Desktop wallpaper
Much has been said about the pros and cons of the new Windows 7 operating system. But personally, having installed it myself, I could not help but pay attention to the standard Windows 7 desktop wallpaper. And I must say, I was pleasantly surprised, because before that, developers never took the risk and offered completely neutral backgrounds - photographs of monuments of architecture, nature, etc. Now, in addition to traditional photographs, which have become much more interesting, there are really very curious psychedelic and surrealistic works that, despite their crazy plots and plentiful palette, are not annoying, but pleasing to the eye.
“We sought worldwide recognition, therefore, we looked for illustrators for Windows from different parts of the world with a variety of manners of artistic creation - let all the endless diversity of humanity be presented with us, because we work for everyone together and for each individual.
We are proud to present amazingly gifted artists, as well as their work, giving the unique look of your Windows 7. "
