Finding wallpapers

[kop316]

While going through the desktop thread, I saw some really neat wallpapers. I was wondering, where do you all go in order to find wallpapers?

[xfile087]

When I want wallpapers I genereally search google images using keywords like "Linux" "Tux" "Wallpaper" etc.

Ditto on interfacelift. They have a really killer photo of Hong Kong at Night (http://interfacelift.com/wallpaper/details.php?id=783).

caedes.net (http://www.caedes.net/) is pretty nice and there's some links on this blog (http://www.joeyinteractive.com/blog/?p=185).

[fuscia]

i get almost all of mine from google image search (usually specifying 'large' in the advanced search), then i use gimp to mess with it until it's ready to be wallpaper.

But you aren't meant to look at THOSE pictures! :-)

That last one is Ayo's site, who did the frozen bubble artwork, and also the avatar that I'm using at the moment.

Once upon a time, I saw a wallpaper of the tux penguin shooting the windows icon accross the screen with a bazooka. Does anyone know where I can find it?

Thanks

How about dual display wallpapers? ;)

[M8M]

Thanks. I found it and installed it. The kids are going to have a hoot tomorrow when they get up and see it! They're all excited about Linux!
