I just got a new laptop for my birthday, and i'm trying to find some new cool wallpapers for it. do you have any websites or suggestions when looking for wallpapers. my computer has a windows vista operating system, if that helps. where do you get your backgrounds from?

I always make my own wall paper. I use paint and crop together pics I like - family pics, icons, etc. It's more original that way... mostly because I can't find anything that I really like.

That's one of my favorites. He has such quirky, cute, and interesting wallpapers.

those are fantastic wallpapers! I have spent the last hour looking through and i just cant choose one!

I love those, bit the widescreen ones aren't free. Gah!

This is a general hi-definition photography/manipulation site I enjoy:

Interfacelift

also, for vista users...any cool websites where i can get some gadgets for the side of my computer? :]

if you click the plus sign at the top of the side bar it will direct you to a page with tons =]

okay thanks (:

okay thanks (:

Check out this for a cool idea.

Just take a picture of whatever's behind your screen then make it line up!

LOL thats awesome!

It is! I just wish I could claim it was my own work..

I saw that at a website, and they took the back off the screen so it did that to whatever was behind their screen.

Are you sure? From what I know of screens, that wouldn't work.. At best you'd get like a blurry shadow, assuming you had a light background behind it..

I heard it works in some computers, and not in others. It might have been fake, I'll try and find the website and show you.

There's a video on youtube about it, I can't find the website I was reading about it but if I do I'll show you that too. It said how to do it, but like I said, I'm not sure if it's real or not.

It's a neat trick but even the comments point out the flaw. At 11 seconds in you should be able to CLEARLY see the cables on the bed but alas, no cables. D: For the most part though it was well done.

Yeah with that one, but if you google apple transparent screen and look at the pictures some of them are really good.

Sorry for all the replies lol. If you search transparent laptop screen you'll find a lot of images. The only thing I can find is to do a photoshop trick, but I swear I saw one that did it for real but it was only done with apple screens. This was a couple years ago, and now I'm beginning to think it was fake.
