Since the iOS 7 parallax feature now requires retina iPad wallpapers to be sized at 2524 x 2524, it has become rather difficult to find good wallpapers. The old 2048 x 2048 wallpapers are no good because they get stretched for parallax. So, let's start a new thread dedicated retina iPad wallpapers that are iOS 7 parallax ready. Hopefully, we can get a good collection going!

The only rule for this thread is that any wallpapers posted must be at 2524x2524 resolution. Older 2048x2048 wallpapers should go in the old retina iPad wallpaper thread. Requests are also welcome!

Here are my first efforts:

These images are 1024x1024 and will be very pixelated on retina screens. Please keep all images to 2524x2524 (as was stated in the first post).

Here are a few more I've found:

So sorry, OP! I just realized that you want 2524 x2524 only. When I searched, I read that 2048x2048 is the right resolution for the iPad Mini Retina. I have more 2048 by 2048 wallpapers but I won't post any more unless I know if this is fine with you.

Let's give this a try, for fans of Epcot, taken with my iPhone 5.

I customize my iPad rMini's lock screen with my first name and my iPhone number. At work one day I left it on the sales counter for 5 minutes, went back and it was gone. We sell to builders and the general public. I looked in the find my phone app, but it didn't show up. To make a long unnecessary story short, the manager of that department saw it and put in a metal filing cabinet. A few frantic hours later I found it, so now I use the app Over to add a very small line of text with that info. I've tried to copy the wall paper that I use on my home screen and use that, but it just doesn't look as good.
Can any of you magicians/artists duplicate this wall paper so that the stars still look like stars? I've not found a way of copying stock wallpaper and using it without stretching it, making the stars look funny.

Here is my current screen

Thank you so much!

Wow! Thank you for creating this thread! I've been searching for an app, or a website that has the correct resolution for iPad retina (parallax) wallpapers. This is great! I might just take the time to create and post some of my own now that I actually know the proper resolution ;)

What a useless thread. The OP deleted most of the wallpapers they shared and the others who shared ignored the request in the very first post to share pics 2524X2524 only and posted all sorts of low res ones. I don't know why you get dumped here when you click the "iPad Wallpapers" link in the iPad section, because there is nothing here but tons of iPhone stuff.

Try this thread, which is for the iPad. Lots to look at.
