Community Wallpaper 2011
Monday, November 8, 2010 by Island Dog | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk
A tradition of sorts that we have here at WinCustomize is a Community “graffiti” Wallpaper that WC members put their tags on. One of our last ones is posted below. This is a perfect time to start another one (thanks to Lantec for the reminder), and so we shall! This is a great way to get some community interaction going, and lets make this the best so far!
We will set the release date for sometime in mid-January. Tags should be submitted by December 31st.
Things we need:
- Your tags should be posted to this thread only. They need to be a .PNG image with a transparent background. Tags should be a minimum of 250px, larger ones can be resized. Your tags should be your username or graphic representing yourself with name (no anime or things like that). Everyone is free to participate, and encouraged to do so!
- A new wallpaper base image. We have traditionally used the brick wall image, but I’d like to go in a somewhat new direction and I’m looking for suggestions. Please feel free to post wall images here. Wallpaper should have a minimum of 1920 widescreen resolution. The chosen image will have the honor of uploading the image to the wallpaper gallery!

If I may make a suggestion:
If you have more than one tag posted in this thread, please be kind to the moderators and remove any old ones you don't want used. (not all of the mods are psychic) If you update it later and keep it in the same reply there will be much less confusion, imho.
If not,I foresee a horrible mess by Dec 31st.
My 2 pennies.

Good idea. I was thinking of putting up a different one, a bit more colorful. If it works out better than my first, the first will be the 'first' to go.

So, just to make sure...... I'm not on the wall at all?
Cause I won't like that. I just wanted my name up there.....sheesh And that's Because Sydneysider said................. 
Are you kidding me?

Do we call you 'Bones' now? Good thing you got Medicine bag. Don't see them around anymore. But then again ... doctors don't do house calls anymore either. With one possible exception of course.

These are all just mock-ups and artists' conceptions. I'm sure there will be room for everyone on the finished wall.

Yes as i had said in page 4... 
I would suggest editing your original sig post with the new image and Put * Updated** in the Comments somewhere, as to make it less confusing for the one having to collect all the sig's to place on the wall. uploading a bunch of variants throughout the thread only lends to the chance of getting the wrong sig used.
I would suggest those with multiples posted already, edit your posts so they all reflect the same sig you want used in the wall.
Those posting sigs for others, Please use the original sig post, just edit it for each sig variant, Then make a new post saying *jims new sig* with a link back to that post.
yup right now folks are just having fun with the walls they have posted and sigs available, the official wall has yet to be chosen so there lots of time for new walls to be entered as well as sigs to be posted..

On the mockups...could we limit the mock-up to one per wall and just update that mock-up so we don't end up with a bunch of posts of the same wall with just a name or 2 added.
Also, please make sure that you post a version with "NO TAGS" so that it's available for the selection process.
Thanks!

the replaceing/removing tags was also addressed previously.

......and being overlooked. IMO, a reminder was in order. If not, then my apologies.
Reply #253 Monday, November 15, 2010 2:40 PM
it never hurts to offer a reminder

My Community wall idea without tags
Without tags Reply #200
Mockup of how it may look
With tags Reply #212
Did not mean to upset anyone....It is just an idea on how it might look.
I won't put any more on there until the wall is decided on.
Personally I also like DaveBax's last one. Reply #211

Having fun with it is cool, so I see no problem, bit yeh is prolly a good idea to just do the edit link thing.

Can one of the mods update the original post with the info on updating/editing tags/mockups in the thread?
ETA: I also like the wall with the big rock. It's got depth and scenery.
