Wallpaper request

Something simple, subtle

Sunday, February 13, 2005 by ftr | Discussion: Requests

Could somebody create a wallpaper for me? I usually have a plain black wallpaper, because it goes well with the Core widgets when they are in green. I WOULD go for something lighter, but then the shadows on the widgets show up badly... on my current desktop the shadow only shows over parts of other widgets, so it looks good.

I am looking for something dark, but a bit more inventive than plain black!

My desktop is 1280X1024

Here's a shot of my current desktop:



Notice the shadow over the media player and clocks? That was what I was talking about...if the desktop is too light I can see a horrible shadow box which really doesn't look too good.

Ok, here's what I came up with. Still has black areas if you need just plain black. If you e-mail me at [email protected], I will send you the full size zip with a bmp image. If you want it tweaked, just let me know and I will do what I can.

WELP! I just applied the "green" version to my desktop, SD. That black wall is pretty good for someone who loves gray!

Donna, go to your guest book and right click on the image I left there to save it. Then delete the post. Best way I know to do it.
