I need some good y2k wallpapers. I'll start off with.
I have several vintage Y2K wallpapers I've been meaning to upscale/expand to HD but here's one I just found.
>>8087959i dont mean to be a dick or pushy or anything but can you post the other y2k wallpapers you have, but upscaled? bc this one is alr so cool and beautiful
>>8087960This one is more or less done. Expanded to widescreen with Photoshop AI. I'll try to drop a couple more next week if the thread's still up. I have another one I was about to post but I can't help but feel it needs a little more work.

animewallpaper narod ru/gallerea htmlcheck it. (add a dot in-between wallpaper and narod and a dot on ru and one on html)
>>8087431Thanks everyone for keeping this thread alive. I wish some of these were on wallpaper engine.
>>8091826I got several I'm gonna dump next week. Just doing touch-ups on them.
>>8091826you can add them simply by dragging the files on the bottom of the window. Maybe try making your own?
>>8091838can't wait
>>8091125>>8090979>>8089891>>8089889>>8089888Metalheart is so cool bros
>>8087959What upscaler do you use? I've tried AI upscalers but they all output a sort of smeared watercolor look that I hate.
>>8092108Metalheart is underatted.
>>8091825is there a version of this but without the cartoon pornography?
>>8087964Edited the spheres on the bottom corners to reduce the lens warp.
I'm almost certain I'll be updating this one in the future.
I was apprehensive about expanding this one to 16:9 so you'll have to crop it or expand it yourself. Sorry.
Note: I don't know the actual title for many of these papes.This one was made by 'J Bois' in 2004. That is all I know.
The quality is a bit spotty with some of these edits so if I ever get around to updating them, I'll post them here:https://mega.nz/folder/qFRTCBKR#5aUllou_aLkh0TZ9dEBbqQ/folder/WZoS3ITJ
>>8092110Sorry if I gave the impression that that was an unscale. It's just an image I found off the web. I mostly use Gigapixel AI, and on occasion, CupScale. But I don't know of any upscalers that can really produce HiRes upscales that truly have immaculate or photorealistic quality. We need AI that can recognize what it's looking at and actually 'imagine' what that image would look like at HiRes by creatively inputting missing details in a blown up image. Programs like Gigapixel can sort of do that with faces to a limited extent but little else. For better or worse, we're still very much neck-deep in the era of AI slop. Not so different from what life was like a century ago when people were first wrestling with the advent of airplanes and moving pictures.All of this is part of the reason I'm not interested in super HD displays. There's a real issue of diminishing returns with upscaling. You can make a vintage wallpaper look passable on a 1920p display but it would be a lot harder to make it look decent at 4K. And by the time AI can do that, we might be done with traditional desktops anyways. Who knows.

Can someone help me? I've been looking for a wallpaper I had that's very similar to this. It's got some large, clear crystals in the foreground, a large pale blue or white field, and maybe a volcano or something orange like fire. Sorry if that's too vague. It looked fucking clean and powerful. I miss it.
A curiously large image for a wallpaper from 2001. It was uploaded by mistake on the website. Makes you wonder what other vintage wallpapers are available in HiRes on someone's hard drive somewhere.
>>8092291can you post the non-upscaled/edited ones as well? i've been looking for stuff to use on my old computers.
>>8092548I uploaded them to a folder since I didn't feel like posting them.https://mega.nz/folder/qFRTCBKR#5aUllou_aLkh0TZ9dEBbqQ/folder/KZJ3HDrS
