Widescreen wallpaper

Currently I have an Apple 23" Cinema HD display monitor - at a resolution of 1920x1200. Does anyone know where I could find high resolution, widescreen desktop wallpaper? The only place I know of that offers any right now is www.digitalblasphemy.com but you need to purchase a subscription in order to have access to it. When I first got the monitor I purchased one, but my year just ran up, and I really don't want to put out another $100 for another year.

Well membership here: http://www.plasmadesign.co.uk/desktopwallpaper.htm costs £7, which isn't so bad...

Also you could visit: http://www.chadwickcmeyer.com/atot/ - the 2meg photos in there are hi-res ones.

Other than that, what exactly are you looking for? a pattern or a photo?

It's actually funny - about an hour after I posted my question, I bought the subscription to plasmadesign.co.uk - nice designs and it's a lifetime membership instead of the renewing annually thing. Exactly what I was looking for :)

those are all awesome sites... does anyone know the desktop wallpaper site that has a picture of a faucet spouting fire, maze with white walls,anda lego man, or a couch watching tv with a gray background. for some reason, i think it might be a foreign site, or the url is spelled funny or something.

thanks in advance

If you cant upload a description and a resolution might help a little.

I have the same problem only i alreadyy lost the wallpaper. It was a very high res with just an oak tree in the middle taking up most of the picture in the afternoon.
