New Wallpapers Needed...

AO is the main topic, but you can also talk about things like the latest console game you've played, web comics, movies, music, etc. as they pertain to your AO experience.

New Wallpapers Needed...

Post by Snakebite » Tue Sep 23, 2008 4:53 pm

We currently have 56 wallpapers in our store, mostly made by you cool players...

However (for no reason I can think of) there seem to be many more Omni based wallpapers than clan or neut.

What I'd like to see is the authors of some of those realy good omni wallpapers converting them to both clan & neut (or if not converting then a redo).

Here's hoping for some nice presents in our inbox... :mrgreen:

We like your omni wallpaper, but can you do some for the other 2 factions as well?

I'm not sure who did the 'Omni Blue' one, but I personaly would love a Clan version of that...

Actualy... There's one more thing we'd like to see with submitted Wallpapers...

When doing a Wallpaper, it would be nice if it was submitted in various Screen Reses...

For example...

Small (800x600)

Middle (1024x768)

Large (1280x1024)

Huge (1600x1200)

There is a real lack of the 'Huge' Wallpapers at the moment...

Oh and Snake, people only need to submit in the largest resolution - resizing is easy :)

I'll see if I can come up with some while twiddling my thumbs here at work ;)

Oh and failing how Kate? uploading or installing?

EDIT: I just need a few close up pics of a clan and neuter guard so I can use them for some wallpapers. So if any1 isn't too busy it would be great... I can't log in myself due to firewall restrictions :P

Newland Militia and High Commander Fred would be ideal close up screenies

Thx

Even I know that resizing often causes quality problems, particularly if you're resizing a long way, much better for them to be made in the different reses so that resizing is only at a minimum no matter what your desktop size...

EDIT: All Wallpapers are in the gallery section now
