Desktop Wallpaper Directory Goes Web 2.0

Every so often I decide to change my desktop background on either my laptop or desktop PC. I usually spend some time online searching for decent high-res images. I now have one resource I will return to time and time again - Social Wallpapering.

This site is full of quality high-resolution images in the following resolutions :

1280x960, 1280x1024, 1600x1200, and all other background variations with a minimum width and height of 1280x720 pixels

Users are able to upload their own wallpapers which are then rated by the SocWall community in a similar fashion to the way in which one might rate a site on Digg. All the wallpapers are available for download; even to those who have not registered on the site.

Wallpapers are available for standard and widescreen monitors as well as for a dual-monitor scenario.

This is a great resource which is attempting to become the greatest repository of high-res desktop wallpapers on the internet - a lofty goal which I am not sure will be reached. What I am sure of though, is that this site is clearly a case of quality over quantity and I will certainly be a regular visitor.
