Windows 7 RC Wallpapers

By Mauricio Freitas, in , posted: 1-May-2009 01:00

I have been playing with Windows 7 Release Candidate and before I write a more complete post with all the new stuff, here is a series of screenshots of the new wallpapers supplied.

These wallpapers are arranged in Themes. Themes can have more than one wallpaper and you can select to rotate between these images on a set timer.



They are trully beautiful images and it's probably the first time I enjoy using the default wallpapers provided by Microsoft.

Characters:













Landscapes:













Scenes:

Is it just me that's having a problem with selecting multiple pictures for backgrounds and have it work for a while then one day just quit shuffling?

Your mouse stays in the same spot. How did you take these?
