there isn't really a 'right' wallpaper size, considering most screens have different sizes, but the standard everyone usually makes is 1024x768. However, there are way more sizes than that, and people with bigger resolutions may not want to use that wallpaper because it's too small and looks funny when stretched, so usually there are multiple sizes for it.
As for the best style, again, there isn't a right one, since everybody has different tastes. You can make all different types of styles and find fans for each one, so yeah. I guess maybe a minimalistic wallpaper might be good for a lot so it's easier to see icons than messy, clogged up wallpapers, but check out some wallpapers on very popular sites to get a general feel of what to make. http://www.deviantart.com/#catpath=customi...er&order=24 ^ good site to start off with. |
