This post is part of the free calendar wallpaper series. Each month I create a new wallpaper featuring the current calendar. Looking at the same image over and over again is not very stimulating. Hence having a new desktop background each month should help getting your creative juices flowing. January 2010 Calendar Wallpaper is entitled “Beautiful Day” and has been created entirely in Photoshop. I hope you enjoy it and I wish you all the best for the new year!
As always the January 2010 calendar wallpaper comes in the following resolutions and non-calendar versions are also included:
- 1920×1200 (suitable for 1440×900)
- 1600×1200
- 1280×1024
- 320×479 (iPhone, non-calendar version only)
