Does the habra community take the time to choose/search for desktop wallpapers?

This question is very interesting, and if the answer is yes, what sources?

We put Bolgenos and do not bathe with wallpaper.

Once the system administrator asked:
- Teacher, would you like a beautiful picture for your desktop? I have a collection of "desktop wallpapers" with starry sky and moral law.
– Why do you think my current “wallpaper” is worse? Yin Fu Wo asked in response.
I don't know what picture you have now. I have never seen your desktop. You always have many windows open.
“I never saw him either,” said Venerable Yin. - I work.

Apparently not very much, as I put Windows, as the standard ones stand, I don’t worry.

I don't pay attention, the desktop is flooded with #222 color, which always improves mood and reminds you of the meaning of life.

About 2-3 years ago I found one that completely suits me, since then there has not even been a desire to look for something new. I still remember all too well that incredibly boring wallpaper selection process that took me an entire hour, or even an hour and a half.

Yes, five minutes of meditation on the results of the query "sherlock wallpaper" or simply "sherlock". Of course, 95% of the time something is open on the screen, but what a charge of positive mood in the morning when you turn on the computer! True, this option cannot be considered typical for the habra community :-)

Don't worry, just install BolgenOS.
But seriously, under Linux (opensuse for sure) there is such a thing: xml, which describes the animation of the desktop background. So, I have a folder with *.jpg and a script that compiles all *.jpg to xml. I just periodically add files (for the last year, this is a photo from the official sites of the Formula 1 teams) and run this script. Thus, the wallpapers on my computer are kept in a boring state .

I don’t worry at all, I just put different colors on different desktops. And no wallpaper.

There are three problems for me:
1. Keychain.
2. Desktop wallpaper.
3. Melody on a mobile phone.
The vast majority of what I see is annoying, inconvenient, or simply not to my liking. Therefore, I spend a lot of time searching for each of the points, but if I already found what I like, I install it and forget it for a very long time.

As soon as you manage to take a good picture of something really cool (cooler than what was before). The current wallpaper has been hanging since December 2010.

Extremely rare, but yes. As a KDE user, I take wallpapers from the appropriate resource .

@philipto

for desktop and laptop - never, ever since the absence of wallpaper saved memory in Windows 95. For a smartphone screen - yes, I choose from a gallery of photos that I took myself. When setting up a new smartphone, i.e. about once every 2 years.
As noted above, something is always open on the computer screen, I see the wallpaper that second that passes between turning on the computer and launching the desired application.

How often do you look at your desktop?
I have one of the standard wallpapers and it doesn't bother me a bit.

Under XP once a year I put something randomly encountered from deviantart or a similar resource, and in the seven there is a good set of wallpapers, a standard theme with landscapes is spinning. Only in the test virtual machine with XP is still a drawing with DA.
