For information about which fonts, programs, etc I used to construct my pages and my headers, see below.

The wallpaper you will save does not have this large watermark on it but just a small one in a corner.
 Sizes
The Regular Screen size ones are 1280 X 1024, so they will look good on any resolution or size of monitor that's not wide screen.
The small wide-screen ones are 1280X800. I have a 15" wide-screen laptop and this size fits it perfectly.
The large wide-screen ones are 1680X1050. I have a 22" wide-screen LCD and this size fits that screen.
Each time I get a new monitor I make a bigger size. I just got a new 24" LED monitor so here's the new size:
The Extra Large Wide-Screen ones are 1920X1080 and fit a 24" wide-screen monitor.
You can use any of the Large Wide Screen ones for the larger monitor by using the stretch function
on your wallpaper program. I have done that and it looks just fine.

Formats
 In some of the newer wallpaper, I've provided both a jpg or png format. Png looks much better than jpg, especially for those with lots of red.
Windows XP natively supports png files but I understand Vista and Windows 7 do not (I don't have either one so I don't know for sure),
but you can get freeware programs that allow you to set png files as wallpaper.
See my wallpaper tutorial for instructions on how to set as wallpaper, including using png files,
and also using some free third party software to set or cycle your wallpaper and handle your desktop icons.

Saving the Wallpaper
Left-click on the thumbnail to open the larger picture. It will open in a new window so you don't lose this one.
If it doesn't open, your popup blocker is stopping it. Disable your popup blocker and it will open.
These are large, high quality pictures so give them time to load.
When the window opens with the larger picture, right click and save.

All of this wallpaper has matching stationery in the Stationery pages.
 Don't forget to hit the refresh button on your browser menu bar to see the most current page.

In the newer ones, you'll see large artist's copyrights. That's because they have to be readable, even in the preview.
In the paper itself, they are not huge like that, they are small, but readable, and near the picture.

Webpage Design Information
This white webpage background was made in PhotoImpact with my tutorial called Liquid Gold.
I use PhotoImpact to make all of my headers and font previews due to the amazing
3D text it has and the wonderful presets available free online
The font I used in the long red header buttons is KatTailHMK.
All of the 3D text on this page was made with the font Canadian Participants.
(click on the font names to download)
Most of my presets used are either the ones that come with PhotoImpact, usually the Gel ones,
and also from Deb's PI Tutorials and More (see below) and Carol Oyl
This is the address to Deb's Tutorials and More old pages
 http://www.fortunecity.com/skyscraper/millenit/1716/pitutorials/objects/presets/presets1.html
I can't find any links to her new pages but the presets are still on this page for download.
For more sites to find PI Presets, take a look at my Great Beginnings page.
