I was wondering, if I wanted some 90's wallpapers, for my IBM PC, what site do you know that has old stock images?
I tried archive.org but often the old sites, there are, but you can not download the images ...

How about these?

If it has to be made in 90's, I guess you can search for wallpapers with certain range of date.
Maybe go to wallpaper sites and travel back to the 90's with archive.org.

I mean, a wallpaper site like this:
https://web.archive.org/web/20060901035410/http://www.wallpapergate....
Even older, which contains the wallpapers of the past era. Unfortunately many sites on archive.org do not work well. I was wondering if there was a current site that had old wallpapers in its archive, wallpapers that were there between 1995 and 2005.

No, unfortunately that's not what I was looking for.

Probably not as modern sites will support modern resolution screen sizes. You might need to do some resizing in an editing tool.

What I can recommend is checking for Stock Image CD ISOs on archive.org. You'll find plenty of Stock Photo CDs with high res (for the time) images with that sweet 90s aesthetic

@Karpour is right on the money with that. Archive.org is a very useful tool and has a lot more than one would expect. It’s a little confusing at first to search but once you get the hang of it, I have found a lot there !
