    Found these screenshots on the web. I am trying to figure out what wallaper that is and where to get it from. It could be a part of a theme pack or something. But I'm sure it exists somewhere on the web.

    Does anyone know where I could find it? or have it and upload it?

    1920x1200 res.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Thanks

    here you go. took me a while to track someone down on multiple forums to upload this from their windows' system folder.

    What do you guys think? yey or nay?

    The reason I went looking for this is that I''m really into learning about space and universe and I find pictures of space/universe/astro/galaxies...etc really exciting. and this image struck me as colorful representation of galaxies with a hint of Windows charm.

    anyways it might be hard to express exactly what it is.

    anyways enjoy!

    haha, 255% supercharged battery, does it glow red in the dark?
    that wallpaper has the default OS X feel about it, but nice

    That background image is beautiful! Thanks for sharing mister. I also like the two pictures you uploaded in the first post. Windows 7 looks amazing!

    It's beautiful, but the symbol or whatever ruins it for me. I think it'd be prettier without it.

    I modified it slightly for those of us with 16:9 displays. It's 2560x1440, which is the closest 16:9 resolution from the photo's native 16:10 2560x1600. I'm thumbnailing it for the sake of not stretching everyone's browser by a factor of 3. :p

    psygn: I agree, it would be a spectacular wallpaper without that letter/symbol thing dead center.

    I might be able to Photoshop it out, but I don't know if that's his signature or watermarking so I'll just leave it be.
