I don't know where all the talk about leaves and flowers and spring time is coming from; it's absolutely freezing here in DC! We're way below average temps and the Potomac is starting to freeze over in places.
Switched it over to an ice type background that is kinda nice. What does everyone else think? |

I think it's funny we started with a record-high winter season, and are now in a record-low.
Maybe, to reflect this wildly erratic behavior, you should put a picture of a wireless internet device up. |

| To be honest nothing is better - I dont like to see the backgrounds on YWS - it provides nothing only a distraction from the main content area. I think leaving it a sold colour would be more interesting because it generates "white space". |

White space sans the 'white' bit. ^_~
The themes are always amusing - whichever ones: Valentines or otherwise. I picked 'other'. |

| I like the new background, it reminds me of the sea. I'd like to see seasonal backgrounds and anything that looks pretty. |

| I think we should go with a green and black tribal-like background with a green and blue theme. |
