The name Digital Blasphemy was chosen because of the "Godlike" feeling Bliss experienced when creating worlds through artwork.[1]

The site is subscription-based, but a free gallery is available to non-members. Images in the free gallery are rotated regularly with fresh images and are presented in various screen resolutions.
Typical designs include science fiction and fantasy, space imagery, planetscapes, landscapes, cityscapes, seascapes, underwater scenes, interiors, abstracts, and fractals. There are also images depicting seasons and seasonal events, special occasions, and holidays such as Halloween, Christmas, the Fourth of July, Saint Patrick's Day, and Valentine's Day.
Wallpapers come in many display resolutions up to 7680 x 1600, including widescreen and multi-monitor formats to accommodate various monitor configurations. Only subscribers have access to the highest-resolution wallpapers. As of July 2007, many wallpapers were converted to display on mobile devices, such as cell phones and tablets, and the first 1080p animated wallpaper was created.[2]
Digital Blasphemy wallpapers were used in Stardock's weather product, The Natural Desktop.[3]
