Stunningly beautiful high resolution photos from OS X


Recommended Posts

If you have Mountain Lion, open Finder, and point it to this address
/System/Library/Frameworks/ScreenSaver.Framework/Versions/A/Resources/Default Collections/
 
On Mavericks: /Library/Screen Savers/Default Collections

Or download here : http://www.4shared.c...HDDesktops.html
 
Copy them all to your Pictures folder or elsewhere, and enjoy the high resolution (3200 x 2000) photos. They really are beautiful.
 
Enjoy! :)

Care to upload them?

 

I'm not a fan of these file sharing sites but this is the real deal and it's reasonably fast: http://www64.zippyshare.com/v/76715389/file.html (the captcha gives you the download link).

too many megabytes!

How can I edit my original post to include the location of the photos on OS X Mavericks, and my Dropbox link that I posted in a later post?

You can't. There is a 30 minute timeframe for editing posts.

Not in Mavericks :(

If you dual-boot ML and Mavericks (which, as long as you have the disk space is far from difficult) you can use the same pictures as wallpaper in Mavericks as well.

 

Apple (like Microsoft) has habitually included several fantastic background wallpapers with the OS (typically the GM bits - which is why Mavericks doesn't have them yet); that they did so with ML (as was the case with Lion, Snow Leopard, and even Leopard beforehand) is FAR from surprising.

 

The fun factor is taking that same collection of desktop backgrounds and copying them to an NTFS partition, so you can use them as wallpaper in *Windows*.

It is in Mavericks.

 

I posted the location in a previous post.

    • You are mostly right about the ephemeral nature of it. As I mention in the article, if you dont add a second device or take a backup of your account before uninstalling it, then yes you will lose access to your account. That said, in terms of actual user experience when you sync multiple devices your message history carries across and there's also a Saved Messages chat like there is on Telegram to send messages and attachments between your installs. But yh, what you point out are correct and its not trying to emulate Messenger or Telegram.
    • OK so SearXNG is a meta search engine that you can install locally or use via a public instance. It scrapes other search engines which you choose and then sorts the results. Not as complicated as multiple relays
    • The only difference here is that you think you came up with these reasons. You didn't. These age old fearmongering lies (that were NEVER true) were funded by and the anger stoked by Putin through proxies like Farage (and later in the USA, Trump) and filtered down through the skinheads, Neonazis, etc. until it reached the uninformed, ignorant, and gullible -- never realizing they were being played for fools against their own best interests. Even now, despite all of the EVIDENCE proving that Brexit was a terrible mistake for ALL citizens of the UK and that its supporters were tricked by Putin's proxies into sabotaging their own nation, you're still here defending these well-known lies as if they were ever true. Not only are they not true. They NEVER were. So, when are you going to realize that you were lied to and actually get angry at the liars and charlatans who lied to you, instead of blaming the innocent people they lied to you about?
