Full HD format (1920x1080) and at the moment I'm going through a phase of colour distortion, as you can see.
Not explicitly created for MX/Forum, but my current personal selection on my laptop.

Awesome pictures. I especially love the one at the top far right. Reminds me of my Blue Butterflies picture I use when doing a blue themed desktop.

Novel color sense! And it feels like Linux!

Morpho butterflies would look good on MX.

I like to browse pexelsDOTcom for my background images. That is where I found the butterfly image.

I'm not in a very good position with butterflies, I hardly have anything to look at.
Here are a few more pictures that look quite good on me and, apart from one, do not require any changes to the conky (it is currently on the right side of the monitor and transparent).

The next wallpapers will be published when mx 23 is released.
Maybe by then I will have my large desktop again and will have to adapt it for dual-monitor operation with uhd+wqhd.
I only use my own pictures as a matter of principle :-)

Superb dark colors used. Works well with existing foreground text in light colors. Thanks for sharing!

Very nice pictures and colours, @wdscharff !

I missed having some of your contributions in the wallpaper collection for the coming MX23.

Will keep these in mind when we next seek out fresh wallpapers.

thank you
Due to health reasons I had to limit all activities, so I must have missed the posting(s).

You can always help yourself here, although some wallpapers are just reinterpretations of existing ones.

I wish you a quick and complete recovery.

And yes, I know quite a few are recoloured versions. I immediately recognised the bee picture, which was a favourite of mine.

Ooooh, I love the dark blue flower and the blue evening shot.

As you can guess, I'm a sucker for bloo.

@Arnox Click on the link I provided (post #6). They have several pre-selected sizes to choose from. You can even create a custom size.

@wdscharff Wow! Love the colors and images! Very cool! I think my fav is the pink butterfly on the blue flower! I do dig the blue bee and pink wheat or whatever that type of grain is too! That black dog with the purple background is quite nice as well! I love nature and animals! @siamhie Nice! I really like the blue butterflies! Great work ya'll!
