No, and right now, I can't see it, because for about a few hours the sun is shining at an angle on my monitor which highlights all the disgusting fingerprints and stuff on the monitor. Seeing it like this, I'm almost embarassed. Cleaning ensues.

Here it is cut out from the actual image used as the background (no window over it):

I brightened it a little (I was trying to increase contrast to try and see the lines and shapes in it, but it didn't really work out. This still helps to show it, so I put it):


There is definitely something there. :P

Can somebody explain to me why this is funny, or at least why I shouldn't delete it?

I still say the formation on mid-left of the mountain looks like a Dragoon. D:
But I see no face.

About the middle of the large angled rock in the bottom middle is a little dark area that sticks out, looks somewhat like a mouth. The tip of that rock points to a little dark area that looks somewhat like an eye, and then next to that is another. In the middle, there is some little dots that make it look like a wierd nose. It also has a brow above the eyes.

It could also be related to everything resembling a face.

I do see the Dragoon! But the face is there too. Maybe they're pals.

DarkenedFantasies -- Probably just didn't care. For example, at some point before release, they've updated the graphics of some of the Protoss buildings (Forge, CyberCore, Citadel, Observatory, Arbiter Tribunal), but instead of properly re-rendering them with edited 3D models, they did crappy copy-paste jobs on the rendered graphics.

Ultraviolet -- I suppose we'll likely never know, but my guess would be that they already saw it operating successfully and there was no monetary incentive to finish the original work. And the dev cycle in old school Blizzard was so hectic, it's possible it just got forgotten about after the original game got released. Plus there's an element of existing MPQ files that were packaged with the original discs becoming outdated if they updated it. And it's not like they remade the original MPQs, they just made new ones for BW specifically

Oh_Man -- so that makes me think maybe the theory they are unfinished is not true and its a deliberate design decision, coz why not finish them wen ur making brood war?
