>>70 please more of this

>>71 oh cool, my old wallpaper

>>72 Here's a few more my friend

>>300 thank you, i love the style of the last one

Japan looks so comfy bros, you may think it's just anime but even when I look at it through google earth it looks really nice

>>338 >Japan looks so comfy bros Can confirm. Anime just distills the essence of what's already there.

>>338 It is indeed, sometimes I like to get comfy and look at videos of people just walking around in rural Japan.

>>300 I love the wide-open look of Japanese interiors like in the third picture.

>>349 >I love the wide-open look of Japanese interiors like in the third picture. You can thank almost 1000 years of Zen's inheritance of the comfy 'emptiness' concept from Mahayana Buddhism.

Handful from my first winter scenes folder.

>>560 Another handful, landscape-oriented instead of portrait.

Wonderful additions for the holiday Anon. Berry comfy.

>>573 Thank you, kind fren!

I'm not 62 days late for Halloween, I'm 303 days early!

>>574 The first one reminds me of my grandparents farm. They had an old wooden barn like that. They demolished it years ago, though. The second one reminds me of home where I grew up. I used to stack wood with my dad in the summer and fall, and we put cut tarps over it just like that. I used to go out at night and haul logs in the snow from the stacks in the woods to the stack on the front porch. It wood be well below freezing, but wood get so hot from all the work that I wood have to take off my coat. I always enjoyed doing that. It was berry comfy to be out in the snow late at night in the dark. I don't like where I live now. It's way too hot. Its 70°F out right now in the middle of winter.

More weeb stuff

Thank you for these, anons

Comfy witch

>>593 i love school settings in anime

here is a nice autumn wallpaper. I change my desktop background to suit the season, generally.

>>596 Me too. But it makes me feel a little sad, too. I never really got to fully experience school in many ways, and it's a melancholy feeling to think back on what could have been.

>>599 I know that feel. I seemed to have missed out on the usual rites of passage teenagers go through.

>>601 Do you feel it has made you different? I had the bad luck of few mental issues bothering me since childhood and it made sure that my teenage years were spent pretty much fighting unpleasant feelings all day at school, only to return home and browse the internet or play games in hope of calming down. Even though some people tried to reach out to me, I felt like we had nothing in common. Like I just didn't know what to say. It felt the same as if someone thrown me in a space shuttle and told me to fly it. I just couldn't imagine what to do. Even when someone said "Hi" to me and I replied with a "Hi", their smile was gone. I guess I sounded uncaring, which I guess is true to some degree, but I wonder if they wood care if they were so burned out as I was. I honestly feel it to this day. I'm still young, but there's not as much of that youthful vibrancy to me and I never could get close to people. I'm not even mad about it. I'm just ruminating and wondering how different my life wood be if things didn't go the way they did. Oh well, maybe I'm on some good path right now. I just can't see it yet. We'll see. Wish you a nice day/evening too.

>>602 >Do you feel it has made you different? Yeah, I feel like I'm well beyond the point of ever being normal. I'm a literal sperg but was never diagnosed with anything until I was in high school. Like you, I was never able to get close to people. I was socially awkward, but there were people who liked me well enough. There were even girls who had crushes on me for whatever reason. Maybe because I lacked that off-putting sense of desperation that so many guys have. Even aside from having bad social skills, there was really no way for me to take anything further. Being really introverted combined with needing a rigid structure from day to day ruled out spending time with other people outside of school. When I did try it, I became really uncomfortable and wished I was at home browsing the Internet, listening to music, or playing computer games. I sometimes see people saying that the life of a civilian isn't all it's cracked up to be, but I still wish I could have experienced it during my teenage years. I've always been an outsider, but I can't help but feel that I missed out. >Wish you a nice day/evening too. Same to you.

>>610 Cool photos

>>611 Thank you!

>>753 I've never seen this particular moody fall photo of "fallingwater." Based FLW poster.

Thank you for all these wonderful fall WP. That Falling Water one was particularly nice.

hope someone saves one x)

>>759 I like that old New York one.

Nice things. Thanks, Anon!

The one I'm currently using.

