Let's have a look!

Middle one's nice, and the PCB's very pretty. Looks like cobwebs made by spider engineers!

Nice shots madhias. You should upload more keyboard photos like that to your flickr

DT's header is my Flickr!

Yeah, nice pics madhias! I like the DT_Header_01 a lot. The two other sadly interferes a bit too much with the Deskthority logo, imo.

Both Skipass images don't really fit to the DT logo, that's true. I should take it serious and copy the logo to see that it do not crosses letters. But i really like the Bokeh of that PCB.

Hehe, no keyboard porn on my Flickr yet, only 'Urbex' shots. I like yours (already followed)! And the other ones, like that from dubsgalore.

Here's a quick test I was playing with:

Where are those from: a beam spring maybe? The G is nice, unlike Cherry's, but the R is no Helvetica.

Yeah, they're caps off a 3278 keyboard.

Took this as part of a recent project, I think it looks pretty nice:

Testing...
The THORITY part doesn't quite work with the key shine. Oh well, it was worth a try.

Yes, anticipating the transparency is the hard part. Try shifting the crop around a bit.

I like to call this one "PCB by candle-light".

I love this last one!

Nice! What cap sense PCB is that? Not circles like a Topre, but not squares like IBM Model F. Beam spring, perhaps?

It's the Victor 9000 keyboard, Keytronic foam & foil.

Foam and foil is capacitative? Goes to show what little I know…

I'm hoping that one day, one of our electronics whizzes will write up on the wiki how capacitive switches actually work.

Two from my HASRO, not sure which one I like better, but i think I like 1 better

and two more because I was bored

Tee-hee. ^_^

Kirk and Spock may or may not be wearing pants, by the way.

Nicely shot! I had to take a second look to see just what was keyboarding about it this time, though. I like what you're doing but next time: they need to be in a more iconic setting, I think. Still one of the prettier site headers, though!

It's a bit odd, I grant you, but they're entitled to wear pants if they choose. It's a free society.

Might be wearing mankinis.

It is only logical for Vulcans to show off their package, after all. And Kirk hates to be shy.

Just out of curiosity.. Are certain header images set to come up more frequently than others?

I've just been noticing over the past few weeks that this header comes up MUCH more than any of the others.

Nope this is what is rotating each hour:

Five of them are mine. Colour me chuffed!

You've got five? Damn it. I had four going, but my DEC is gone! Gone, I tells you! Now I'm down to three.

Pity, that DEC shot was my favourite. (...and that space invader one I hate is still there to taunt me)
