[Request] Windows Vista final wallpapers

[Eggs6131]

Heya, just wondering if anyone had all the wallpapers from Windows Vista, or one of its' Service Pack betas?
Build 5840 doesn't have all of these and the ones it does have pixelate when stretched to fit

Thanks in advance

The Windows Vista wallpapers are, in my opinion, the best looking wallpapers in a modern Windows release. While I very much enjoy the default wallpaper in Windows 7, I always felt that the other wallpapers were out of place or bizarre (especially the ones included in the Characters theme). The wallpapers in Windows 8, while not as bizarre, are a little boring.

Anyway, for the most part, Microsoft did a wonderful job keeping with the Vista namesake (think auroras, giraffes, elephants, mountains).

Speaking of mountains, how many are aware that one of Vista's default wallpapers was taken in 2003?

I agree.
Windows 8:
- that flowers aren't beautiful, just a picture with 2 flowers - boring.
- img1-6,13 - lines, lines, lines. I'm not on a Maths class.
- img7-11 - flowers, nothing special.
- img12 - the worst wallpaper with 2 leaves.
- lock screens - this is the first thing I disable in W8, so if I didn't have W8 on my disc, I wouldn't remember it. Now I see and what I see? !@#$%^&* lines.
RESULT: the worst Windows' wallpapers ever.
Windows 7:
- Harmony - pretty wallpaper, Starter version - ugly.
- Scenes, Characters - abstraction, I don't like it.
- Landscape - the one with waterfall (img10) is fine, anything else - not.
- Architecture - boring.
- Poland (I'm Polish and I use Polish Windows) - it isn't even Poland xD
RESULT: Only too good wallpapers - not well.
Windows Vista:
- img24/36,25-29 - I don't like this style (Aurora?)
- Black and White - img3 (a city) is interesting, the rest - not.
- img5/32 - XP?
- img6,8,11 - too green.
- img7 - I very like these stones.
- img9 - tree. When I look at the window, I can see trees, so the wallpaper is boring.
- img10 - beautiful flower.
- Paintings - no.
- Vista but img24/36 - there are beautiful.
RESULT: I like 10 of 29 wallpapers - very good result. The best Windows' wallpapers.

Wow, that uncropped "Riverside Sunset" picture is beautiful! *scales up and sets as wallpaper*

Windows 8 wallpapers, meh, they're boring. They're either close-ups, lines or 2 flowers. I don't rate them at all :\

Windows 7, I liked the Landscape wallpapers (with the exception of img9). The rest are boring or cartoonish, both things are not good for wallpapers.

Vista, yes, agreed, they're absolutely beautiful. The only exception really being img9 (tree trunk). That's just my two cents though.

Some of Windows XP's wallpapers were nice, but they've been around for so long that they've become quite generic looking. See this video:

The wallpaper project that i uploaded has a second volume, which is mostly windows nt 6.x (ie vista, seven, eight), the files extracted mainly from the vims. (who in their right minds actually "installs" this stuff: we use windows 2000 here.

Apart from the wallpaper, i've been saving the avatars (the goofy pictures that appear on the start menu).
