Original Post: So this isn't exactly PowerPC related, but being that this involves PPCs and that this community usually is open to helping out with fun stuff like this, I figured I'd post this thread here. I've always thought that it would be awesome to have a complete collection of every desktop wallpaper included with every Mac OS version, ranging from the earliest version of System 7 with wallpaper support all the way through to macOS High Sierra, spanning in total 27 major OS releases and 27 years between the initial release of System 7 and High Sierra. So far I've put together Snow Leopard, Lion, Mountain Lion, Mavericks, and El Capitan into a folder using my Mac Pro.
I can easily get Leopard and Tiger, but the other OSes will be difficult for me to get the wallpapers from. I know someone by the name of has a multitude of beige boxes running various OSes, as well as a PMG4 running every version of OS X for PPC, so perhaps he can lend a hand with some of these Updated Post: Thanks to the strong community we have here at MacRumors, we have been able to track down and include every Wallpaper/Desktop Picture from every version of MacOS to date. This will continue to be updated as needed with new OS releases that bring new wallpapers, as well any new discoveries that might have been made. Thanks again to everyone who helped in some way with this project! This is a wikipost, so feel free to edit it! This is awesome! My favorite has always been the UFO ones from Mac OS 9.
Used to have those on my iMac G3 back when I was little. So, does that mean we only need System 7 and Mac OS 8 still? I can potentially get Mac OS 8 in a few weeks (at home, and heading out of town before then). Also, wait a second.
I know there's some panther/jaguar print wallpapers in one of the older versions of OS X, that I don't see in the dropbox with the other Lion/Panther Aqua related ones. Is it possible (I haven't downloaded all of these yet) to get the entire compilation as one.zip file someplace to download? Or should I take on that task? This is awesome!
