Diva's downloads

These digital-collages and sketches were all made by myself for presentation on the art forums on the two Lord of the Rings fansites I belong to and that I have adapted for use as wallpaper calendars in association with LotrDreams.com for 2009. With the exception of the images for February, April, August, November and December the remainder are based on actors or images featured in the three Peter Jackson LotR movies and so, for legal purposes, copyright is not asserted by myself and these 7 images are therefore unsuitable for any commercial use whatsoever.
Please DO NOT use your downloads for January, March, May - July, September - October and December in part or in their entirety for any sales or advertising/marketing purposes for commercial gain.

All download images are in quality JPEG format and are all around 100Kb in size - they will take up to 10 seconds to load.
Click on the download image link for the larger image, when it appears right click on the image, then click on the 'Set as Wallpaper' or 'Set as Background' option - when you go back to your Desktop it should have loaded automatically.
