Cool Backgrounds For PC



If you are tired of having the same old wallpapers, this article is surely going to give you some ideas about cool backgrounds for PC. In fact, we have found a couple of website with pictures so cool and so numerous that you are going to have a hard time deciding which one to set as desktop background first.

www.wallpapers.com is not only a website which is easy to remember, but it also has some beautiful pictures for you to choose from. This website has different cool categories like holidays, seasons, water scene, nature, animals, sports, art deco, space, patriotic and spiritual. Of course, I had to check out the animal category as it has always been one of my favorites. The “animals” category has 6 different sub-categories like cats, dogs, woodland, oceanic, butterflies and horses. Every one of these sub-categories contains several pages of beautiful pictures. The “Butterfly” sub-category has some awesome images of different butterfly species. The pictures have very lively, sharp and vibrating colors so you can tell they were taken with a professional camera. This website will even show you the current resolution of your computer and allow you to download the wallpaper of your choice.






www.ewallpapers.eu is another website where you can find some amazing landscapes and images which make cool background for PC. You can choose from a very long list of resolutions which are available from the small ones for the iPhone and up to the 5120 x 1600 ones for dual monitors. You can choose between a lot of categories, like 3D, aircraft planes, animals, animated, girls, cars, computers, female celebrities, games, holidays, male celebrities, motorcycles, movies, music, nature, other, sports and world. All of these categories have super images like the ones inserted between these paragraphs. All of these pictures are taking with professional cameras so don’t expect them to be of poor quality and they are not pictures that anyone can take (unless they have this super cool Nikon camera and took some photography classes first).





www.wallpapers.org is another web address where you can find some cool background for PC. Even if I am quite impressed with the collection of pictures, I find the construction of the website to be of poor quality. I expected to find a much more colorful website or at least something more user friendly but this look like a website made by amateurs. However, the collection of pictures found here is quite superb. Some of the categories are similar to those found on most websites but there are a couple of things that you will not find just anywhere. The categories found on this website are: 3D, abstract, animals, anime, art, cartoons, comics, computers, fantasy, games, general, holiday, horror, hot model & celebrity, miscellaneous, movies, music, nature, photography, places, religious, scenery, schools, sci-fi, sports, tiles, TV, utilities, vehicles. Every such category has a super set of pictures which really gets your mind off the ugly looking website and leaves you concentrating on saving as many of these images in your desktop as you possibly can.

From Ralf Schumacher, to Keanu Reeves, Tom Cruise, the beautiful Wentworth Miller, Justin Timberlake, Leo DiCaprio,  Adam Brody and Zac Efron.

On every such website that allows you to download some of the most beautiful images, the nature category has always been one of my favorites.

Not only do I love them as wallpapers for my laptop’s desktop, but I would love to have them as wallpapers all over the house. Sometime I even think these landscapes are not from our Earth as they are too beautiful to be true. Below are a couple of samples from the goodies you get on this website so enjoy!

A computer desktop background is an image used as a background on a PC display . Background is a nice decoration for a PC.

Desktop "Background",  is the term used in Windows 7, while in Microsoft Windows is called "Wallpaper" and Mac OS X calls it a "desktop picture" (before, the term desktop pattern was used to refer to a small pattern that was repeated to fill the screen).

Nowadays, it is possible to download many free desktop background and use it on any personal computer with any operation system (MS Windows, Linux or Apple MacOS).

Attractive, Cool backgrounds to any graphics, banners or ads are quite important. Getting the correct theme, whether it’s an abstract art or texture pattern, it somehow makes the entire artwork looks more interesting.

The cool backgrounds have played a great role, maybe some might not have noticed this. For instance, some product graphic advertisements uses light subtle background to help create focus point also websites and desktops need nice backdrops too.

Images used as computer backgrounds are usually raster graphics with the same size as the display resolution (1024×768 pixels, or 1280×1024 pixels) in order to fill the whole background.

The classic screen resolutions are proportional in a 4:3 ratio, so an image scaled to fit in a different-sized screen will still be the correct shape, although that scaling may impact quality. The best known backgrounds resolutions are connected to common desktop resolutions: 800x600, 1024x768, 1280x1024 and 1600x1200.

Users with widescreen (16:9 or 16:10) monitors have different aspect ratio requirements for backgrounds, although images designed for standard (4:3) monitors can often be scaled or cropped to the correct shape without loss of quality.

If any background doesn’t fit your screen, you can use OS display properties to adjust it. The last possibility is to edit the background in a bitmap editor (MS Paint, Adobe Photoshop, GIMP etc.).

Desktop backgrounds are not a desktop pattern or at least it should not be. Desktop patterns create backgrounds using repeating patters. Desktop backgrounds are unique, there are no repeating patterns.

The principal problem when enlarging a background image to match the desktop resolution is the quality loss that appears during the resize process and the distorted image that appear when aspect ratio of the background is different than the aspect ratio of the desktop. If the image is used in smaller proportion, by default, will begin to repeat if it is too small. Anyhow, most images look horrible when tiled and it should be avoided.

An image can be resized by using any photo editing software you can find but stretching a picture too big will lead to a loss in quality and you may decide you don't want to use that image at all.There are applications that can help you with your image display to make it enlarge, shrink or tiled.

The most common type image are in PNG and JPEG format. Many of the display systems are able to specify a colour to use asa a background, in this case the background replaces the wallpaper. For example KDE and GNOME permit the specification of colours in variations. Early versions of Mac OS and Microsoft Windows allowed for small repeating patterns to tile the desktop.

If we make an incursion into computer backgrounds, we can say that this begins in Renaissance and to be more specific the first computer desktop background appeared in the mid 70's in an experimental office system, Officetalk, developed in 1975 at Xerox PARC on the Alto.

Previously to that, the white backgrounds to overlapping windows could be difficult to distinguish from window interiors. Officetalk used a pattern that produced a 25% gray, using dots two pixels high to avoid flicker on the Alto's interlaced screen. Xerox Star adopted the same pattern.

Apple used for their Lisa and Macintosh a similar gray background. Today, the possibility to change your desktop background is a must in any operation system. Background styles are background fill variations derived from combinations of the theme colours and background intensities in the current.

In video Media, some media players can redirect video playback to the desktop, allowing any video to be used as a background.
