Amiga wallpapers

[Specksynder]

Hi,
I just bought an Indivision AGA MK2. The desktop is now set to 1280x512, 50Hz, 256 colours.
Could you please tell me where I can find a good collection of Amiga wallpapers in that resolution?
Thank you

There's http://www.amiga-look.org/ as a place to start.
Then amigaworld.net have a image album you can look through and download, http://amigaworld.net/modules/myalbum/index.php.
As for resolution, you can resize them yourself to suit, there is plenty of free software available for all platforms that resize images.

I've modified my Team17 wallpaper to fit your dimensions @ 256c, if this is any good?

EDIT: I'll have a look at some others later, time permitting, to see if I can manipulate them to fit the dimensions and 256 colours

Thank you! I love it!!!

I believe you're resolution requires a change from what you're using, and should be 1280x720 and not 1280x512, this will correct the aspect ration to match your TV/Monitor.

This is also reflected in the link that was supplied by ptyerman

Also, this will correct the aspect ratio to match my wallpapers, so then there'll be little change except changing the colours down to 256 and resizing correctly without the cropping.

EDIT: Is your Indivision AGA MK2 the newer Indivision AGA MK2cr which has the HD720 mode?

I tried, now it should be 1280 x 720. To be honest I can't see a big difference between this new "Res" and the previous one. Regarding the Indivision AGA, this is the model I bought: http://amigakit.amiga.store/catalog/...oducts_id=1148

Here's a pic of the "New" desktop anyway. I hope you can see it, this is the first time I try to upload a file here.
PS. Sorry for the flash

It looks nice to me, but I don't usually use but 800x600 or 1024x768.

What accelerator have you got? What about your remaining chip ram?

Are you actually using copper then?

[DH]

Can you set your overscan to 1280x720?

Not sure if that'll make any difference as I can't really try as I no longer have an Amiga

@Retrofan
Blizzard 1230 MKIV with 50MHz 68030 and FPU/64MB RAM.
Copper? Sorry I don't understand your question...

@DH
I'll try. There's a friend of mine who's helping me setting a new CF. I'd like to send him some wallpapers to add, it could be fantastic if you modify and upload something from your previous work.

I created some mediocre ones; see this thread: Hey, this would make a great wallpaper!

...think they are still on the EAB File Server under TheZone/files

[AMIGASYSTEM]

HERE there are many native AMiGA Wallpapers

Thank you.

PS. Jooc, how can I change the arrow and clock res? It's like I'm working on high res but the cursors are still in low res...
