I want Mass Effect screenshots for backgrounds

Ok, so Mass Effect PC comes out soon, and I want some high resolution screenshots to use as backgrounds on my computers.

I was searching around Photobucket and Google Images for some high rez shots of Mass Effect and couldn’t find any that were big enough (likely because 1, its hard to capture images off the outputs of the Xbox 360, and 2, the resolution only goes up to 720 or so… I’m looking for bigger than that to run native resolution on my 24″ at 1920×1200).

So, first person that gets Mass Effect PC – I would love to have the following shots for backgrounds:

  • Citadel Rapid Transit loading screen (the view of the whole Citadel)
  • The Normandy Dock (where you can see much of the citadel), the below image, but bigger!
  • The loading screen or captures of one of the shots of the Mass Relay, (like the below, but obviously much higher quality)
  • Some of the planet skies were just awesome, those would be cool too

There are plenty more awesome scenes that would make good high-rez backgrounds.  I mean, I love my current backgrounds (color-tweaked images from Hubble), but I’d love some good Mass Effect ones.
