Default Old adventure-themed wallpapers

Anyone have any good ones or know any good sites? I'm in need of a good wallpaper, but good detailed pictures of sierra games and the like are hard to find. I had a good roger wilco one, but it was too blurry to use on my 1280x1024 resolution monitor.

http://www.billtiller.com/projects/default.asp has some pretty good wallpaper material, courtesy of Bill Tiller. None are super high res, though

www.pixelgirlpresents.com has the best collection IMHO, although anything by Bill Tiller would also do fine

Ofcourse it doesn't have much adventure themes wallpapers (misread the thread title, sorry), but it still has awesome wallpapers and icons

That pixelgirl site actually has some good ones, but most of the ones I like have words imprinted all over them....a shame because the pattern/design strikes me as interesting.

I am glad you have finally found the light.

Seriously, I really am.

Whoooooops...Sorry! I am really terribly sorry. I still have to take a photo, but first the camera needs batteries, and I don't know where they are, now that it is finally back from China.

I promise, I'll finish it sooner or later. Holidays are coming up, you know.
