Aquarium Backgrounds

The call is out

Thursday, May 5, 2005 by Frogboy | Discussion: WinCustomize News

Stardock is working on a new Aquarium Desktop but we need a bunch of high quality aquarium backgrounds to include.  We've looked around and have not had any success finding any (we need backgrounds that don't have any fish in them already for one thing).

So we're looking to the community to see what can be produced.  If you'd like to take a crack at making good wallpapers that have an aquarium (or even underwater) background that you think would fit this project, let me know and send them.  If we use them, we'll give you credit in the docs, a free copy of the program, along with a free copy of Object Desktop (or an extension to it).

My email address is [email protected].

Brad,

I may some pictures from my Desktop. Check the result at: http://edivion.wincustomize.com/photos.aspx?SID=4379&UID=715779.

All the credits go to Ryan. I have bought these images so other members can't download or use them without the permission of Ryan!!!!!!

I'd love to see something like this on my desktop:



I have that. Comes with Plus! XP. Its been set as my 'saver for a while.
The Plus! version just has a couple less fish. It's really a nice 'saver.

I have the full clock version of SereneScreen. Pretty awesome. Blows everyone away that I show it to.

This looks neat also.

That strikes me as what Brad is looking for. I think something like that would make a great background for an Aquarium theme.

I like the current background.
It will come with it too, right?

Hehe...that's a picture of part of my 55gal fish tank at home (distracted the fish on the other side with food). 

We ran into the same problems with the first one.  It's hard to find "aquarium" backgrounds without any fish in them.

This aquarium is different from other ones in that it is "live" on your working desktop along with application windows. The other aquariums only exist as a screen savers, as far as I know.


I have to agree with those that think this particular desktop theme, wonderful though it is, has been done to .
And, by the way, the plural of 'aquarium' is 'aquaria'.
