I'm having a hard-as-fuck time trying to find some good 2880x900 wallpapers...anyone know where there's a good selection?

Obviously since I'm posting in the photography section I'm after photography-orientated ones. I'd prefer them to be pretty vibrant - rainforests, etc?

Thanks.

torrents.

ON a better note, what program do you use to do this? and does it extend your toolbar?

have you tried google images?

google wallpaper (or whatever) with the exact dimensions set to 2880x900 and you may find something... ie, below.

Nah I haven't sorted out the extended toolbar yet Corbin, but there are a few programs out there that do it. To get the wallpaper itself to stretch you set it to 'tile' instead of stretch, fill, etc. Windows itself can handle the monitor setup.

Didn't even think of using Google Images, was just using Google to find wallpaper websites lol, ty.

I use a 3rd party program called "DisplayFusion" which I... ahem... 'rented' from the internet. Gives you a lot of control over multi-screen desktops. Handy for different images on different screens without needing to use active desktops.

it's pretty good, it will only return images of that exact size.
good for phone wallpaper, etc too.

TY! Just rented my copy then, it appears to not be recognising that I have rented it though... Will have to sort that out haha.

Ideally I'd like all the taskbar window buttons to only be on my main screen (left) and then the clock and taskbar icons to be on the second screen (right) - can you do this with DisplayFusion?

PS. Couldn't find a good rainforest-y one, but then I found this...

*fap*

A lot of the ones I'm finding seem to be resized ones meaning they're incredibly shit quality. :( If this (http://jootix.com/view/2158/Yakushima-yakushima-forest-island-2880x900.html) was good quality it'd be perfect...sigh.

Thanks for the help guys!

Yup, that's where most of the good ones from Google Images were pulled from - good site.