I'm using these right now.

>>4001 Brings back memories of the old cartoons the Boomerang channel used to play when I was a kid.

>>4003 What cartoons were those? The guy who made those is Hiroshi Nagai, by the way. I'm not a visual art enthusiast or anything, but he's my favorite painter.

>>4005 >Hiroshi Nagai Thanks, I'm going to look up more of his art. I found a few already, seems to me vaporwave artists have taken inspiration from his work. >What cartoons were those? Anything produced by Hanna Barbera. Tom and Jerry, Scooby Doo,The Flintstones, The Jetsons, Pink Panther, Yogi Bear, ect. The newer cartoons back in the day didn't interest me as a kid. If I wanted to watch something, these were my go-to shows. Gee, this brought back memories of my childhood I haven't remembered in some time...

>>4006 >Thanks, I'm going to look up more of his art. I found a few already, seems to me vaporwave artists have taken inspiration from his work. I've always thought that if there's a heaven it wood look like one of his paintings. >Anything produced by Hanna Barbera. Tom and Jerry, Scooby Doo,The Flintstones, The Jetsons, Pink Panther, Yogi Bear, ect. Is it the stylization and bold colors? >The newer cartoons back in the day didn't interest me as a kid. If I wanted to watch something, these were my go-to shows. I get what you mean. I watched both old and new cartoons at that time but was generally drawn toward older shows. I used to watch eberrything that you mentioned as a kid, although I didn't have Boomerang and watched them on Cartoon Network when I could. I remember really liking Toon Heads after my family got cable TV, but I didn't get to see much of it before it was cancelled. Looking back, I have no nostalgia for any shows Cartoon Network made past the Powerhouse era. I remember thinking Megas XLR was alright, but that might have been the pilot episode and even then it's not something I look back on with fondness. Do you remember stuff like Herculoids and the original Space Ghost cartoon? I recall Cartoon Network showing those really early in the morning on Saturdays as part of some Boomerang programming block or something, and I remember getting up early to watch them before Looney Tunes came on. Boomerang was one of the only channels beyond basic cable that I wanted as a kid.

>>4008 >I've always thought that if there's a heaven it wood look like one of his paintings. When I look at his art now, I can't help but think of them in this context. >Is it the stylization and bold colors? Bingo. They look like a setting or wallpaper some of those cartoons could be in. >Do you remember stuff like Herculoids and the original Space Ghost cartoon? Can't say that I do. I've seen stuff about Space Ghost floating around YouTube, but I've never heard of Herculoids. Although, after searching for images for it, I can't help but feel that some buried vault deep in my memories has been opened. I know I've never seen it before, but somehow it looks so familiar. Strange how that works... >and I remember getting up early to watch them before Looney Tunes came on. Ah, the good ol days when your schedule revolved around the time your favorite shows were on... >Looking back, I have no nostalgia for any shows Cartoon Network made past the Powerhouse era. Me either. It felt that channel just became noise, more than anything.

>>4018 >Bingo. They look like a setting or wallpaper some of those cartoons could be in. One of my favorite aspects of old animation is the backgrounds. As much as people like to dump on Hanna-Barbera cartoons, I even like some of the stuff you'd see on some of their shows. Scooby-Doo, Where Are You! comes to mind, and of course Jonny Quest was well above most TV cartoons in terms of animation quality. >Can't say that I do. I've seen stuff about Space Ghost floating around YouTube, but I've never heard of Herculoids. Although, after searching for images for it, I can't help but feel that some buried vault deep in my memories has been opened. I know I've never seen it before, but somehow it looks so familiar. Strange how that works... I get what you mean. I wonder what causes that false deja vu feeling. >Ah, the good ol days when your schedule revolved around the time your favorite shows were on... The thing is that that was the only time I'd get to watch whatever shows they were airing on that programming block. I don't remember any of the shows that well, but showing old cartoons I'd probably never seen before was apparently enough of a reason to get me out of bed at 6:00 in the morning or whenever it was. Nowadays I don't even wake up until after 10:00 if I can help it. >Me either. It felt that channel just became noise, more than anything. Even some of the later cartoon from the Powerhouse period I never got into, like Codename: Kids Next Door or Star Wars: Clone Wars. I think Cartoon Network really jumped the shark when they stopped airing older shows in favor of nothing but original programming. It seems like the early 2000s were the last time when kids were given exposure to older cartoons on such a large scale. Nowadays it seems like people like to pretend older media properties in general don't exist unless they're popular enough that they can be used as fodder for remakes or sequels.

