. |
| Serpent’s Song: Another favorite
episode. This is one for which I don’t have a lot of good material,
but I was able to get the two images I needed--Daniel as he is talking to
Apophis, and Daniel as he is talking to Apophis’s host. This was
a wonderful episode for Daniel. |
| Goa’uld of Contention: This
is another Serpent’s Song wallpaper, this time featuring the multi-directional
tug of war over the disposition of Apophis. It includes the scariest
picture I’ve yet seen of our mild archaeologist. |
| Measure of a Man: Yet another
for Serpent’s Song. This revisits one of the themes included in the
original SS wallpaper--the interactions between Daniel and Apophis/Apophis’s
host. It’s also a wallpaper that highlights the fine acting talents
of Michael Shanks. |
| Holiday: This wallpaper exists
in two forms--one with gold framing and picture borders, the other with
red. I couldn’t decide which I liked best, so both are on the wallpaper
page. A real tour de force for Michael Shanks. He’s on this
wallpaper four times--as Daniel, as Machello, as Machello in Daniel, and
as Jack in Daniel--and it’s crystal clear exactly which he is in each image.
Terrific actor. |
| One False Step: A wonderful
episode, and I love the two wallpapers I did for it. This is the
episode wallpaper. Among other things, it includes a great image
of Daniel getting his face painted LOL! |
| Life Lesson #32: Talk to Your
Plants! I begged and groveled to several people in order to get the
material for this one. The result is that I’ve got a plump little
file of a bunch of those "bookends" images--all mine LOL! This wallpaper
is all about that little tiff between Jack and Daniel, and about the aftermath
in the Infirmary. What a pair! |
| Do We Know These Guys? 1969:
What can I say? |
|
| Jaffa Joke: This episode (Seth) introduced
us to a new side of our stoic Jaffa. Who could have predicted this? |
| Lessons: For the episode Learning
Curve. This highlights the various lessons learned in this episode. |
| Deadman Switch: Oh, did I obsess
over this episode! Absolutely loved it. This is the general
episode wallpaper, featuring the wonderful Aris Boch, and also Daniel bumping
his pretty nose on the force field LOL! I'll never understand why they never brought Boch back. |
| A Day’s Rations: Deadman Switch
again. Daniel was just too incredibly cute in this episode.
This is actually a wallpaper for him (as is the next one). The title
comes from the tease Aris Boch inflicted on poor Daniel. As if the
boy didn’t have enough self image problems all on his own! |
| Wh...what? Another Daniel/Deadman
Switch wallpaper--actually the first I did. I just couldn’t resist
the flock of goofy expressions that flitted across that adorable face. |
| Partners: Again, Deadman Switch.
This episode rather uncharacteristically gave us some Jack/Daniel partnership. |
| Legacy: A very favorite episode.
In fact, third season has a lot of those. This general wallpaper
tells us the terrible story of the episode. |
| Beyond My Control: Legacy, again--centered
on Daniel’s plight. |
| Fair Game: Not a favorite episode,
though I’m fascinated by a couple of the Goa’uld it introduced, and hope
they bring them back. My favorite image here is Daniel restraining
Teal’c with nothing more than a gentle hand on his chest. |
| Forever In A Day: What can be
said about this episode? I tried to tell some of what was going on,
yet also convey the notion that everything happened in a split second,
inside Daniel’s head. |
| Keep Me In Your Dreams: This
is a bittersweet farewell for Daniel and Sha’uri. Forever In A Day,
of course. |
| Past and Present: An episode
I really liked. This episode comp focuses on pairs--Daniel and Kira,
Kira and Linnea, Jack and Sam, Jack and Daniel, Daniel and Teal’c. |
| Between Darkness and Light:
Past and Present, again, this time zeroing in on the relationship between
Daniel and Kira, from that first gentle flirting scene in the library,
through the scene where Daniel places himself between Jack’s gun and Kira’s
poisonous vials, and to the sad moment when he lets her go through the
gate. Poor baby. |
| Jolinar’s Memories: A general
comp for this episode. My favorite shot here is the brother/sister
image of Daniel and Sam. |
| On the Rack: A Jolinar’s Memories
wallpaper for Sam, highlighting her extremely stressful experiences during
this episode, and her great strength in such a terrible situation. |
| Strength and Wisdom: This is
for the episode Pretense, but it’s a Daniel-Jack wallpaper. The title
comes from Skaara’s lines. He says, "O’Neill is strong; Daniel is
wise." |
| Urgo: I loved this episode.
