In the desktop thread, ive seen alot of people requesting both my wallpapers, and other people's wallpapers. I know that technically, this thread should be going in the Art & Design section, but it might be good to keep it here instead since there seems to be alot more traffic coming through here(and traffic for the desktop threads).

So, I deem this thread open for business!

A wallpaper pack you say? What does this consist of?
A wallpaper pack should consist of images suitable for any range of common resolutions on a monitor, anything from 800x600 to 2560×1600(or above!) . Just make sure that you keep the dimensions to those specific parameters, other dimensions look distorted, and just don't quite cut it.

Well awesome! Now, how can I get these wallpapers out of this file?
Simply use the system archiver tool(you may have to install the RAR tool) and unrar the walls to a specified folder. Then preview and choose them from the background selection screen

What can I do if I want to upload my own wallpaper pack?
Simply put your favorite wallpapers into a archive you create and upload to any sharing sites. Below I have included a list of commonly used sites.

http://rapidshare.com
http://megaupload.com
http://megashares.com
http://yousendit.com

That's it! I hope we get a large collection of wallpapers started here, it would be great for anybody just starting off their wallpaper collection, or just someone looking for something interesting.

Get to it! :popcorn:

My wallpaper collection: http://rapidshare.com/files/81279000/wallpapers.rar.html (152 files, 69MB) (mostly widescreen 1200x800,1400x900,1600x1200. some 1280x1024)

Could you also label your archive, letting us knwo the resolutions we could find inside? I'd rather not download a 100MB archive with a bunch of 1024x768 wallpapers.
