Here's my desktop, recently cleaned it up a bit so it wasn't just an entire desktop full of useless shit I never got around to deleting.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

I usually cycle through a series of historic wallpapers I have, whenever I get bored of my current one.
Hrm, I wonder what's in the "NOT PORN" folder... ;D
Definitely a 401k plan and three images of Tiger Woods playing the trumbone at different angles.

If it were me, it would be a bunch of horrific shock images with misleading file names.

Well whatever it is, it's clearly not porn.

Well, you do have a busy life, what with keeping tabs on wild, rough-and-tumble forum members while sorting out the drama between your twenty two inner lesbians.
Your drunk posts continue to baffle me.

No other laptop or (usable)display has the PPI of my laptop.  Until other manufacturers begin using displays with over 200ppi, I'll stick with Apple.  I'm never going back to ~100ppi displays again.

Just because it has a better screen doesn't mean you have to stick to what it came with ;)

It's known as the Oppai-Kaiju effect. The islands of Japan generate a sort anti-gravity field, which allows breasts to behave as if in microgravity. It's also what allows Godzilla and friends to become 50 stories tall, and lets ninjas run up the side of a skyscraper.

I can't wait until higher density displays like that become more standard, and extend to desktops.  I want my 30-inch to be 5120x3200.

Maybe people should love for the sake of loving, and not with all of these optimization conditions.

...But there aren't any wallpapers for that kind of size. Unless you count pictures of space and a potion of the absurd_res tagged pictures in boorus.

Yeah, wallpapers would be almost exclusively photography... for a while.  Artists would catch up.

There's also the option of going with a minimalistic wallpaper that shares a background color with (heh) your background. But yes, some of the absurd_res tagged images on Konachan and such would probably be enough as is. Artists be crazy.  :P

Yeah, I have a few of those.  Woot shirts are actually really good for that option.  My current avatar is among the couple dozen I've saved for that purpose.  This is also one of the reasons I use Wallpaper Master.  It automatically recognizes the most dominant color in an image, and sets the desktop background to match if the image doesn't match my resolution.
