You don't need to know popular sizes, just make sure your wallpapers are made for 16:9 and 16:10 aspect ratios. If you need to choose between the two, 16:9.andyman wrote:Asking because I want to make a desktop wallpaper series, and don't know the popular sizes so the top three responses will be the ones made.

5:4 can fuck off

I've got a rad false-colour shot from a Mars rover of a giant crater filled with martian sand dunes... can you top that?

wouldn't the aspect ratios be more important than the actual resolutions? make a 1.77:1 version and a 1.6:1 and you should be good.

Yes, didn't realize that until I re-tallied by aspect ratios and found that it's mostly 16:9 and 8:5. Currently it's 5-4, with 8:5 winningmenkent wrote:1440x900

SO, right now those two are the main numbers. I probably couldn't match the mars rover as far as unique images, but the set is still something i want to do anyways.
thx for the help! Hard part will be picking the images and making them desktop worthy