It was screamingly funny, and I adore goofy old Dom DeLuise. This
is a general wallpaper for the episode. Best image, Daniel and Jack
nose to nose over the microphone ;^) |
| Woof?! Another Urgo wallpaper,
highlighting my very favorite moment. While Urgo is here, this is
a Daniel-Jack wallpaper LOL! |
| Grave Danger: This honors that
other hilarious scene in Urgo LOL! The title comes from Jack’s line,
"Apparently, Sir, all desserts on base are in grave danger." |
| A Hundred Days: An episode wallpaper chronicling Jack’s sojourn. All of the team appear, though Teal’c’s image
is a bit strange. |
| Warrior’s Heart: This is a pastorale
for Jack and his lady. A Hundred Days. |
| Rain of Fire: A single image
wallpaper. I’d intended to use this image as a background for a collage,
but once I’d gotten it worked up I couldn’t stand to cover it up. |
| Shades of Grey: This is a difficult
episode for a variety of reasons. I had and have a strong emotional reaction
to the events in the story, and it was very difficult to say everything
that I consider important. Teal'c is representing the team from that first
briefing, opposing a non-repentant Jack. Daniel painfully represents
the scene in Jack's house. And we have Maybourne the slug, and the confrontation
between Jack and Makepeace. Excuse the British spelling of that pale black color on both of these wallpapers LOL! And no, I'm not British. Just confused ;^) |
| Beyond Price: A tense one for
Jack and Daniel. This one features something precious that Jack risked
losing. This is a rare wallpaper because after I sent it to my list,
I made a major change as a result of a feedback suggestion from Rowan.
Thanks, Row, you were right. |
| New Ground: This is the general
episode wallpaper, showing us the beginning and the end, a fine villain,
and Our Team in strife. Oh, and Daniel's new little buddy |
| Beyond the Call: Daniel between
a rock and a hard place. This wallpaper highlights the pressure brought
to bear on our archaeologist in an attempt to persuade him to reveal the
presence of Teal'c. Hang in there, Danny. |
| Bite Me!: Jack responds to a
tight situation in typical manner--by mouthing off. |
| Maternal Instinct: Another episode
I really loved. This one tells the story, centered around the child. |
| Here, No Bull Can Hide:
A paean to Jack’s encounter with the truly enigmatic monk LOL! I
also got to sneak in a great shot of Daniel which I couldn’t fit into the
MI episode wallpaper. |
| Not Nice! Maternal Instinct,
again. A wallpaper in honor of Mother Nature, someone, as Daniel
tells Jack, you really don’t want to fool with. LOL! Took me
a couple of moments to get it when I watched this for the first time. |
| Letting Go: A fourth wallpaper
for Maternal Instinct. Daniel, realizing that he needs to do the
right thing by that baby, even if it is his last physical link to Sha’uri.
|
|
Shoes: This one is for the fetishists
among us LOL! Those who are entranced by the bare toes of TWTID. It's yet
another for Maternal Instinct, covering just a few seconds of the action.
Here you've got them, folks--those cute little bare feet. |
| Crystal Skull: Just my current
very favorite episode. This tells the story. And I managed
to get my hands on my very favorite instant in the episode--Janet’s face
when Nick sasses Jack LOL! |
| Grampa: Crystal Skull, again.
