  • @Jason, nice, nice. The concept art L4D wallpaper is still ugly though. Though do you have a link to that Transformers and Biodome image? I don't think I'll have much success with iqdb and screencaps of a youtube video.


  • recent update !
  • I change my wallpaper a lot, so it probably won't be the same for long. However, I'm too lazy to upload a pic every single time I change it, and I'm sure it doesn't matter all that much. As of January 19th, 2009. It's at 1680x1050, just resized because of Flickr.

    Can I have a copy of that wall?

    Sure! Hahaha, I gave up on finding it a long time ago, but it just popped up on 4scrape and I was desperate for a good wallpaper!

    Most forums have a policy of not allowing outsiders to download attachments. A Photobucket account or similar will be useful to you in the future, get one.

    I've got one, and unless I pay I can't upload more than 1024x768. The link is only temporary anyways.

    I think I already told him, or at least someone, on this forum exactly that. Other forums are NOT hosting sites, it's disturbing that this is the second time in recent memory that such thing has happened on this forum. That's two times more than on any other forum I've ever been! Those were supposed to be dumber forums! Ah well, it might be that the stupid things are more obvious over here.

    To all those others out there who wish to obtain the original to a variety of desktop icon crammed, taskbar obtrusive , gagdet ridden background images, try using the Multi-service image finder tool. Also known as IQDB, which probably stands for Image Query DataBase or something similar. It's also great for finding other resolutions of the same wallpaper.

    GAH! Set it to restrict the uploaded images to 1MB then! You can easily get a much larger than 1024x768 wallpaper on Photobucket that way. The only time you'll bump into trouble is if you try to upload an image that is both larger than 17" and 1MB. Which only happens with HUGE images. I told this before damnit.

    Here, take this:

    Click 'Save' after selection.
    ???
    PROFIT!

    Also, here are the 4scrapes for the two wallpapers I asked Jason about. Sucky Youtube quality was just enough.

  • Is that a pic of a Freddy Mercury doll?
  • What else would it be?

    I want to try and find some Dragonriders of Pern wallpapers but dragons and Pern in the same search might be problematic.
  • Is that a pic of a Freddy Mercury doll?
    IT'S AN ACTION FIGURE! AN ACTION FIGURE!

  • I wouldn't be able to look at my desktop without worrying they would run out of oxygen.
  • First screenshot of my desktop since I got my new laptop! It's Friggen SCHWEET!! 16" widescreen display, 2ghz core 2 duo, 4gb ram, 400gb HDD, ATI HD 3650, 4 usb, 1 esata, dvd burner with lightscribe, HDMI, Svideo, VGA!!! and only $850! ^_^ :3 And somehow the battery lasts for hours! It's sorcery!

  • Two things of note: Those nipples could punch a hole in a car door and look what's in the "sort" folder.
  • Sonic, link (preferably without the nipples, but I'll put up with that)?

    @ Omnutia- To sort pics from /b/, obviously. ^_^

    Now with 200% less nipple:

    It's a doll. What "action" would Freddy Mercury have engaged in? Judo chopping? I don't think so.
  • *sigh* It was the only decent Vista tan wall I had that fit a 16:9 aspect ratio. I've pretty much always used 2k-tan until recently, so I really gotta get some more vista-tan walls.

    The sort folder is for my sanity. I pretty much download everything to my desktop, so whatever belvedere doesn't sort, I toss into the sort folder. /b/ has it's own folder in my pictures folder.
  • Sorry if this looks a bit wank. The background pattern seems to be playing havoc with the encoding.

    The cat kind of reminded me of the book cover of "Kafka on the Shore":
