Frequently asked questions

What size is a MacBook Air 13-inch (M1) wallpaper?

MacBook Air 13-inch (M1) wallpapers should be 2560x1600 pixels (2560 wide by 1600 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 MacBook Air 13-inch (M1)?

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 2560x1600 avoids both.

How do I make a 2560x1600 wallpaper?

Open the PattrnLab generator at 2560x1600, 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.
