What is your current wallpaper? Where did you find it? (files.catbox.moe)

Just found the one linked, I like it but I can't find the high resolution version, so I was curious to see where people get theirs.

I want to do a rewrite, it's got some silly issues RN:

Crops are stored in individual CSVs per image and ratio instead of a proper database and when you restart the server it has to reload all of them
The only UI is the gallery and the image cropping screen
To get to the gallery you have to type your screen resolution into the URL bar
Thumbnails aren't cached so they load into the gallery very slowly
I send 1:1 wallpapers to both my tablet and watch but when some particular art of Sylvanas that looks great on my watch gets send to my tablet while it's in landscape it's just her torso

Regardless of all that I think its still pretty nifty and I'd be willing to help set it up or you follow me on Mastodon I'll post there when I have news: @[email protected]

(I lost my hobby coding spark for a while but it seems to be coming back, though right now that's in the form of an Anki plugin that generates a flashcard deck by extracting data from the vocab app for a Japanese textbook called Genki)

You're very kind but I more thought it was cool than actually have the time to implement. My own wallpaper has sentiment attached to it too so I wouldn't want to change it. Congrats though - it really does sound very cool.

Ah that happens. Life gets busy sometimes and down time becomes a priority. Glad it's coming back for you. :)