>>4006 Reminds me the cover art of the For You album from Tatsuro Yamacacaa by Eizin Suzuki. After a quick search, Nagai illustrated some pop rock albums in the 80's (2nd pic).

>>4006 Where does the vaporwave/retrowave sun come from? What is its origin point? I've always wanted to know. A full brekdown like those "origin of spurdo/gondola" or "origin of bury pink" wood be especially nice.

Here's some actual wallpapers.

I like those

I have more.

Nice. Thanks, Anons!

>>4092 >that second one Saved.

>>4103 >>4092 It reminds me of this ancient wallpaper.

>>4092 >>4108 >>>/retro/

>>4108 It makes me think of these kinds of images.

>>4110 I really should post some of them in /retro/.

>>4116 Yah, I think they'd enjoy them too.

>>4090 I don't think it's the origin, but there was a software company that used that exact style of sun as its logo. Unfortunately, I can't recall the name of it, but I'm bretty sure they date back to the 70s or 80s.

Some wallpapers from /late/ radio

Posting some images I saved in a folder years ago and forgot about.

>>4285 >>4289 These are wonderful, thanks anons.

>>4291 No problem.

>>4033 >Yamacacaa Sh!t. Just noticing lol.

>>4311 Amiga FTW. Berry /retro/ .

>>4311 O N L Y A M I G A !

>>4311 God I cant believe I skipped out on a cheap amiga at one point.

>>4297 I woodn't have posted that first one if I'd noticed that ugly watermark on the bottom.

These are in kind of weird resolutions, but hopefully they're of use to someone.

>>4329 Apologies, but we can only delete all of them, or none of them. But the beauty of the photo more than makes up for the blemish IMO. Also, anyone can crop it out if they really don't care for it. Thanks for the nice wallpapers Anon. Brings back memories tbh. :^)

>>4751 Interesting. That duststorm one is bretty dramatic looking tbh.

>>4752 It's fine as long as other people like it. It's just not something I like with the watermark there. >>4753 They really capture the feeling of the mysterious and wondrous lying just below the surface of the mundane. The artist's name is Leonard Koscianski, by the way. I like the peaceful, dreamlike feeling of his work.

>>4754 Yeah those are quite remarkable. Thanks Anon for sharing these ITT! :)

>>4751 >>4754 These nice paintings have an eerie and dreamy feel. I don't know if it was the artist's will but I find them all a bit disturbing. Is it the perspective ? The predominance of blue tones ? The fact that eberryone is running ? I like them, thanks for sharing.

>>4755 Yup. >>4756 >I don't know if it was the artist's will but I find them all a bit disturbing. Is it the perspective ? The predominance of blue tones ? The fact that eberryone is running ? It could be something to do with the art style. It feels unreal yet also highly detailed and creates a weird feeling when combined with the prosaic subject matter. The villages depicted look charming to me while not being at all rooted in reality. I find it hard to me imagine people actually going about their day-to-day lives in them. They remind me of the towns you'd see in early 3D video games, like Quest 64 or something. Even when you can see objects or some kind of activity habbening inside the buildings, it feels like it's only there to build up a sketchy, superficial illusion of reality. And the more I think about it, the more I can recall dreams where I've seen towns like these. Pic berry related. Apologies for the small size. Maybe the way they mostly take place at night contributes to that feeling too. Nighttime seems to be one of the artist's many fixations. There is a dark and threatening aspect to some of his work. Some of his paintings of are of aggressive-looking animals.

>>4809 >>4810 your posts are godsend anon, I really needed that

>>4809 >rafman Just noticing the filename but I was thinking, "damn it really looks like Rafman work" lol.
