Sometimes I like to go back through the archives of a gallery to see what people were uploading to the site "back in the day" and I'm discovering that, in some cases, that some things were better back in "the good old days".  Wallpapers being chief among them.  Well, more specifically, the wallpaper gallery back when Nuvem was still on the site.

It was Koop who turned me on to Nuvem's wallpapers back when I first joined Stardock two years ago.  His work is of such stunning quality, it's hard to imagine many people coming around now and topping it.  With his last wallpaper submission almost 4 years ago (April 24th, 2004), the wallpaper gallery, and the site, has definitely lost a killer artist.

Here are some of my absolute favorite Nuvem walls...

And of course, my #1 favorite of his...
