Need Your Help
First of all, many thanks to our friendly mod 
etoilepb. Seeing as this is slightly OT for the comm, I've asked for permission beforehand, and she was so kind as to reply swiftly, grant permission and even offer some insight.
And now, to ask for your help: I've made this short poll on Screen Resolutions/Wallpapers usage, and I'd really appreciate it if you could go and fill it in.
The reason behind this poll is that, as icon makers, we all know the drill: 100x100, less than 40K and some such. But when it comes to wallpapers, things aren't this black or white. People have different screen resolutions. Some wallpapers can be resized without quality loss, some can't. Some people can resize it themselves, some can't. What to do then? What are the most used resolutions? What do people do when the wallpaper they like isn't the right size?

If you choose 'other' for the previous question, please insert here your resolution
You've found this cool wallpaper you'd really like to use, BUT it's too small.
I use it anyway, let Windows resize it!
50(23.4%)
I download it and use my graphic program to resize it.
60(28.0%)
I'd rather ask for the author to, please, resize it for me (since, being the author, they are more likely to have a good, uncompressed source image of the wallpaper that can be resized without major quality loss).
11(5.1%)
Sigh, tough luck, I'll find something else the right size.
