3d Wallpaper Images

Images used as computer wallpaper are usually raster graphics with the same size as the display resolution (for example 1024×768 pixels, or 1280×1024 pixels) in order to fill the whole background. Many 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. Common wallpaper resolutions are 800x600, 1024x768, 1280x1024 and 1600x1200.Users with widescreen (16:9 or 16:10) monitors have different aspect ratio requirements for wallpaper, although images designed for standard (4:3) monitors can often be scaled or cropped to the correct shape without undue loss of quality. Wallpapers are sometimes available in double-width versions (e.g. 2560×1024) for displaying on multi-monitor computers, where the image appears to fill two monitors.Some display systems allow unconventionally-proportioned images (1:1, 2:1, or even 1:3) to be scaled without change of proportion, to fit the screen, whether it be 16:9 or 4:3. The image would be sized just large enough that one pair of edges touch the edges of the screen, but not all four, as this would unduly distort the image. In these cases, the system's "default" background color is visible around the other two sides of the image.Another common option, particularly for images much smaller than the resolution of the display, is having the image displayed multiple times like a series of tiles. This avoids the distortion of scaling.PNG and JPEG format are common. Some desktop systems, such as Mac OS (version 8.6 or later), KDE (version 3.4 or later), and GNOME, support vector wallpapers (PICT in Mac and SVG in KDE and GNOME). This has the advantage that a single file may be used for screens of any size, or stretched across several screens, without loss of quality.Most display systems are capable of specifying a single colour to use as the background in place of a wallpaper, and some (such as KDE or GNOME) allow colour-gradients to be specified. Early versions of Mac OS and Microsoft Windows allowed for small repeating patterns to tile the desktop.The first use of a distinguishable background in conjunction with overlapping windows was in an experimental office system, Officetalk, developed in 1975 at Xerox PARC on the Alto. Prior to that, the white backgrounds to overlapping windows (for example, in Smalltalk) could be difficult to distinguish from window interiors. The pattern used in Officetalk produced a 25% gray, using dots two pixels high to avoid flicker on the Alto's interlaced screen. The same pattern was adopted for the Xerox Star.Apple used a similar gray background for their Lisa and Macintosh. However, since these machines had non-interlaced screens it was possible to use a less noticeable background pattern, formed from a simple 2x2 repeating pattern that gave a 50 percent gray. The introduction of color monitors for personal computers led to non-patterned, single-color backgrounds and then to arbitrary 'wallpapers'.Wallpaper styles are as varied as people themselves, using photographs, drawings, 3D renders or abstract pattern with complex gradients. It can be useful to have plain areas so that icons can be clearly seen atop the wallpaper.Typical categories can include cars, models and celebrities, scenery, abstract art, movies, pets, family, symmetry, and personal photos. In business use, corporate logos or plain backgrounds are often specified by the companies' guidelines. When using rack mounted computers through a KVM switch, it can often be useful to create a wallpaper with the computer's name on it, to easily identify which computer the user is connected to. System themes are often distributed with a background image that fits the style of the theme.Some operating environments (e.g. KDE and Mac OS X) allow a number of different wallpapers to be used, and "rotated" to display a different wallpaper at different times, to display a random image from a directory. If the facility is not available in the OS's wallpaper settings, it may be possible to get an external program which can change the wallpaper at certain times. Microsoft Windows 98 and higher allow webpages to be set as frames on the desktop which may be dynamic pages. Microsoft Windows Vista Ultimate also has the ability to use a a video as a wallpaper. Users can choose to use their own home videos which loop continuously, or use one already installed.Certain media players (mplayer) provide the option to output video to the background of X11, making them suitable as engine for animated backgrounds from a wide range of video formats. Programs such as Xplanet and EarthDesk use Internet connections and graphics calculations to change the wallpaper with real data, such as a shadowed view of the earth, the latest cloud or weather map, or various events. Some media players can redirect video playback to desktop, allowing any video to be used as a wallpaper. Macromedia/Adobe Flash animated movies and games can be set as a dynamic interactive background as well. To to that, simply point your desktop background settings to an html file with an embedded flash movie instead of an image.3D WallPaper Art http://www.3dwallpaperart.com/)is a website for 3d computer wallpapers, both those created by V. Lancaster, and those sent in by contributors. The site is subscription-based, but a free gallery is also available to non-subscribers.

