Hi everyone... I would appreciate it a lot if you guys (and girls) would kindly post links to site you know of with 1680 x 1050 res wallpapers... just got my Dell 8600 on which the only acceptably viewable resolution would be 1680 x 1050. Anything else and everything else gets all squashed up. Thanks!
P.S. I've covered DeviantArt already.
Doubt you'll find any - that's a very odd resolution. Most resolutions (eg: 1024x768, 1600x1200) are a 4:3 ratio, that resolution is 4.6:3. Any idea what graphics card is in there? Just interested because I've never seen a card that will even give you an option for that resolution...

Hmm that is a very odd res... wouldn't it be acceptable to just resize a 1600 x 1200 wallpaper?

Thanks a bunch.
I Googled it and only came up with InterfaceLift. Couldn't find many wallpapers with such a res though. Thanks!

I could, but it would make the wallpapers look a little odd and squashed.
Was hoping to find a kindred soul somewhere. Heh.

No, sadly 1600x1200 isn't acceptable. We're talking widescreen resolution and simply resizing a normal wallpaper doesn't work at all (jagged, stretched, etc, not just pixelated)
Ahh widescreen ... I kinda forgot that new monitors have new ratios now

PS: your sig is 600x100, too big
Well... DeviantArt had a couple of nice ones... but I was kinda hoping that the gurus of AquaSoft would have even better ones.
Sorry about the siggy thing. Removed.
