Need suggestions for Desktop

karlizeth's picture

karlizeth — Mon, 08/11/2008 - 08:33

I finally have a nice new monitor at work and would like some suggestions for some work-friendly desktop wallpaper.  Widescreen resolution preferred.  I remember quite some time ago (but couldn't find it in a site search) a few people saying they had dynamic desktops by getting feeds from like astronomy or science websites.  Any suggestions?

I use this amazing site to find all my wallpapers:
http://interfacelift.com/wallpaper_beta/downloads/date/widescreen/1440x900/

You can sort it to show only widescreen wallpapers in the resolution you want! I actually made my own wallpaper by editing two I found at that site into one.

Those "wallpaper feed"

Dufe — Mon, 08/11/2008 - 08:43

Those "wallpaper feed" websites usually have rather buggy/memory hogging clients.  We used to fix alot of rather odd computer issues by simply uninstalling it.  That was 5+ years ago, so I guess try it out and see if they've gotten any better.  I know the most popular one back then was called Webshots.
