Grunge Your Desktop

I recently embarked upon a quest to find some grunge wallpaper for my mac. Grunge art holds great appeal to me in a distressed jeans sort of way. That is, lots of effort goes into making it look unkempt and somewhat dirty, and for reasons unknown, this is cool. Several Google searches later, I learned that the best grunge art was found on stock photo sites of which one would have to become a member, and even pay a small fee, in order to attain the art. I pressed on, and somehow in a flurry of mouse clicking I landed on Design555; A graphic design website run by a guy who specializes in - wouldn't you know it - grunge wallpaper. My day was made.

Before you scamper off, I feel compelled to warn you that some of the wallpapers are rather ridiculous, and the text that accompanies many of them is often lame (you'll see what I mean). Still, you're bound to find a couple you like.

those are wild! er maybe weathered... or weird. Whatever, there were a few I thought were cool though :) I like the "something made to look worn and old look" --

hope you're doing good.
