I did mean have the picture appear when the screen saver activates. And 
as a contrast to the rest of the image. Also make the grapes 
photorealistic with a static lens flair. I don't know if it would work 
but I can see it in my minds eye. Just a bit surrealistic.

I have no concerns. It is just my "wrong side of the tracks" mindset. :)

 From my understanding Americans don't use the "C" word as a swear word. 
In the UK we do. But Shakespeare says it better than I do, in Twelfth 
Night (Act 2 Scene 5)

MALVOLIO
(picking up the letter) My goodness, this is my lady’s handwriting.

These are her C’s, her U’s and her T’s, and that’s how she makes her big 
P’s. It’s definitely her handwriting, no doubt about it.


Yes, you can get away with anything by blaming it on Shakespeare. ;-)
