Good Desktop Backgrounds

[rayzor]

Anyone got any good places for some free, awesome/badass desktop backgrounds? Mine is ok, but it really isn't worthy of my rig. Anything badass sci-fi or with visually stunning scenery or lots of intensity is what im looking for, and well focused high resolution necessarily is preferred.

Do people with basic spec pc's have to use the windows default wallpaper?

haha, no...im just saying, ive been looking for a really cool wallpaper for some time (i took out a big loan to pay for my computer and want a nice sharp, cool looking desktop) and i really haven't found anything too hot through google yet. Most of it is a bunch of 1024x768 grainy flower pictures.

and i don't mean to sound arrogant about my rig...im modest in person believe it or not

But thanks for the suggestions so far, i really like the sites.

I consider my rig poor until a graphics card comes out that'll play Crysis smoothly at max settings.

I like to get my wallpapers from www.desktopnexus.com.

It has a few good ones. I just search for random. And occasionally I find one I like. And then I'll save it to a folder, so I can switch between cool backgrounds whenever I want.

Thanks, I really needed a refresh of my desktop and with a 1920 x 1200 screen size it is difficult to find free pictures unless you take them yourself.
