Some widescreen wallpapers now please…
This looks amazing Geek. Where do you get them from?
Thanks,
WOW these are amazing!!
Thank You Geek.
Thank our new intern Daniel, who found them and put together this post for everybody =)
HOW DARE YOU NOT MENTION digitalblasphemy? i would like to call you a blasphemer but that wouldn’t be appropriate. a simple apology and an acknowledgement that though these guys rock, digitalblasphemey pwns them TOTALLY.
I think the next big set of wallpapers should focus around space.
Thanks! :)
Hey do you guys have this in a zip or something so we can download all of the pictures or something like that?
Great post thanks
While a little over-the-top, I think Jake has a point about digitalblasphemy – some beautiful wallpapers to be found there
@jake
Yes, they are really great… but I didn’t think they were free, at least not for the premium, high-res wallpaper. In any case, this is just the first of many upcoming posts around desktop customization, so there will be something for everybody.
Thanks for the feedback Jake. I will definitely try to find some free wallpapers from digitialblasphemy for future roundups.
These are gorgeous – really like the one of the tree in a bubble – beautiful!!
These are great. Thanks.
I had a 4 monitor setup at work. I can never find wallpaper where the edges match so that the images appear continuous across all 4 screens. Difficulty: it has to be at least semi-professional looking. Any suggestions?
mea culpa my bad. last time i was at digitalblasphemy i was so spoilt for choice i never picked anything as such never realised they cost money. :) however they are worth a glance. as someone who uses two monitors, i feel i must use something other than the trust mario bros wallpaper
Hi Geek, lovely wallpapers. Can we have some more alien wallpaper please?
None of these look like they’re actual wallpapers. Just pictures from the digital-art section of dA.
Disappointing because they look nice.
Great wallpapers.Can i catch few for my blog if you don’t mind?
I agreee with hatbocs..
There’s a difference between nice graphic and a wallpaper. The size of wallpaper image should match the resolution of the desktop (1024×768, 1440×900 etc.), or it will be stretched (and look non proportional, or blurry if the image too small), or leave a blank space (usually black) on top/bottom or left/right.
A good example where you can find wallpaper that fits you desktop resolution is: http://interfacelift.com
Beats anything that windows gives you for “stock”. Very cool collection.
FROZEN HEART IS SIMPLY AWESOME…!

The 7th one makes me think of Gungans. Am I alone on this one?
