February 2, 20188 yr Where do you get the best wallpapers for the Desktop? I mostly use Google picture search, but I ran out of tags to search for... for example: Aviation, Boeing, Airbus, Aircraft and so on. Google is showing always the same things. I am just curious where other people get awesome pictures for the desktop.

February 3, 20188 yr I took a screenshot on my own from FSX. I almost never change the desktop wallpaper anyhow. Captain Kevin Air Kevin 124 heavy, wind calm, runway 4 left, cleared for take-off. Live streams of my flights here.
February 3, 20188 yr I collect screenshots from my P3D travels and then move the pictures to the Pictures windows directory. I have Windows use that as the source used for wallpaper and have it shuffle. You'd want to make sure the screen capture file type is set to PND in the P3D settings. P3D does, or used to default to BMP file type which windows can't use as wallpaper.

February 3, 20188 yr Moderator I don't even bother about wallpaper, as my Desktop is almost never seen anyway! Even with two monitors, between Max, Photoshop and my email client opened, they take up all of my screen's real estate... Fr.
