Opinion on wallpaper inclusion.
Tuesday, October 14, 2003 by Arcana | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk
I see a lot of people post WB skins and link to the wallpapers...which is better? lower the filesize by separating the wallpaper from the skin or include it like windowblinds gives you the ability to do?

Yeah, like IPlural said. It's a personal choice.
I like uploading the wallpaper separately due to the fact that I make several resolution sizes, so adding 2 0r 3 extra files to the WB skin will increase the size of the file.
I take under consideration that not everyone has a fast connection, so making the files smaller is beneficial to those with slow connection.

Arcana, I'm a big fan of your Dark Temple layout for blinds. But, I would really like the various wallpapers that I've seen you do for this layout. Can you email them to me at [email protected]? Or post them so people can download them separately from the package?
I'm actually having trouble getting Windows Blinds to display the wallpaper included with the layouts. I don't understand why.
Thanx

1 other thing to consider is if you feel the wallpaper won't pass moderation, then include it with the blind.

Oh, and you can compress without any real loss of quality unless you try to get unreal about compressing...
