Frequently asked questions

What size is a 4K UHD monitor or TV wallpaper?

4K UHD monitor or TV wallpapers should be 3840x2160 pixels (3840 wide by 2160 tall). That is the native resolution of the screen, so the image is shown pixel for pixel with nothing scaled or cropped.

Can I use a different size on a 4K UHD monitor or TV?

Yes, but the system will scale or crop it to fit. An image with a different shape loses its edges when it is filled to the screen, and a smaller image is enlarged and looks softer. Generating at 3840x2160 avoids both.

How do I make a 3840x2160 wallpaper?

Open the PattrnLab generator at 3840x2160, pick a pattern and palette, and download the PNG. It is rendered in your browser at exactly that size, so there is nothing to resize afterwards.