Yet another one for Daniel, focusing on the lack of things like loving
grandfathers in his life. Check out the image in the lower right corner--what
grandfather could resist that face? |
| Oh, Yeah, By the Way... Daniel,
making adorable faces as he tells his team mates--who can’t see or hear
him--that his grandfather isn’t quite your normal kind of ancestor. |
| Nemesis Jack: This is another
single image wallpaper. So far, I don’t much like this episode, but
as I was screening images looking for something someone had requested,
I stumbled across this stunning image of Jack. |
| Nemesis Teal’c: Another single
image wallpaper from Nemesis, featuring Teal’c’s face through the faceplate
of the spacesuit, with Jack reflected on the faceplate. |
| Nemesis Daniel: Here we have
a slightly green around the edges Daniel, the team member left behind because
of an impolite body part. This is a very rare wallpaper--a special
request. Don't get any ideas... |
| Nemesis Sam: Completing our
winning hand, here’s the lovely Major Doctor Carter. |
| Left Behind: Another wallpaper
featuring a stunning image from this episode. Daniel is featured,
contemplating his team in strife without him. |
|
| Small Victories: This is a general
wallpaper for a complicated episode. We have the beginning, two middles
and the end. |
| Upgrades: This is a general wallpaper. |
| On The Tiles: Here are our
intrepid trio, under the influence, indulging themselves in a bit of AWOL
activity. Thanks, Lori, for confirming that "On the Tiles" actually means
what I thought it did ;^) |
| Window of Opportunity: Here's the
general episode wallpaper for Window of Opportunity. Frankly, I gave
up on trying to tell the story with this one LOL! I just chose
a variety of my favorite images. Top honors go to Teal'c with that
Thing stuck in his mouth LOL! I think he's lucky Janet didn't try
to stick it somewhere else. |
| No Consequences...? Two guys indulging in any naughtiness they can think up--because they know
they won't have to pay the piper ;^) Window of Opportunity. |
| Did I Miss Something...?:The third of the four WOO wallpapers I have planned. This one stars what I swear is the most expressive face
in all of television. Here's our befuddled archaeologist. |
| (Even *Very* Good) Boys Will Be Boys:
This is Teal'c's WOO wallpaper. Please forgive me for reusing that
image with the thermometer--absolutely could not resist. It makes
me laugh every time I look at it. |
| Plot in a Box--The First Ones:
This is something special. It isn't really my work. Well, I made
the wallpaper, but the image strips were created by Cathy, who has been
supplying my bottomless craving for more and more images. I was
so delighted with these that I made them into a wallpaper. She calls this
"Plot in a Box," and you'll see why ;^) Many thanks to Cathy for (1) creating
them in the first place, (2) sharing them with me and (3) being willing
to let me share them with you. |
| The First Ones: This one chronicles
Daniel's trials and tribulations--from first encounter, through rough handling,
past dinner with a friend, and finally to rescue by a Jack who, at least
in this episode, remembered that he was supposed to take care of his team. |
| Marked for Death: This is the second
of the First Ones wallpapers. Here we see Daniel's situation at its most
desperate. |
| Life Lesson # 27: It's been a long
time since our last Life Lesson, so Daniel is here to demonstrate a new
one for us. (Why is it that it's always Daniel who demonstrates
these little faux pas?) Here Daniel and his buddy teach us:
Don't Play with your Food! Thanks to Lori Grey for the idea for this one. First Ones, of course. |
| Plot in a Box--Scorched Earth: Another nifty plot synopsis from Cathy. She really winkles the meat out
of the nut LOL! Again, I did nothing except adjust the light and slap on
a background and lettering--the real work was Cathy's. And she's obviously brilliant.
|
|
The Curse: This first one is the
general episode wallpaper starring, of course, our eyeable archaeologist
and his stunning old friend/new foe. Boy, does that man clean up
nice ;^)
|
|
Osiris (The Curse): This is a single
image wallpaper featuring the magnificent Sarah/Osiris. The photography
in some parts of this episode was simply stunning. |
|
| Plot in a Box--Enemies: Again, Cathy brilliantly gives us the core of this episode. This time she focuses on lessons to be learned. As in all of the PiaB wallpapers, the real work on this one was Cathy's, not mine. |
