Amazing wallpapers, especially loved the Homer Simpson eating the Apple logo wallpaper.

Great list, again

great collection!

Don’t forget my wallpapers

A very popular one is ms pacman found at http://www.pokedstudio.com/pacmanwallpaper.htm

cheers

as good as some of those are (love the simpson one) I’ll stick with my boring, plain, neutral grey.

Thanks for featuring my wallpapers, thanks.

I have to confirm the recommendation for:

http://www.vladstudio.com

He has an awesome array of artistic and photographic wallpaper available for free. Or a subscription buys an impressive variety of resolutions (including dual monitor sets), and occasionally even the source files for the wallpapers. Enjoy! [/fanboy]

Really nice selection I’ll pick some :)

Nice post. But
Twitter Wallpaper and Google Wallpaper have the same link (It links to Twitter Wallpaper). Could you please fix this?

Ira, victor, Deck: thank you so much for recommending my website (vladstudio) – it may sound strange but I am going to dedicate myself entirely to drawing wallpapers in nearest future (no outsource design jobs any more) and it will be my only job! I hope to release 2-3 new wallpapers weekly. Thanks again!

And thank you so much for including the Diwali wallpaper! Pleasantly surprised.

This selection is amazing. Thanks guys!

Class action law suit on the way.
SmashingMag addictive; cause of creative industry productivity losses.

Nice wallpapers … gr8 job

As person changes his desktop wallpaper every day this is gold mine 10x ;)

good selection

Amazin backgrounds will definitely make my working days.

Some macro photos (one of them used in Windows Vista).

Great article, however you have a typo in one of your links: “Technology Dekstopnexus” I think you flipped the letters in “Desktop Nexus”.

Nice!

But why showcase photos like the one of the Brooklyn Bridge when even viewing the picture in large size is not permitted by the owner?

The ‘Elemental’ one is a bit of a ripoff of the classic four panel ‘Change of Seasons’ piece by Silveryn from around 2003. Wallpaper mods exist of that one too.

Really good wallpapers.. now i am confused which one to keep as mine ;)

It’s not “stunning” (really), but I use a wallpaper that actually improves my productivity by allowing me to organize my desktop

Yawn.

I would also recommend the featured pictures section on Wikimeda Commons. There are some really good (high resolution) pictures over there that are excellent as a background. For example, this one is on my desktop right now.

I love your wallpapers.
Simply exquisite

great list.

so hot like hell.

lol ^^

You can find more gaming wallpapers at http://www.gamersgallery.com

GREAT!! and surprised… :)

but the Google Wallpaper links are incorrect…

I had to search the page to make sure I didn’t miss it… you really should mention interfacelift.com if you’re going on about all these other wallpaper collections. I’ll say no more – just check it out!

I was just look for some mac type wallpaper the other day, this will save me some time thanks

Thank you for this list. Some really fantastic sources here.

Have you seen http://interfacelift.com/wallpaper/ ?

It has a huge (approx. 145 pages) selection of photographic and designed wallpapers in all resolutions (going up to 2560×1600).

Organized by topic, artist, tags, etc.

Really beautiful images. Can I share some of your images in my site? http://www.ezwebrus.com Works like this should be all over the net for people everywhere to see. They are very inspirational and brighten anyone’s day.
A desktop wallpaper express your state of mind, state of spirit. When your turn your computer on, is always nice to have a nice image to welcome your eyes.

Thanks

AWESOME desktop backgrounds. Keep the good work.
