Good idea man!
I use these ones (I have more...but I didn't want to fill the page here
) all the time on my Nxx0 devices.
So rez's for these is 720x480 and 800x480.

The (obvious b+w) shots I took during various sabbaticals in africa and the arctic almost 30 years ago for some paintings I was doing ...I have them to remind me of the good times and cool people I've had the opportunity to hang with.
The stone hut I ran into during one of my cross-country ski jaunts.
The single figure is one of me....during a sketch and painting jaunt with friends during the fishing season up in the arctic....I found it pretty darn haunting.
The others are diverse film or tv icons ...the avengers...emma peel (
) ...
the prisoner..a dalek...from doctor who...
My "Punisher-ux"
(coolest linux penguin around
)
and some other cool walls (not my art....get bored with lookin at your own stuff....)...my kraken pulling a sailor under (my wallpaper for with a "mer"-ish theme for mer on one of my n800's)...ogham plates in wood...and painted prints....from a few centuries back...up until the beginning of the 19th....My stamp collection from when I was a kid ... and bookcases...I love my own bookcases and books...especially the feel of hardcovers...and found a couple good images of bookcases I liked that really "fit" the screen size well....so yeah...here is a few of my fav. cool wallpapers I keep gravitating back to...
As you can tell from a few of them I like having wallpapers that are unobtrusive and uncluttered for the central workspace...and so edited, cut and modified a few (especially of the iconic tv/film images) to occupy the far right rather than filling the screen and confusing the workspace...an aspect I like more than trying to find the cursor all the time with a beautiful but busy wallpaper.
As well you'll notice a few wallpapers where the image isn't the height or width of the screensize real-estate.
I personally don't care much for a busy background at the top of the screen under the status bar
or in the case of my N8x0 devices ...any wallpaper pattern that rides behind the left side bar. I don't like the serenity of the wallpaper being cut off abruptly.
