Wallpapers - FOR PERSONAL USE ONLY!

I'm taking orders for wallpapers you can't be bothered to make yourself.

Standard resolution will be 1280 x 1024 pixels to start with and I'll get a decent collection up before resizing them (to order).

Tenebra has mentioned that these wallpapers are fine, so long as they are for [b]personal use only[b]...don't let Tenebra or myself down by abusing it (had to put that in). If I find them on commercially available wallpaper websites, I'll simply stop doing them (fairs fair)

Here's how I'd like it to work, please bear in mind, I DO work for a living (so can only do so much at once):
1.If you have in-game pictures you want using, post them here first.
2.Pre-Cruise Wallpapers: I will createthese for you BEFORE the cruise - real life pics will be used as best I can (size of pic may determine what it looks like) - see Mercedes Cruise topic for example,
3.After Cruise Wallpapers: Ideally, the pics will have been posted under the cruise topic header - See topic: Coupe de Grace for an example. If you want to save the best pic for the wallpaper see the above notes on how to get it to me..

Can't think of anything else (yet), but if you have any suggestions, post a reply. If you don't care about this topic, then I'll take you off my christmas card list

Again, please understand, I'm doing this because I enjoy using Photoshop and out of the kindness of my heart (lol), whilst I'm at work, so some wallpapers may take some time. In true M$ style:Please be patient, lol

Depending on what I have to work with, will also determine what the wallpaper looks like (Photoshop users will understand this)

Looking forward to the suggestions....

I have no problem with you using my pictures or video stills mate, as long as it's for personal as stated and credit is observed.

Nice wp's btw. What exactly do you do at your job ? lol

Cheers for that one fella. That's my red lambo on the left.

I saw one this morning on the way to work. Bright yellow, but I couldn't see if it was a coupe or spyder.

It must be very frustrating driving one of those in that 50mph train of traffic. It's bad enough when you have a mere 310hp.

Then I hope you adhere to the appropriate ergonomic and posture measures when playing TDU!.... now if I had a pound for everytime I've been asked by the do-gooders to do an online workstation HSE assessment this year!

I thought maybe I'd contribute back. Can't remember which cruise (European I think):

Edit: What an idiot! It was the Coupe de Grace cruise.



Click for 1280 version.

Lol...too true, but it was the best i could manage with the time given to me (i.e. none cos the boss was hovering around....), lol.

Was a complicated picture to work with though cos the composition of the picture had very little to work on. I know, I know zebra effect on mass, but hey, its free for everyone so I'll pretend you weren't taking the pi*ss, lol

LOL no insult intended mate, I appreciate that the end result is directly linked to the quality of the starting image. I have it all the time for Photography. I forget filters and stuff like there is no tommorrow, then I think (I'll just fix it in photoshop) but its never as good.

Although my worst sin is travelling light without a tripod, and trying to stitch freehand photos together into a panorama.... I should have learnt by now, but I keep doing it.
