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!

Well I give up. Uploaded image to imageshack, copied the Direct link, clicked on the tree and pasted the link than posted it and it was here. Shut down for 15 minutes and came back and it isn't here. Was right here under Uvah where this comment is. Hope he didn't like it so much he took it.

Based on teh style of teh submissions, teh brick wall may not be the best fit any nmore.  I like what you came up with.  Interesting direction.

Looks like the right edge needs cleaning up...lol.  Sorry.  But the wall won't be white, and it probably won't show. 
Shows what the Redneck knows.

I'll repost mine, it needs a touch up.

firebrick . .you'll need to remove your background and use a transparency instead.  That background won't work on another background.

Good idea on the wall, but I will have to change my tag also. I was expecting it to have a brick background.

Can we get a heads up on which wall will be selected. Just so some of us can change our tag if needs be.

Hopefully there will be a plethora of walls submitted to pick one from.

I would hold off on doing any tag edits till we get a winner in the wallpaper portion.

Nice bones Doc. If they took a Xray of you they would probably look the same.

Who said that.
