National Geographic is one of the largest non-profit scientific and educational institutions in the world.

 

Over the years, it has also been a great source of amazing photos and wallpapers that mesmerized people from around the globe.

 

Some of the most beautiful wallpapers have been placed online, on the National Geographic website, but due to their large number, downloading them has been a problem until now.

 

With NatGeo Wallpaper Downloader you can download over 5000 National Geographic wallpapers with just one click.

 

Future builds will add even more packs like: History, Adventure, Traveler, Sea Monsters, Seabed, Blue Earth, Green Earth, Forces of Nature, Lewis & Clark, Roar and many more! (As you can see, I have my hands full, so don't miss out on these great wallpapers when they'll be added!)

 

Be advised: Downloading wallpapers can take a while if you're on a slow (modem/ISDN) connection! If you're not using a high-speed connection I'd advise you to download the wallpaper packs one by one.

 

Usage:

  1. Take a look at both categories (Natgeo Magazine Walls & Natgeo Website Walls)
  2. Check the collections you'd like to download
  3. Select the resolution for each collection (if you're not sure of your screen's resolution, press Get Resolution)
  4. Select the download folder (if you don't want them being placed on the desktop)
  5. Press Start Download!

Plans for the future? (This time I'm not calling it a "to-do list", since I'm not sure I'll be able to make all these changes possible) Well, a lot more wallpapers, of course (so please don't forget to press the Support button and select at least one of the options that will enable you to stay up-to-date with future releases), most probably a two-tabs (Magazine/Website) main interface, a shutdown when download process is over option, a faster resume alternative, and, hopefully, I'll be able to add a simple wallpaper changer mode and a Windows 7 theme creator (the last two basically have the same functionality, but themes are very easy to share with family and friends or other computers - so, sharing your favorite wallpapers will be a lot easier).

 

If you have a few ideas of your own, please don't hesitate to post them on the Support Forum.
