Site updates

Keeping the updates moving along, the following years have been updated…

Every post from 2022, 2021, 2020, 2019 and 2018

It appears 2019 was the first year I offered my wallpapers in 4K (or higher) resolution. With that in mind, I’m going to group up anything prior to 2019 into a collection for that year. The first up is the collection of 2018 wallpapers – let me know if you like / dislike this approach over the individual pages for each.

I’ve also updated my site with a bunch of new photo posts

Finally added photos of the Piping Plovers we saw in Jersey in 2024

Added a new bird post from August and September of 2024

Photos of the Northern Lights in Iceland from 2019 (re-edited)

These were all previously posted to Flickr or Instagram, so it’s nice to bring everything to my site for the first time.

Finally updating my site

I did it, after over 10 years of my previous site design, I've finally updated my site. Read all about the changes I've started to make and ones coming down the pipeline: https://kriegs.net/2025/03/updating-in-progress/

Fewer Wallpaper Resolutions

Over the years, I’ve always released my monthly wallpapers with various resolution options. But after looking at my analytics and with the new desktop OS’s getting better at displaying and re-sizing images, I’m only going to be offering a handful of desktop/laptop with a focus on the main ratios found on newer computers. Mobile resolutions won’t change for now. 

Included will be: 

2880x1800 (widescreen - 16:10)

2560x1440 (widescreen - 16:9)

1600x1200 (standard - 4:3)

These three will be available for both standard and calendar versions each month. The change will go in effect with the November release this weekend. 

Thanks again for downloading these designs each month, hope you continue to enjoy them!

Update As of February 2016′s release, I will discontinue supporting iPhone 4 resolutions.

Update to Wallpaper Resolutions

Starting with tomorrow's August calendar wallpaper release, I'll be adjusting the resolutions a bit: 

New - Added a new 2880x1800 resolution! This will make MacBook Retina users and other users with hi-dpi screens much happier.

Updated - I've merged the Android mobile and tablet wallpaper into one offering, with a resolution of 1920x1080.

Updated - iPad offerings are now the full 2048x2048 retina offering (up from 1024x1024 previously). The larger image should still scale down nicely for non-retina users. 

This is just a start will do for now. Eventually I want to create ones for Windows Phone, Kindle Fire, etc users, but will probably wait to do this when I do a full inventory check over dsktps.com wallpaper offerings. 

Enjoy!

Silvernome

Decided to start up another blog, this time for my gaming habits. Check it out! 

[silvernome]

So, another blog huh?

Another site. Another project. Another place on the web to call my own. Yep, I'm a bit of an addict I suppose. But I wanted someplace to write about gaming, share screenshots and other cool links. So why not start a gaming blog. 

If you're interested in catching a round or two, you can find me on pretty much every gaming service as Silvernome. 

If you're interested in other things that I do, try here: Website, Blog, Twitter.

Maintenance Mode

Just a heads up: I put my site into a maintenance mode. I should have it back in a few days, with a brand new (responsive) look and April's calendar wallpaper!

Update 03/21 - Hitting a snag with some older IE incompatibilities  Basically, not working. Debating if I wish to delay the launch of the new site to fix or offer a stop-gap to advice people to update their browser.
