I like nice images, usually photographs I made myself or interesting images from the Transmission Gallery which has a great set of transmission wallpapers.

I collect a few in a directory, and there is an easy way to show these on an X background when you use xscreensaver anyway:

$ xscreensaver-getimage -directory background -root

This will select a random image from directory 'background' and display it on the root window.
