So we thought we'd provide you with some images to brighten up your backdrops — from a dreamy Bosch landscape to a 70's space colony, from an operatic "Hall of Stars" to an Antarctic expedition. We've prepped them for Zoom as regards dimensions, but they are sure to be useful for other video conferencing/chat tools that you may be into.
You can browse this first batch of fifteen images below (we're planning to do another next month). To download the full-res version (1920 x 1080 pixels) use the link beneath each image. Or if you wanted to download a ZIP file (49 mb) containing all the images, just click this link here.
As with our recently released colouring book, we are providing all these free of charge, but if you did want to donate something to help cover costs (every download does cost us!) then, of course, this is very welcome — you can do so at this link here.
