    I'm looking for a wallpaper that must be:
    1.High Resolution (1400x1000+)
    2. Contain geometric patterns that give an infinite feeling; i.e. looks like there's no end to the image
    3.Nothing too bright
    4.No real photos
    5.No words or people
    6.No object per se, I want something that doesn't really represent anything in particular.
    7.Soft,lush look.


    I know i'm asking for a lot, but i reformated and forgot to back up my pics and lost my favorite wallpaper. I've searched countless sites for anything similar and have come up with nothing. Any resources would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks!

    You are looking for a fractal in dark colors.
    Search for mandelbrot or julia fractal wallpapers.
    You'll find something of this sort:

    You might want to make your own using one of the many Fractal generators out there... FRACTint (WINFract) is one such that's free and way cool. There's also lots of Fractals out there. Google is your friend...

    Well, I really like backgrounds in the abstract - illogic pattern. And vivid colours just make my day.
    I`ll have to try the Winfractal thing too,might be down my alley.
