Tell me what you think of this
Saturday, February 4, 2012 by mrs_starkers | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk
I have done a series of wallpapers called Be mine and there is four of them but with different colors they are for valentines day. I did them all 1024x768 and all in on zip so that you can pick and choose which one you want, the only reason is that it saved time rather than doing them all separately.... feed back and comments greatly appreciated.
this the 4th one . 
the 5th
this is the 3rd one.
2nd
1st one

That's very nice work, Shaunna. The only problem I can see is the size of them. I don't think 1024x768 is that common for monitors these days. Take a look at some of the wallpaper sizes in the wallpaper galleries and see what size they are. I use 1920x1080 myself, though it may be different for others.
Very nice work though.

great thanks cos I don't know which are the best sizes, as I always used them back in the days when I first started, and that was way back when cindi and troy were both on here at the time so yeah thanks for your help guys its great

Mine is 1600 x 900 and they all look great. Should resize without a problem.

1920x1200
1680x1050
And zip 'em up together.
But Po' and Harley (who are serious wall artists) would tell you to make them huge (while you're creating them). Take a peek at the wall sizes in Po's latest...
*edit: 1920x1080 should be added as well.

Always easier to resize down than up. I've never understood how you'd create a wallpaper image at 16:10 ratio and resize it to 16:9, or 4:3 though.

Here's a handy chart to show aspect ratio and screen resolution.
If you make a large size for each aspect ratio, they will downsize just fine. So, nice walls and I vote for 3 sizes.
4:3= 1600x1200
16:9=1920x1080
16:10=1920x1200

Thanks for the feed back I have resized them at, 1600x1200, 1680x1050,1920x1080, and 1024x768 hope these are ok

Ok here we go, I am about to upload them now, I am keeping everything crossed that they make the front page as I have gone to a lot of effort and sweat and tears over it as to weather they are good enough to upload here, I hope so 
wish me luck lol 
........ They are in moderation now

Might be a bit late now, but my advice would have been to include versions with no text on them. Many people don't like text on their walls. (Although I am often guilty of it myself.... lol)

Thanks Uvah, oh ok thanks for that Boxxi, hmm oh well next time , it would be a shame if they don't make it to the front page, it would make my day and give me more confidence to do more and get better at them ...... juust off topic, you will never guess who I spoke with today?????? Sk originals yes thats right Sk aka shawn he is well .

These are amazing mrs_starkers. I like the 3rd the most it gives off a very warm feeling with passion. But I agree with BoXXi too. Text on a wallpaper isn't so good unless it's a logo of some kind. But great work though!

Here is another preview of a new wallpaper I have finished, I call this one Pods, I am ready to upload this and it does come in the sizes that have been recommended by some of you.
