The New UI.

The new layout has divided a lot of people. You may be fine with it. I far prefer the 2018-2023 version for presenting wallpapers on this particular sub. Simple is good. Try new.reddit.com. Alternatively, these tiny UI extensions for Google/Bing and Firefox allow you to swap between all three Reddit generations, and they work very well. You have to be logged in, though. Here's another one.

​

Posting.

Users can now save images in the same format as uploaded, just like in the old days. They listened.

However:

• Gallery Posts (multiple images) are still being converted to subpar webps. If you want to upload multiple high quality image dumps then please supplement by posting a link under your post using https://postimages.org/ Google Drive or https://pixeldrain.com/ or any other hoster. Reddit is picky, though.
• An image posted in the comments also becomes a Google webp.

Saving.

This applies to Gallery Posts (multiple images) that only allow you to download a .webp. Otherwise just save as normal.

1. Right click and open image the selected image in a new tab.
2. Replace 'preview' in the address bar with 'i'.
3. Hit enter.
4. A full size non .webp original is now is available for saving.

Viewing images.

If on desktop, when you click an image, hit F11 to view in full screen.

Oversized image sizes.

All wallpapers here will fit ANY 21:9 monitor, bar the ones flaired as 32:9. Many are oversized, ie 5k 5120x2160. Few actually own these monitors, however these wallpapers will always be that bit sharper, even if viewed on a 2560x1080 screen, so don't hesitate to download them and use 'fit'.

How to post requests.

Use postimages.org or https://pixeldrain.com/ or even just a link to the image you want edited and post in the comments below.

Do it yourself.

FastStone Image Viewer is great and you can easily make handy presets. Old school but don't be put off. There are tons of other tools out there. Look at https://imageresizer.com Post up here if you do, though!

Flair.

Use the flair tabs to refine your search. Also use Reddit's own search function - you'd be surprised what it can throw up. Example.

A message from the mods.

A huge thanks to all our contributors for their superb submissions. On a sidenote: this subreddit is such a pleasure to moderate.
