There are over 2000 images on the site. Do you have a good enough monitor to be able to display that many at once?

Just wondering, why would you like to see all of them at once?

Since I'm feeling particularly unhelpful, and at the same time, feel it necessary to show off the fact that I am a huge nerd, I found that:
Even with a 23" Apple Cinema HD Display, showing 2000 images at once would make them all about 1/4 inch tall. (.2985 to be more precise). On a regular-old 17" monitor, they'd be closer to .2 inches tall. Not exactly going to bring out the detail. :)

lol, I could go for one of those. How about having triple-monitor support with three of those? That would be awesome. =D

Winternight: Take a look at this.
I don't know how legit the company is, though. Some of thier products seem *too* good to be true... :-D
And with that, this thread is completely off-topic.

*pulls out wallet* how much is this going to be, price doesn't matter here. ;-)

I wish I could have that, that is awesome!!! Lets hope it isn't too good to be true =D

...Just looked up the price, a cheap price of: $17,500, ::shocked::. You could buy 9 powerhouse computers for that price, I'm suprised they aren't out of business.

I'm not entirely convinced that that company is *in* business, or just making up amazing stuff to make geeks drool. :-)

Well if their purpose is to make geeks drool, they did it to me ;-)

You can achieve the same effect with recent ATi and nVidia cards that have both an analog and a DVI (or two DVI) outputs. This would only allow for two simultaneous monitors, unless you wanted to buy another video card and the monitors to go with it. Happy spending :P

So, if I buy one of these, will I be able to veiw all the wallpapers at once or not? :)

Yeah, but it would be very time consuming to make it possible ;-)

Actually, those screens would be a waste of money, 'cos you wouldn't be able to find any wallpaper that fits the resolution... :)

On a serious note though, Caedes, I'd really like to view more than just 21 images per page, so I can just scroll instead of having to keep clicking "next page, next page, next page..."

I realize the load times would be a little longer, but I don't mind.

I think that might present a bit of a bandwidth issue

I agree with g8way that view many more images on one page could be a waste of bandwidth.
