Hi, I have an iMac 27", mid 2010 release. Since I have such a big screen, I find it difficult to find desktop backgrounds that are clear and not stretched or blurry. Any suggestions?

At 2560x1440 pixels, you will have a hard time finding some good wallpapers that fit nicely. One thing you might want to consider doing is specifying the size of your desktop in Google Image Search. Once you've searched for an image, look for a link on the left hand side titled "Exactly...". Click that and put in the dimensions (mentioned earlier).
