Does anyone have a link to the original image that was used as an wallpaper in this screenshot? http://s393.photobucket.com/user/Carceri/media/arcanum_desk.jpg.html
It would appear to be a heavily photoshopped version of this version of the world map that I just found by about 10 seconds of searching on google. Higher res versions of it probably exist somewhere.
A quick google image search finds no similar images, so it's probably self made. If you want the file you're best off contacting the photobucket user in question.
Indeed. An image search for the desktop image finds the desktop image. Nothing else. Judging by some of the other items in the users photobucket, you might have some luck at RPG Codex.
It seems it was initially posted on nma-fallout forums in 2004, as searching google images by "arcanum wallpaper" links there: https://www.google.ro/search?q=arca...hive%2Findex.php%2Ft-159198-p-2.html;1024;819
I did the "arcanum wallpaper" search as well and saw the same image. I just assumed it was at photobucket also and didn't check it out. Silly me.
I can't find it either, other than the exact same image as the one you were looking at. However, doing a quick search of "Arcanum Emblem", I managed to find this: https://se.images.search.yahoo.com/images/view;_ylt=A2KLj.u7qDpV.xIA_l8VOAx.;_ylu=X3oDMTIybTRwZzdzBHNlYwNzcgRzbGsDaW1nBG9pZANlN2QzOWZiZjlkOWJmYmI0MDI2Y2U1OTM2NmRlZWIxZQRncG9zAzEEaXQDYmluZw--?.origin=&back=https://se.images.search.yahoo.com/search/images?p=arcanum+emblem&n=60&ei=UTF-8&fr=moz35&fr2=sb-top-se.images.search.yahoo.com&tab=organic&ri=1&w=206&h=400&imgurl=3.bp.blogspot.com/_jj-oqaJB0hg/Satyh7-KtOI/AAAAAAAAABc/SZS3Rnk_VXs/s400/Arcanum+Emblems.gif&rurl=http://vgstencils.blogspot.com/&size=15.5KB&name=<b>Arcanum+Emblem</b>+stencils&p=arcanum+emblem&oid=e7d39fbf9d9bfbb4026ce59366deeb1e&fr2=sb-top-se.images.search.yahoo.com&fr=moz35&tt=<b>Arcanum+Emblem</b>+stencils&b=0&ni=240&no=1&ts=&tab=organic&sigr=10v6jrmhe&sigb=14fdjohuf&sigi=12rjk2fj7&sigt=10u3e0nr8&sign=10u3e0nr8&.crumb=P9vv8UjLHky&fr=moz35&fr2=sb-top-se.images.search.yahoo.com That's quite a long link... I'm sure you can use it to do your own art for Arcanum, if you have the skills.
Probably the original image has been lost. I have created a similar wallpaper for wide screen resolutions in Gimp: And searching for Arcanum wallpapers I came across this very cool pic of flying machines:
