PNG's a better (smaller) lossless format and 1600x1200 is great! I always 
render my finals at 1600x1200 +a0.1 and scale em down later (while hanging 
on to the originals). I think sticking to the 4x3 apect ratio for wallpaper 
is good and I'm not sure why they decided to use 1280x1024 as a standard 
resolution instead of 1280x960 or 1440x1080. Shame...
