Are you sure the "sharpness" issue isn't simply one of having the proper resolution and aspect ratio? Usually, if your digital image is of sufficient resolution, then, given the proper aspect ratio and/or how you ask the computer to display the image, it will be nice and sharp. I'm a Mac driver, so I'm somewhat unclear on the details for making a Windows desktop wallpaper image. Nonetheless, I've got a friend with a windows box who wanted a photo converted to wallpaper. As it was displayed, it was a mess (it was a photo of a person), fuzzy and distorted. I re-scanned the photo at higher resolution and then saved it as wallpaper. That cleared up the fuzziness. It was still distorted because the display resolution wasn't set to a pixel count appropriate for the screen size. Thus the image was stretched in one dimension in order to fit the screen. I had to futz around with the screen resolution until I got it to display correctly (Macs handle this much better--well, ok they handle most things better<g>), but I eventually figured it out. Problem solved. Or maybe I'm misunderstanding your problem.
