Got bright? I've been making these colorful, kind of psychedelic, kind of '70s wallpapers lately for my deskop, and I thought I would start to share some of them here, since a few of you might be able to use them. →[More:]

Here's today's offering for 1024 dual monitors (note that you may need to set your options to "tile" to get this to spread across both screens), and here's the version for single monitor.

Sorry I didn't have time to make them for different sizes, but on any of the ones I post, if you love it and need a different size let me know, and if I can alter it for you, I will.

Here's a thumbnail so that if it doesn't look like something you would like, you don't need to waste time waiting for it to download to see it:

Whoa. That's cool (and groovy). I like it.

I love it! And I've been needing a better desktop here at work. :) Awesome, taz.

If there's a better soul on the internet, I haven't met her.

I'm loving it as my wallpaper right now. It's definitely groovy, but it also has an Arts and Crafts sensibility about it that I really like. Thanks, taz!

I know, it's never too early for incense.

taz, if you can make hawiian shirt style desktops for dual monitors, that would make you the awsomest. I can only pay you in kisses or praise though.

Capn, how about this?

eeeeeeee! *kisses and praise*

Here's another one, less traditional. I think it turned out really beautiful; Get it, y'all!

Fantastic!
It is making my workday just a little more Tiki AS WE SPEAK!

Not to rub my monitor prowess in people's faces ... but this doesn't tile right on 1280 x 1024 dual monitors!

Yeah... sorry 'bout that. I'm 1024 x 768. :(

I might fix something up for you, matildaben, the next time I make one.

Beautiful! Thanks, taz!
