I choosed 24 entries and posted them on this post. Of course to fully enjoy the wallpapers, check them at their maximum resolution (links availiable above).
Don’t worry if your entry is not one of those 24 wallpapers (it wasn’t possible to post them all here!), the jury will review each wallpaper. If you’re the author of one of the entries, don’t hesitate to check that your entry was correctly labelled here.
you have 2 days (till friday 11th, 2008. 8 AM GMT+1) to check if your entry(ies) is(are) correctly labelled or if i missed something.
Some entries were not added for the following reasons:
- not a standard wallpaper resolution
- 1 version only per wallpaper (i removed color variations, rearranged layers, etc).

It doesn’t matter who wins or loose, :
- if you wanted this competition to be taken seriously, you can’t see other people’s work before the competition ends.
- it looks really unprofessionall to change the deadline 3 times, i could also say it looks framed.
- but i’m glad i spiced up your imagination in the moment of your artistic blockade.
