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!

Can anyone make a community wall and post it as a thought for use?

absolutely! the more the better.

The artist creating the background wall chosen will be the one to upload the final wall(s) to the library. The reason we went with 1920 x1200 as the base size is so it can be downsized to the other various resolutions.

Background artists should keep this in mind and possibly leave a bit of "non signature" area on each end so that going from 16:9 to 4:3 doesn't require cutting off anything important. IE windows or gates or a corner.....you get the idea.

It says original 1600x1000 but I actually uploaded 1920x1200. I have no idea what to do different uploading.

You want a wall. I'll give you a wall. Here's a wall.

It's made of carbon so it'll be strong enough to hold all those tags.
