49 Killer Car Wallpapers
Apr 21, 2009 Web Roundup
Cars offer designers a unique opportunity to create a stunning image, by using the car itself as the focus of attention, and designing or taking a photograph where the background and elements accentuate the car’s beauty. Because cars come in all shapes, sizes and colors, there are nearly endless possibilities.
Today, we have a list of X absolutely killer car wallpapers that you can use on your desktop to help impress your friends. Sure, they might not add to your productivity…but they sure are nice to stare at.
Apologies in advance for some of the sizes, unfortunately some designers assume that everyone is using 800×600 resolution. Regardless, they still are all quite beautiful.
If you liked this post, please share it with your friends and submit it to Digg or StumbleUpon. I really appreciate it when readers take the time to share a post they enjoyed reading. Thanks everyone!
