Just found the one linked, I like it but I can't find the high resolution version, so I was curious to see where people get theirs.

I don't like having detail in my phone bg, and ocean picks are always just the right level of uniform color.

I got it on the play store. And it's called day & night

Current background on my phone, used to save OLED backgrounds from the reddit sub back in the day, and now I have like a hundred on my phone. Switch about once per year.

Created a program to generate mandelbrot fractals long before I had a smartphone. I've regenerated this one in different resolutions for each phone I've had.

Thanks, now my phone has been infected by the Scarlet rot. Now I need to rest my phone on a site of grace to clear the status effect.

Lock screen

Home screen (i applied a black tint since i had trouble reading white text against it)

I got them from lurking r/wallpaper though I wish i knew more of their original sources

It's a closeup view of the glass on my wood stove. I ran it through a couple filters. The green one is on my lock screen. Then it's the red one when I unlock.

I drew it, cuz I like pokeymans.

Mammon reading the business section, a comic cover from Black Monday Murders. Because I work in accounting and just love this image and the whole idea. I do own these in print. Just image searched on Google.

Bioshock inifnite, one of my favorite games. Can’t remember what I even had on my phone before this

I honestly don't remember where I found it.

Looks like it, yes.

This one I use on my pc, it's from Fallout New Vegas.

I use this one on my phone, it's a mix up of adventure time and bloodborne. I found them both on reddit some time ago, but don't know the exact subreddits.

😍😍😍😍😍 I'm definitely using the mobile one next!!!

I have over 300 wallpapers in my folder on the computer. I have told windows to change them every 10 minutes I recall. They are about games, friends, all sorts of characters, movies and horror at least.

My laptop has the default wallpaper - it has had it since from the beginning. My phone...I don't remember where I got it.

Tapet _ Epazote _ 806189 _ LO2Qtl5O8cYv7qiA_1708639799615 Tapet _ Epazote _ 806189 _ xzONbfvNy3zSqkJa_1708639811214

Procedurally generated by an app called Tapet.

I use the blue one for my wallpaper, and the red one for my lock screen.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 5 months ago (1 children)

I also currently have one generated by Tapet as my wallpaper. On a tangent, the app seems to have undergone a rehaul in terms of UI, atleast on Android.

It seems to randomly stop changing wallpapers every whatever interval you have set. Love the app though once you curate out the dumb tribal tattoos and other junky ones.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 months ago

Yes, there are many presets in the app whose wallpapers I don't care for either. One issue with the app failing to randomly change wallpapers could be the OS throttling the app in the background. If the app is killed for Battery saving reasons, I doubt it can do it's job.

My Pixel phone comes with a feature called Emoji Workshop, allowing me to make custom emoji wallpapers.

This one is my lockscreen:

[–] [email protected] 5 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago) (2 children)

I use a live wallpaper. Day and night. Shows an ever moving pastoral scene. It changes depending on the time of day and the weather

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 months ago

Indeed, I'm curious too!

[–] [email protected] 5 points 5 months ago

Is it on the Play Store? Would you happen to have a link for it?

[–] [email protected] 12 points 5 months ago

Mine is the derpiest of deeps. I love her more than everything.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 5 months ago

My lock screen image is cropped from a collection of James Webb Space Telescope pictures of the month. I love the surreal orange-y photonegative effect, the hexagonal focus lines, and the black circles where the stars overloaded the sensors. If you’re looking for backgrounds, that currently my main resource for beautiful and mind-bending images.

One that particularly stands out in my mind is the image they released highlighting one single galaxy cluster that appears in 3 different spots, because its light got deflected by a couple of massive gravitational sources along the way - the 3 different spots vary by about 1000 years in the time elapsed since emission, it’s wild

My lock/home screen combo is very calming. Makes me happy.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 5 months ago (1 children)

I really like your home screen wallpaper. Do you have it's original source/ high resolution variant? Also, hello firefox user.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 months ago

I don't. I just found it on a community for wallpapers linked in the comments here somewhere.

Found on r/space ages ago. Plane flying through someone shot of a ring nebula.
