Wallpapers
Commonly wallpapers are large, high-resolution images that fill an entire screen without zooming. They can be used as a background image on your computers desktop. Also without needing a background image, wallpapers might be a nice search, because of the quality, size and resolution those images normally have.
With the usage of colors and the layout of the image a good wallpaper is adjusted to its usage as a background, too much bright colors and too much contrast would make it harder to distinguish the icons. That is also the reason why you'll find many wallpapers using only the right side of the image for the picture.

Searching wallpapers
|
|
|
Just search for
wallpaper
or
wallpapers
to find an immense load of wallpapers.
Alternativly, many wallpapers are named and/or categorized by their size. Searching for the common wallpaper sizes (screen sizes) leads to a lot of other results, and if you use your own screen size, direct usable as a wallpaper.
- 648x480
- 800x600
- 1024x768
- 1280x1024
Search more specific
Getting wallpapers of a certain subject can be done by combining keywords. You don't want just a bunch of wallpapers, you want wallpapers of the Shakira, use e.g.
Shakira wallpaper
or
Shakira 800x600
.
Use the search properties instead
For a famous artist as Shakira, you'll find more than you ever would want. If you are looking for somebody or something less famous, here is an alternative way to still find a load of wallpapers. Let us take e.g. the Italian model Elisabetta Gregoraci. You could use something like
Elisabetta Gregoraci Wallpaper
but that limits you to images that are identified as a wallpaper. You coud also search just for
Elisabetta Gregoraci
and use the properties of the search, set the minimum image width to e.g. 800 and the minimum image height to 600 and off you go.
