HD Wallpaper

Ok so you got your glossy nice big wide screen. It screams for something to show the sheen of that glass, the quality of that plastic and the artist trapped within your materially quivering soul. So now what? Where are these high resolution images that you have been yearning to see come to life on your new desktop or notebook?

Same place as they have always been of course ;-)

Amazing fractal art, very busy and sometimes can be a bother to access. However this is well worthy of your patience!

Two monitors are great, the trick is to use a serriously good image, the right size and set your monitor to "tile" the image. If the tile is the size of the display resolution, it displays just the way nature intended!

Great site for sharing and downloading original art. Somewhat less of a mainstream site as I type, I'm sure that will change very soon!

Love the domain name and this has to be one of the most successful design websites of all time. Simply excellent web development has gone into delivering this site and the artwork by the contributing artists has made this one of the leading contributions to modern art in the past five years.

After seeing some of his work on Flikr, creative directors and lead-designers from the MSX (Now the Microsoft User Experience, when I was a child it was a computer..) design team approached Hamad in an attempt to purchase some of his work. After a period of negotiation and planning, Microsoft commissioned Hamad on a photo-shoot to take pictures to be used in the desktop wallpaper collection of their newest, and highly anticipated, operating system Windows Vista.

Mike Swanson

It say's that Mike is a "Technical Evangelist" and who am I to dissagree? I'm more inclined to say "Asthetic Mastermind" but who is splitting hairs, especially ones this colorful!

All the great walls from all the great movie houses... or something along the lines of that. If movies are the theme of the moment, this is the site.

One of the biggest resources of 3D walls running for eeeeever and a day! A membership based site, similar to Deviantart in that regard if nothing else. Stunning collection of images and well presented member section for a small fee.

When I first found this site, I was glued to my chair and couldn't move for hours. It's what inspired me to write this blog I think...

Four hours later, I've done enough wallpapering for the day. Enjoy!
