Dell U3011 is what I have my eyes, heart and tongue (if it was physically next to me, anyway) on. Yes, it's more expensive than their 27 incher but at the end of the day I'd rather just get the biggest res available at this time and be done with it. Not a fan of 16:9 aspect for PC anyway.

Ah, the Dell Ultrasharps look so nice.

That non-curved bezel would probably make them look good in groups, too.

Sadly, the picture wasn't quite wide enough to make it a dualscreen wallpaper.

osu! is work. You do things. Hone your skills, develop socially, etc.

A desktop image is shown when you are doing nothing. Why do you want to do nothing more?

For the same reason people put effort into painting the walls of their house, or putting in some new flooring, or cleaning out that giant pile of papers on a desk. Yes, if you're staring at the color of your wall you're probably doing nothing, but you always see it so you might as well make it look nice.

That's not to say wallpapers that people spend time on look nice, but they're at least not 24x16 jpg's compressed to hell then tiled across an HD 1080 monitor.

Those are different cases.

When you are busy working, you don't cover your walls. You look away from them. (Unless you're working with the walls or whatever.)

Walls provide ambient aesthetics and affect emotions because of this. Same with lighting and scent. Your desktop image only shines through parts of your monitor of at all.

Now, if you decorate your desktop with a thousand little utilities, that's fine. Just imagine ten clocks, thermometers, barometers, voltmeters, sound meters, Wi-Fi detectors, etc. on your real wall. Kinda stupid isn't it?

Are huge walls of text really helpful? Do you really need to minimize everything to access your music player? Why not just click the damn icon or bind keyboard keys, or use a remote?

I put about an hour (at most) of effort into every desktop background I make. I often tweak things after using it because e.g. the part behind the task bar or behind title bars is ugly and distracting.

I wasn't trying to make it sound like desktop images are a wasted effort. I just see flaws in a workflow which requires you to interact with your desktop.

TL;DR I'm hungry.

I removed the wall of text immediately after I posted the screenshot, cuz yes, it was unnecessary. It was, perhaps, one of those things where people would go wtf at when they walked by, and it has served its purpose, once and only once. I've had my fun with Rainmeter.

I'm hungry.