Wallpaper - Paste it Up

Wallpaper is a material that we use to cover and decorate the interior walls of homes, offices and other buildings. Wallpaper is sold in rolls and is put onto walls with wallpaper paste. Wallpaper began as an inexpensive substitute for paneling and tapestries.
Paper was invented in ancient China. They use to glue rice paper to their walls. A court official of the Chinese invented paper from rags. By the 10th century Arabs used wood and bamboo to create thin sheets of paper. During the 12th century Europeans commissioned artists to paint paper for their walls. In 1675 a French engraver made block designs on the wallpaper and this was very much like the wallpaper of today.
Wallpaper finally came to America in 1739. Right after the revolutionary war it was all the fashion. Everyone wanted it in their homes. In 1839 a 4 color wallpaper printing machine was invented and by 1874 there was a 12 color wallpaper printing machine in use. In 1888 the first ready to use wallpaper paste was invented. Pasting machines were not developed until the 20th century.
If you lived in the ‘20s you were sure to have one room of your house that had wallpaper. Over 400 million rolls were sold during that time. Soon after, people started to frown on embellishments. Wallpaper fell to disfavor for a time for its lavish effects and cost.
Wallpaper has had its ups and downs but after World War Two it picked up in popularity. This happened because of wall coverings that were available were easy to maintain and affordable. This new wallpaper had structural integrity as opposed to the older flimsy kind.
There is a large variety to choose from. There is wallpaper that comes plain that you can paint your own design or others that have patterned graphics. Some printing techniques include surface, gravure, screen and rotary. You can also purchase pre-pasted paper that is easy to hang. Begin choosing your wallpaper by considering the space you are decorating and the type of surface you will be covering. Make certain you measure to ensure you will complete your project. When in doubt always order more then you will need.
I had my own experience with wallpaper. In the 1980’s I purchased wallpaper that had a twist. It was wallpaper that you could write on. I hung this in my bathroom and it had a special pen that was attached. Who ever visited me got to write a special message or saying. Don’t worry because it was also washable and believe me I had to wash it away quite a lot!
Here is a list of some of the different styles that are offered and a brief review of its character. The most popular is vinyl for its durability and easy upkeep. Another choice is fabric backed vinyl. This is usually unpasted but washable and moisture resistant. The next option is paper backed vinyl. It is prepasted and light weight. It creates a three dimensional effect and it works best on rough surfaces. Next there are textiles. These are made of cotton, linen and polyester. They are bonded to a paper backing. These come in many colors and textures and range from casual to elegant. Hand screened wallpaper is vividly colorful and expensive. It also needs a professional to hang and is high maintenance. Last but not least there are flocks and foils. They are also hard to hang and can wrinkle easily. They look like damask or cut velvet and must be hung on a perfectly smooth wall for its true effects.
So by now you must be searching through the many wallpaper catalogues, but do not get discouraged. I am certain you will find the one that brings out the best for your decor.

Why People Download Free Wallpapers

It is no secret that people can easily download wallpapers online. There are several reputable sites that allow people to access free desktop wallpapers, and more and more people are taking up on their offer.
There are quite a number of wallpaper designs to choose from, but what’s even more interesting to know is that people download different desktop backgrounds for different reasons.
The main reason why people download wallpapers is that the wallpapers reflect their interest. A person who is fond of motorcycles may communicate his or her penchant for these rides by downloading an image of a fierce motorcycle. Another person who loves cartoons may opt to display an image of his or her favorite cartoon characters on their computer units. The wallpapers help people in defining who they are and what they are about. People around them will be able to identify a person’s character because it is reflected in his or her choice of wallpaper. The wallpaper thus becomes a stamp of individuality.
Another reason why people take advantage of free desktop wallpapers online is that wallpapers may give people inspiration. Among the designs offered are images of celebrities. It is not uncommon that people love looking at celebrities’ pictures because they are gorgeous; thus, they may be inspired to sit in front of the computer because that would mean they would see an image of say, Angelina Jolie for the guys, or Jude Law for the girls. What’s more, the images of celebrities are not the run of the mill tabloid quality. The wallpapers feature beautiful shots of the celebrities, thus upping the giddy ante. Pictures of music stars may also be downloaded for people who are more inspired with the artists in the music industry; wallpapers of Beyonce Knowles have been downloaded by plenty of guys and girls.
Wallpapers also help people relax. It can be pretty stressful for a person to sit in front of the computer for most of the day, so a soothing image on the screen helps big time. Nature images may do the trick for those who are stressed-out, as the images provide serenity. Also, images of different places around the world may help people take their minds off the busy world temporarily. The wallpapers of picturesque backgrounds provide an escape for the people, allowing them to rejuvenate their minds even while they are in front of the computer. This trick allows people to mix business with pleasure.
Aside from the uses mentioned above, wallpapers also help people to commemorate special occasions. A wallpaper of the Easter Bunny or Santa Claus lends a festive mood to the appropriate occasion. On the other hand, a creepy desktop wallpaper reminds the computer user that Halloween is just around the corner. The people become more excited in anticipation of the holidays because of the wallpapers they download.
While people download free desktop wallpapers for different reasons, the common thing among those people is that they find downloading wallpapers pretty easy. One won’t crack a sweat in downloading images and uploading those on the desktop display.

