high resolution desktop wallpapers

So I finally got around to upgrading from my old 15" crt monitor. I got a 19" lcd now with a native resolution of 1280x1024, and I'm having the damndest time finding high resolution wallpapers that I like. I'm looking for fantasy type, or scifi, so if any of you have a good site with some to choose from, I'd love to see them!

www.deviantart.com is where I snag most of mine. If you find any others drop the links in, can never have too many links

For desktop pictures, I use these:

This is a great site:

I'm a big fan of DesktopEarth.

It's a dynamicly generated view of the earth, with optional realtime cloud cover.

Phooey. Beat me too it. It's a pretty cool program, though. It covers the movement of the sun over the earth and you can have it track day time, night time, where you are, etc.

Thanks to you and GF for the DesktopEarth link. I just installed it and think it will stay on my desktop for a long while.

Webshots also has a good app for switching wallpaper. You can have it change once a day, every hour, etc.

I'd just be happy to have a vid card capable of pushing 1920x1080.
