Most of the wallpapers I find on the internet look kinda the same to me: the same 3D models from some site, twisted and added countless times. No offense to the guys that had enough patience to do those wallps, but very few are really original.

What, can't handle a little shoveling? :P If I wasn't 1.) perfectly happy with my current wallpaper from starwarsspoofs.com and 2.) residing so far from Toronto I'd do it.

I like this one, myself.

Edit: Whoa, somebody seriously modified the Nebulon B. I recognized the modified frigate from TIE Fighter in one of the other wallpapers, but that one really takes the cake.

Edit 2: The capital ship on the left in this one is behind a fighter, but does anyone else think it resembles the Pillar of Autumn?

I quite like the last one. Looks more cinematic to me.

The last one is the picture in question. It is a scan of a publicity shot that was done a long time ago by Lucasfilm, and it is not "fan art".

However, this particular scan is not of high enough resolution to be a good wallpaper image. The Screenthemes scan is 1600x1200 and has better colour balance to boot, but it's a commercial image which you have to pay for.

For my screen is perfect :mrgreen: I might have to reconsider when I'll buy a new computer though.

Here and here have it at 1024x768. The second link seems slightly better, as it doesn't have the text in the upper-right corner and it seems to be of a slightly larger filesize.
