Looking For New Wallpaper

I have tons of wallpapers but I'm try to find out what you call this design that I am presently using so I can look for more of them ..... I thought it would be abstract art but what I found was much to bold or bright .... I'm looking for something like this which is more subtle .... see photo below ....

I use Pexels.com for most of my wallpapers as they have some of the best selections I have found .....

The hexagon is the symbol of Zorin OS. Simple is best.

Looks like you love customizing your desktop, don't you :smile:?

I simply searched abstract art wallpapers and there are interesting results, but I can't suggest any, I couldn't check them all :sweat_smile:, then I don't know how you like them. Can you tell us which content or appearance they should have? For example with shapes, colorful, complex or other.

Like the one I posted above ..... my current wallpaper or the one Hackgets posted is good anything along those lines ..... nothing with wild colors .... shapes or pictures .....

Yes I know it s very hard to pick out something for someone and even harder to explain what you like ...... and you are so right I love to customize my desktop which sometimes gets me in big trouble ..... :grinning:

OK ..... thanks to Luca_Pavan and AlBucko I was encouraged to keep searching on the web for abstract art wallpapers and found a site that had some .....

After about a hour of looking and downloading I found quite a few that I liked and about another hour I had them resized and loaded up in the Cinnamon Background Setting ..... turned them into Slideshow and off we go .... it all works just fine .....

Thanks for the help folks ......

I always go to shutterstock.com to find something. Usually their stuff is such good quality and 4k+ resolution. It cost yes, but I'm a monthly subscriber. :sunglasses:

No, used mojeek first then used the Brave search engine that mojeek offers as alternative. Pretty instant but further down the search results of Brave get repeated further down. That was the only additional "time waster".

Welcome to the board and thanks for that site .... I really like that they separated the computer from the cell phones ..... most don't do that and you are forced to view both while searching for something you like ....

Only downside I see is that they don't categorize the subjects into things like ..... floral .... landscape ..... animal ..... transportation ..... etc. ..... but still a great find .....

I added that site to my collection .....
