    Some time ago(about last October), someone posted the address of a site where you could download wallpapers. They had several for each month, with the month included. They usually had one picture that was specifically quilting, but other really nice pictures too. Since then I have enjoyed using them but.... our computer died :cry: and along with it went all the cool sites I had found through this board :cry: .
    If someone could tell me the site I be so grateful.

    I typed wallpaper into the search box at the top of this forum and it brought up a whole list. Not sure if this is the one, but it has some beautiful things on it.

    Gee that was a quick answer! I had tried typing wallpaper in the search and the first time I got nothing (must have done it wrong I guess).
    Although it isn't the site I meant, they are very pretty (much nicer than the blue screen I have at present).
    Thank you so much.

    I go to webshots.com You can register for a non paying membership which allows you no more than 5 pics a day which can add up to a cool amount of computer backgrounds. I have a puddle of them myself, some for each holiday, some for each season. also its a great place to go check out others quilts or varieties of say.. log cabin quilts.. all next to each other. There are some terrific pics and personally I never see any reason to pay the monthy fee for the professional shots when the non pro shots are just as amazing.

    Thanks Elisabrat. There are some beautiful pictures there. I think I'm spoilt for choice.

    Happy to say I have now found the website, by googling different variations. For anyone that is interested it is

    Thanks for your help, & I now have more choice! :thumbup:

    If you have an older or slow computer, wallpaper will eat up memory as will screen savers and themes. They are always running in the background.
