I picked it up at http://www.interfacelift.com awhile back. There's a whole series with bubbles and colorful lighting called "Color Jive" or something.

InterfaceLIFT is pretty awesome.

Other recommendations would be Skins.be, the PA Wallpaper Dump, and Anime Paper.  Pretty much everything else I've used has ceased updates or took a nose-dive in quality.

Somehow the Eve online shortcut on the desktop seems to fit in with the whole sado-masochistic vibe of the background image.

another good way i've found walls is going to deviantart with a simple 1920x1200 or 2560x1600 search query.

Wallpaper is just a screeshot from X-Plane 9

I should get back to nature, too.  You know, like going to a shop for groceries instead of the computer.  Maybe a condo in the woods that doesn't even have a health club or restaurant attached.  Buy a car with only two cup holders or something. -Signe

I've been into concept art a lot recently, this is just a Mass Effect 2 wallpaper with all the bioware tags cut off.


Has anyone really been far even as decided to use even go want to do look more like?

I still use interfacelift and let them rotate every five minutes. I get bored with the same desktop background.

Maybe after a couple decades of letting them rotate every five minutes, I'll find one I'll stick with. If you want to go for that metaphor.  DRILLING AND MANLINESS

Hello! I has wallpaper. A few things:

1. All things considered, every wallpaper is safe for work.
2. I do not apologize for any animu (headphone girls, Yotsuba&!, etc) found within.
3. Every single wallpaper is 1920x1200. Decrease as you see fit.
4. No Requests! This is every 1920x1200 on my PC that does not have a visible nipple or any revealed poonanny.
5. I will add more as I come across them.

Downloading: Click the image, then click the little disc icon next to the name in the bottom left of the lightbox popup.

I don't know what that means, if it was referring to me, I like art.

Edit: Oh, I see. Yes, I suppose there are a few in there. Had never been to the site. These are just from all over the web. (Also, they only have 60 1920x1200 wallpapers there, need MOAR).

Edit 2: Despite all of that, neither of the wallpapers I am using are in that gallery. Heh, one is for Edgar (my game) and the other is Shannon Sossamon.

I didn't make them. I am art illiterate.

I just gather wallpapers that I like and keep them there for every one. Credit to the original authors.

May I present to you, the world's greatest wallpaper for anyone that works in anything technology related.

Also found in my wallpaper gallery.

It's like finding the holy fucking grail.
