Problem - 1280x768 resolution

I have a HP pavilion laptop (I know, I made a mistake when I bought it). Anyway, the resolution is 1280x768, and frankly, I'm getting sick of it. I've never come across a wallpaper that actually fit, and cropping all of them and losing half of the walls is bothering me. I doubt anyone will listen, but when you guys release walls, could you go to the trouble of adding a 1280x768 one in the pack? Surely there are some other people running the same resolution.

Thanks,

Reed

(also, 1920x1200 is a close ratio, so you might want to download desktop pictures in that resolution )

1280x768 is quite unheard of on my part...

Wow, HP really knows how to pick obscure ratios, don't they?

BTW, if you don't have the Safe search checked in Google, definitely NSFW on that link Lou.

it happen the same thing to me when I switch years ago to a laptop with a widescreen resolution (1280x800) back then (2003) I had the same problem. The software that helped me (and still does) was irfanview ( http://www.irfanview.com), this app has a really cool feature, you can resize (Ctrl+R) the picture to the resolution you like and you don't need to save the file for that, then when it's resized (1280xwhatever) you select "set as background centered" (Ctrl+Shift+c) or tiled (Ctrl+Shift+t) and that works for most of the walls, after that you close irfanview, the wall remains in it's original resolution. When the wall doesn't look right tiled or centered I modify it using Photoshop.

Photoshop is everyone's best friend... give it a try

Does this look like a General Discussion subject to you? It doesn't to me

Call me a cranky geek...

caedes.net has TONS of wallpapers in that size.

I have a monitor on my older computer that's that size, and I use some of those walls.

thanks guys - However, I know how to change the resolutions, and crop them, and whatnot, It's just a pain. We all know how long photoshop takes to open up. And, you lose portions of the walls no matter what.

@sean.fletcher - thanks

@austin123 - thanks as well

@Louie - thanks