How To Remove Wallpaper Fast!

So you want to know how to remove wallpaper in a no-mess, no fuss, efficient way.

That's great, because stripping off the old, dated wallpaper is almost always better than leaving it on and trying to apply a new covering over the top, though it can be done.

In this article I'm going to share with you my time-tested tips for how to remove wallpaper quickly.

How To Remove 'Strippable' Wallpaper:
Your wall may or may not have strippable wallpaper on it. Most stripplable wallpaper looks like vinyl with a fabric backing. However, the only way to find out if it is strippable is to try and peel it off.

Here's what you should do...

Lift up an inconspicuous corner of the wallpaper with a utility knife and keeping as close to the wall as possible, pull the paper down the wall vertically. Make sure you pull straight down and not away from the wall as this will reduce the chance of the wallpaper tearing.

If the wallpaper is indeed strippable, it should peel off quite neatly by only applying a moderate pressure. If it doesn't, the wallpaper is probably non-strippable in which case you will either need to use the soak, steam or dry strip methods.


If the wallpaper is peeling away, then continue with the method I've just layed out for you.

Most wallpapers are applied in vertical strips, so make sure you work from top to bottom and remember to stay as close to the wall as possible as it is much easier and neater to peel the wallpaper off in once piece.

How To Remove Non-Strippable Wallpaper:

The best method for how to remove wallpaper that you can strip down is to use the steaming method.

Many tool rental and wallpaper outlets rent electrical steamers to DIY home remodellers.

These are quite basic appliances and typically consist of an electrically heated water tank connected by a long hose to a steamer plate with a perforated face.

The purpose of using an electrical steamer is to soften the old adhesive behind the wallpaper itself.

Here's my tips for how to remove wallpaper with an electrical steamer.

As with the method for strippable wallpaper, always work from the top down.

What you do is hold the electrical steamer at the top of a single strip of wallpaper and keep it pressed against it until you see the edges around the steamer plate darken from the moisture.

Then what you do is grab your trusty utility knife, pull up a corner and then try and peel the wallpaper down with your hands in exactly the same way as I've explained above.

If the wallpaper doesn't peel away when applying a moderate pressure, than re-apply the steamer again and even a third time as the old adhesive behind the wallpaper can be quite hard and brittle.

If you still are not able to peel the wallpaper down with your hands, you will need to use a scraper. Again, keep your scraper as close to the wall as possible and scrape from top to bottom and horizontally across the edge of the wallpaper as you work you way down.

This is more time-consuming, but will give you a nice and clean result.

Once you've removed the wallpaper, check the wall for any patches of old adhesive and sand them down with some fine sandpaper.

Your now ready to either re-apply your wall with a new covering. Note: Wallpapering can be a tedious task, so make sure you really love the color, design and texture of the covering you have chosen.

Alternatively, you may like to just paint your walls instead.

Hope you find my 'how to remove wallpaper' tips helpful. Happy do-it- yourself-ing!

Paint Vs. Wallpaper

This is a question that millions of people from all over the world puzzle over every year. And the strangest things is, even though they have decided on it, several days,weeks, months or years from then, they would probably ask themselves the same question again, “Which is better, paint of wallpaper?'

Deciding between wallpaper and paint can be a very tricky thing to do because both option offer different advantages and disadvantages that we all have to take into consideration first before choosing between them. So, here's a list of paint pros and cons as well as the pros and cons of using wallpaper which hopefully, would make choosing what to use on your wall easier for you.

Wallpaper Pros

Wall paper offers a wide variety of patterns, textures and colors -- There are hundreds, nay, thousands of patterns, colors and textures that wallpaper can offer. From polka dots, plaid, florals, geometric shapes and even landscapes, all these designs and more can easily be had with wallpaper. Plus, textured wallpaper can add more oomph to your walls which paints cannot offer. Some new wallpapers even have beading, sequins, lace and ribbons that add more drama and style to a bare wall.

