img9, originally known as WOOD TEXTURE, is a wallpaper included in Windows Vista, licensed from Getty Images. It was taken by Chuck Kuhn. It depicts a piece of knotted wood. It is worth noting that the version that appears in the final release is slightly darker and blurrier in each corner; this effect was not present in neither the original image nor the beta 2 version. It became a restricted asset in early 2020 when Getty discontinued rights-managed licensing in favor of royalty free licensing; it was not converted to royalty free, so it was taken down in late 2020.
