Desktop Wallpaper Sharing Thread
Got wallpapers you really like that you think others will to? This is the thread you can post in to share your wallpapers that either you've made or others have.
REQUIREMENTS:
- Do not post images larger than 800px at the longest side
- If you didn't' make the wallpaper, link back to where you found it
- If you did make the wallpaper, ensure you make a couple of sizes available (1280x800, 1680x1050, 1440x990, 1920x1200 and 2560x1600 are the resolutions of current Mac displays).

I've made close to 50 wallpapers freely available in a whole range of sizes (widescreen and traditional aspect ratios), at · Visual Succulence · Free Desktops ·
Help yourselves 
(if you see one you like, feel free to let me know)

If anyone here is like me and loves simplicity, perhaps go for the Mac start up wallpaper. I just made it in Photoshop.
Full Size - 2560x1600

To steal an idea from a comment on The Late Show some years ago now..
Someone should make a wallpaper that embodies Australia, like a bum with a fist coming out of it....

It's as it sounds literally...

There was an awesome television program called The Late Show - and they did some box pops out on the street asking for opinions on a new Australian flag. Some dude said "We should have a flag that has a picture of a bum, with a fist through it - that's what I think of Australia".
It was hilarious  |
