CGI JOE

I searched for a variety of wallpapers, ones from the 90s were really nice... But then decided to go with the iconic contemporary graphics. I cleaned up the code I did earlier today (see below). Trying to enter the CGI script as a wikiwar competitor on the main page... not working. Looking into how to operate code from within the wiki, don't know :)