Wallpaper is an easy and affordable way to hide imperfections and create illusions – If you have an unsightly concrete wall in you living room, you can easily hide it by just cover it up with wallpaper. Not only is this convenient but it can also be cheap because you don't need to spend a lot on priming and smoothing out the wall since the wallpaper can cover it up anyway. You can make a surface look like wood, bricks, metal or straw simply with wallpaper. Making a black concrete wall look like wood using paint only can be quite a challenging feat that only an expensive professional painter can pull-off.

Wallpaper Cons

Wallpaper is hard to clean and maintain – Once your lavish wallpaper is up on the walls, the main problem you would encounter is keeping dirt off it and removing it. Yes, most wallpapers easily stain and those that are stain proof can cost quite a lot. Kids armed with crayons and chocolate-covered fingers and wallpaper most definitely do not go well together.

Wallpaper can easily fade when exposed to sunlight – Yes, most wallpapers out there can easily fade and loose their colors over time. And they also fade quicker when exposed to sunlight and wind. So a room with a wide veranda, balcony or large windows might not be suited to use wallpapers on the walls.

Paint Pros

Paint is a low maintenance, cheap and easy-to-apply interior treatment – Having painted walls means that you need not be so worried about maintaining and cleaning your walls. Most kinds of dirt and stains can easily be cleaned of a painted wall or when the stain does not come off completely, you can easily paint that area in the wall the same color to cover up the stain. While cover up stains and fixing unsightly marks on wallpaper can be quite difficult and expensive since you might have to remove one entire panel of wallpaper and replace it just because of a small stain.

Paint Cons

Paint does not offer much texture and designs – Unlike wallpaper which can instantly create illusions, designs and texture where there are none, using paint to achieve the same effect would be difficult. If you want walls with flower designs without using wallpaper, you have to paint the flowers yourself which would take a lot of time and effort. You can also use stencils to paint designs although these designs would not be as detailed and flawless as those in wallpapers.

Customizing Walls by Decorating With Wallpaper


Picking the kind of wallpaper to use not only depends on the liking of the homeowner, but also the location where the wallpaper will be installed, the amount of human traffic, those who will frequent the area and the activities that will transpire in the room. These factors must be taken into account when redecorating walls with designer wallpaper and wallpaper borders.

Low-traffic and low-activity areas like master bedrooms, dens, and babies’ rooms may be pasted with standard wallpapers since these areas are not prone to damage or stains. However, high-traffic and high-volume areas such as the kitchen, bathroom, and children’s rooms must be fitted with vinyl wallpapers and wallpaper borders, because they are easy to clean and are more durable than standard designer wallpaper.

As mentioned before, the design of the wallpaper also depends on those who frequent the area. The bedroom for instance, serves as a haven for every member of the household and for those whose room is to be wallpapered, they will most likely want to decorate their bedrooms to express their style and personality.

Teenagers are very creative --- when it comes to decorating their walls, they tend to be very passionate in expressing themselves in nearly every aspect of their room be it the murals, wallpaper borders, or other wall decors. Teens typically like loud, animated wallpaper designs and murals. However, there are no exact trends in decorating a teenager’s bedroom since most of them will end up highly individualized in terms of colors and themes.

The nursery room is a peaceful place. As such, the colors and patterns of their walls should be very comforting but still exhibit vibrant, light colors. Colorful designer wallpaper, murals, and wallpaper borders that are based on nursery rhymes are a great decorative choice for nursery rooms. Do stay away from colors or pictures that are too loud for the little ones. Strike a good balance between colors and design for stimulation and comfort when choosing nursery room wallpaper.

For kitchens, the best way to enliven the walls is to use kitchen wall décor and wallpaper that match and complement each other. You can choose from a wide array of themes: country, American, contemporary, toile, and a lot more. Typical kitchen wall décor have farm or barn animals, cooking or silverware, topiaries, fruits and vegetables, flowers, clocks or jars. There are also those with French-worded recipes, Victorian motifs, lattice and other vintage-inspired designs. Faux finish designer wallpaper also goes well with kitchen counter tops. They should match the color scheme of the rest of the kitchen to create a classy kitchen look.

To give your bathroom the illusion of having a larger space, go for bathroom wallpaper that gives an airy impression. Colors like white, yellow, or any neutral colors can do the trick. A bathroom wallpaper mural placed on the largest wall also helps in making a small bathroom seem bigger. For standard bathrooms, the taffeta-themed papers are also a good choice since currently, they make up the latest wallpaper trend.

