Motorcycle wallpaper
or desktop picture means an picture used as a desktop on a PC screen, usually for the backgroud of a user interface. Motorcycle wallpaper is the term used in most wallpaper forums, while the Mac OS calls it a backgroud picture.

Pictures used as PC motorcycle wallpaper are usually have graphics with the same size as the screen resolution to fill the entire background. Many screens are proportional, so an picture scaled to fit in a different-sized screen will often be the correct shape, albeit that scaling may impact quality.

People with big monitors have different ratio requirements for motorcycle wallpaper, although pictures designed for standard screens can be cropped to the correct shape without loss of quality.

motorcycle wallpapers are always available in double-width versions for showing on multi-monitor PCs, where the picture appears to fill a screen.

Some PC systems allow unconventionally-proportioned pictures to be scaled without change of proportion, to fit the screen. The picture would be sized just large enough that one pair of edges touch the edges of the screen, but not all four, as this would unduly distort the picture.

Smaller pictures can usually either be centered or tiled to fill large areas, and depending on how skillfully the motorcycle wallpaper was created, the tiling effect can look reasonably good. However, if the join is too obvious, or the picture repeats too many times, it can appear to be very redundant.

With the increase in color screen mobile phones, motorcycle wallpapers are starting to appear scaled to their lower resolution. These are often sold at a high profit to telephone users, although some phones have software which allows pictures to be uploaded from a PC. Mobile telephones with cameras can often use pictures from the camera, or from a received picture, as the dirt bike wallpaper.

Most display systems are capable of specifying a single-colour to use as the background in place of a street bike wallpaper, and some allow colour-gradients to be specified. Microsoft Windows 3.x and 9x systems allow using editable repeating two-color 8×8 tiles for background.

Some desktop systems, such as Mac OS , KDE , and GNOME, support vector motorcycle wallpapers. This has the advantage that a single file may be used for screens of any size, or stretched across several screens, without loss of quality.
