Okay so I have 2 bare walls, and I have no idea what to put on them. Also I don't want to spend more than $40.
Heres some pics (Media'd for size)

Pretty much the above, though if you like art or reading there are some awesome DIY bookshelves and art supply cabinets designs out there.

Or you could wall-mount your computer.
I do like the idea of wall mounting a computer.

Even if it's just a piece of wood, with the computer spread out as flat as you can, with some kind of glass cover over the top.
I might look into doing something like that when I move my computer into the other room.

But obviously have the wiring leading down to the desk.
Well I am pretty horrible at building things. That monkey banana bomb thing is awesome though, where do I buy one? Or would I have to paint it? :smith:

The lights!
I couldn't tolerate that - I had to unplug the display on the front of my case because it was a bright blue light in the corner of my eye ALL THE TIME.
I have a poster folder on my laptop. When I order a new charger I can upload a bunch. I have some classic HL2 posters on my wall.
If you're strapped for cash and want a simple and good-looking way to break up a plain wall, try hanging strips of wallpaper glued to dowel rods at either end.

That's the only picture I could find demonstrating what I mean, but it's not like you have to go pick the flower-pattern wallpaper. In my old room I had a couple strips of plain red paper hung like that, and it served its purpose quite nicely.
Yeah I would vote some Banksy art.
it's easy to stencil and kicks ass
(my girlfriend won't let me put any on our apartment walls because she thinks it's creepy)

Stencil/Spray Paints
The original art is by Banksy;

ANDDDDD!!! you'll be very happy to hear, I just done a google, right now there's a stencil set on eBay :D

"Monkey stencil measures approx. [b]380mm x 280mm[/b], Banana Bomb stencil measures [b]190mm x 140mm[/b], cut from medium heavyweight watercolour paper. You will receive both stencils. Use as a stencil or mount on contrasting background."

Put vinyl sleeves up.
Paint a cool ass image.
Or get an x-acto knife, a big piece of paper, and draw on an image.
(Learn about stenciling first, if you don't you will spend an hour cutting out an image and realize you didn't leave an breaks and you'll just have an outline.)
Write 'Better safe than sorry' all over the walls.
You could put posters.Or paint it checkered so it does not look so bare.
A huge wall mural of vikings killing a dragon.
put the lsd formula on your wall like me

My teacher had the obama version, the FFDP version, and some other one, I gave him this one, so he now has that too. All in his room above his desk.
