Title: Post your wallpaper. Post by: Shiver on August 06, 2004, 07:58:05 am Hi. I'm used to just using a black background to increase performance from shitty computers, but it recently occured to me that my current computer is boss. So I wanna swindle a few good wallpapers from you guys. I have a nice one right now but there's *nudity in it so I'm not sure I should post a link to it.
*In my defense, it's relatively tasteful nudity. Title: Re: Post your wallpaper. Post by: Zeep-Eeep on August 06, 2004, 02:47:17 pm In your defence, I don't think many of us mind a little nudity, as
long as there is a warning with the link. I have a folder on my comp with various wall papers in it. ftp://veggie.is-a-geek.net/pics/wall/ I'll try to leave my computer up and running for a while, so you can all take a peek. There's no nudity, but some suggestive pictures. Title: Re: Post your wallpaper. Post by: Death 999 on August 06, 2004, 07:44:49 pm http://hepweb.rl.ac.uk/ppUKpics/images/POW/2000/000329.jpg
I can confidently assert that all the quarks represented therein are not naked. Title: Re: Post your wallpaper. Post by: Deep-Jiffa on August 06, 2004, 07:55:30 pm Well, I don't remember from where I downloaded my wallpaper but that is how it looks on my pc:
http://server6.uploadit.org/files/cyrax222-desktopfinalle.JPG edit: Mine is taken from some wallpapers pack, I don't remember from where I downloaded it but I can send it to you (about 5mb). Title: Re: Post your wallpaper. Post by: Shiver on August 07, 2004, 02:55:15 am Death_999, Deep Jiffa: Wow, those are both amazingly good. Can you e-mail them to me or something?
Haven't gone through Zeep's stuff yet since that sounded time consuming but that's the first thing I'll do when I finish this post. (Link has died) Title: Re: Post your wallpaper. Post by: Defender on August 08, 2004, 11:18:35 pm heres mine for today.

Post by: Terminator on August 09, 2004, 11:11:45 am Back when I had the HD space to run one, I had the Active Desktop for Metroid:Zero Mission, I can't find the link right now as Nintendo's site is incredibly confusing, and has looping tendencies. Currently I'm using the windows default desktop, which they call {none}
Title: Re: Post your wallpaper. Post by: Fsi-Dib on August 10, 2004, 04:00:03 am I happen to like lynxes, thus I have a pic of a Lynx (http://www.cs.fiu.edu/~flynnj/cats/new/lynx.jpg) as my desktop image. So sue me. :P
Title: Re: Post your wallpaper. Post by: Zeep-Eeep on August 10, 2004, 06:46:06 am I'm currently using the default Fedora Core 2 (Linux) desktop. It's a pretty blue/grey background with "Fedora Core 2" in the coner....Okay, so I'm not a big wall paper fan. I like simple, dark backgrounds.

If you were able to look at them you had them in your hands! Drag it out of the browser and into your file system, that should copy it from your browser's cache. Title: Re: Post your wallpaper. Post by: Shiver on August 10, 2004, 11:37:41 pm Yes, but it's got that button in the corner and I was hoping you had that in a better size. Deep Jiffa's is obviously not usable - it's got his start menu and other stuff on it.
Title: Re: Post your wallpaper. Post by: Deep-Jiffa on August 11, 2004, 12:40:54 am Shiver, do you have 5 mb space in your email? I want to send you the wallpaper pack...
Title: Re: Post your wallpaper. Post by: Shiver on August 11, 2004, 01:14:33 am I have 5 MB, but not a byte more. I'll keep it clear, but don't bother sending if it's bigger than that.
Title: Re: Post your wallpaper. Post by: Moronic Maria :D on August 11, 2004, 01:45:10 am These were the last two wallpapers I used:
http://www.deviantart.com/view/3869587/ http://www.deviantart.com/view/254968/ They're both done by immensly talented artists on deviantart, and you can view their main pages here (http://shirosynth.deviantart.com/) and here (http://weirdone.deviantart.com/) for more of their artwork. nyepyep Title: Re: Post your wallpaper. Post by: Fsi-Dib on August 11, 2004, 01:54:29 pm Deviantart sure is a hell-of-a-place to look for wallpaper. Some are off from this world. Glamorous works.

I can cut it off to 2 mb, since there are same wallpapers for diffrent resolution. What is yours? Title: Re: Post your wallpaper. Post by: Death 999 on August 11, 2004, 10:06:51 pm Shiver, that thing you call a 'button' is part of the picture -- probably a label on the slide. As you might notice, my URL is directly to the particle physics lab I stole it from. So no, that's the only size. What's wrong with automatic rescaling? It's already fuzzy as anything due to the nature of the image.

My resolution? 1280x1024, but size 1024x768 images are tolerable. Title: Re: Post your wallpaper. Post by: Pwnz Orz on August 20, 2004, 06:27:07 am Orz are not *home* Why not? It would be *looking*, yes?

Oh great, one of the guys from the other platoon wandered in. Let me tell you something about these humans, Marine. If you don't go out and buy a top of the line translator, they'll think you're out of your mind when you try to ask a simple question. Title: Re: Post your wallpaper.

Title: Re: Post your wallpaper. Post by: ChainiaC on August 24, 2004, 02:49:31 am Ghe, thanks ;)
Ofcourse dark in this instance can have two meanings. In the literal sense it is probably becouse my monitor is rather bright. I usually have to brighten images before I print them.