Modern wallpapers today cater to the needs and likes of every individual. If you are the kind to deviate from the norms, you can opt to hang wallpaper with fun-themed schemes in your den. Comic strip wallpaper and wallpaper borders in your kitchen can also give the place the reflection of being deviant. Wallies, a brand of wall embellishment that’s increasingly popular is also the perfect way to liven up any room. It is easy to apply and reposition, and can further personalize a room.

Walls truly play a central part of a home’s splendor. Wallpapers, if chosen well to fit harmoniously with the other fixtures in a given area, can definitely beautify the interior of an abode. The colors should match and complement each other so as to radiate that aura of beauty and style.

Nowadays, people end up spending entire days in front of the computer screen. Making our computer friendly-looking has almost become as important as having a nice house or a nice office. Decorating these days no longer means buying flowers for our office, but buying wallpaper with bunches of flowers for our computer screen. It is easier, faster and doesn't cost anything.

The good thing is that we don't really have to spend too much money on getting the wallpaper we want any longer. There are too many websites in cyberspace that allow us to download free wallpapers. We have to be careful when we download the free wallpapers though. We may be looking for innocent wallpaper (with a nice cute dog or with a young baby) and end up with a sexy wallpaper, simply because the websites that host and offer images such as a sexy wallpaper are more popular and, therefore, much more common. Of course, this is a positive aspect for those that are specifically searching for sexy wallpaper. Their efforts will be considerably diminished.

As we navigate the Internet, we get exposed to many more things that we do not want to see as compared to the number of things that we intentionally seek and which are the reason why we start navigating on the Internet in the first place. Many things may pop up when we look for just a plain wallpaper with a forest image for example, or when we merely try to check out the advertisement on a website saying that they are offering free wallpapers. However, the case of the sexy wallpaper is different. Many of the Internet surfers are very passionate about sexy images. Beautiful women or handsome men are sought everyday to be placed on the desktops of the computer screens for personal pleasure. The sexy wallpaper (especially the free one that pops out of nowhere) is a blessing for people who spend hours looking for that certain something to make their day.

The quantity of free wallpapers available for download is amazing. The offer for free wallpapers matches any taste and interest. You can find free wallpapers with the most modern cars, free wallpapers with the most recent pop stars or famous actors, but many people prefer to create their own wallpaper. Mothers, for instance, will often have a picture of their baby on the wallpaper. Anybody can choose to create their virtual wallpaper from a picture of their last holidays to the mountains with friends. Finally, these are also free wallpapers, in addition to the ones that the companies provide on the Internet. This type of free wallpapers may even be preferred by more people to those free wallpapers that are to be found on-line.

Internet providers may end up making a lot of money from providing free wallpapers. Through the offering of wallpaper, a specific image is being promoted. Companies may even pay Internet providers to offer free wallpapers with images that refer to their products or that promote a specific type of behavior. In fact, while these things are called free wallpapers, each time we download one, companies make money. It is the same as if we are clicking on an ad that pops up somewhere on an Internet page. The provider makes a couple of cents with each click of an ad and with each download of free wallpapers. However, the money doesn't come from the pocket of the person who does the clicking. Nothing bad in this! The customers are happy and so are the sellers. Those who need free wallpapers get them and those who need to advertise are satisfied as well. It is a mutual benefit situation.

Since most times the free wallpaper is a sexy wallpaper, then it is interesting to see what consequences does the use of a sexy wallpaper has on consumers of Internet information. The biggest concern with sexy wallpaper is that it is available among the free wallpapers for anyone to download easily. Even for children. Parents sometimes do not have a complete understanding of what the Internet is and does. Therefore, they will allow the child to spend a few hours in front of the computer thinking he is becoming computer literate, that he is seeing interesting things. Instead, the child may be downloading free material, among which there can be sexy wallpaper. The problem however is not the sexy wallpaper, but carelessness. Children are also often left to play unhealthy computer games also with the wrong misunderstanding that they are actually learning how to use computers. It is not the fact that sexy wallpaper is available for everyone that is harmful, but the fact that parents don't really know the potential of the web and its influence on their children.

In most countries, it is impossible to censor the Internet. So there is almost no way of keeping a child left unsupervised from stumbling upon harmful ads or offers like that of a sexy wallpaper. On the other hand, those who are not children, meaning almost everyone else, have at least one sexy wallpaper among all the free wallpapers in their computer. They love their wallpaper even if some might consider certain pictures inappropriate. And when they get tired of seeing a certain image they go ahead and change it. And why not? Wallpapers are free and they are for them.
