A decade ago, I was a small boy fussing about choosing nice, artistic, cool looking wallpapers for my Windows desktop. After a while, I told myself that wallpapers aren’t worth fussing over. The default Windows cloud-field wallpaper would do.
Then I started using the Mac. Tiger’s blue twisty wallpaper’s nice, Leopard’s space pic looks cool, Snow Leopard’s really quite sweet. Until I felt a little uninspired lately, and I looked at my desktop – it looks too familiar now.
No longer emitting any coolness and not mysterious enough for me to lose myself. Then I went back to the wallpaper site I fussed about when I was a little boy: http://digitalblasphemy.com
Sadly, a good chunk of the good stuff’s made into paid products, but I still managed to get some freebies to make myself feel like a small boy who fussed about his wallpaper again.
