New wallpapers

<div class="IPBDescription">Get hot, you artsy fartsy types!</div>Heya artists,

I'd love to see the new renders we have put up (as well as more on the way) work their way into some cool wallpapers. If you bang out some and post samples here, I'll take some of the best ones and post them as downloads on readyroom.org (after getting a zip containing versions at 800x600, 1024x768, 1280x1024, and 1600x1200 BMP and JPG). You might even end up as PR on other HL news sites if it's really tip-top notch. Feel free to use any art from RR.org you like. Make sure it includes links to ns.org and rr.org somewhere on it. Otherwise, go crazy.

As always, 'best' is our opinion, not yours, so if you are the can't take criticism or rejection type, please don't bother.

    What about all the ones Ramses made?   I currently have one of his.  Infact - I would love to see some new work by him - maybe with a lvl3.  Mmmmmmmmmmmm.

    *edit* Found <a href="http://www.natural-selection.org/cgi-bin/ikonboard/ikonboard.cgi?act=ST;f=7;t=3729;hl=ramses" target="_blank">here</a>  Yes, Indeed MonsE - I currenlty have #4 on now <!--emo&:)--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'><!--endemo-->
  • MonsieurEvilMonsieurEvil Join Date: 2002-01-22 Member: 4Members, Retired Developer, NS1 Playtester, Contributor
    Two awesome wallpaper downs, many more to go.

    Anyway you could make varying size copies of these and upload them here Greeds? I especially would love a 1280x1024 (so I can put 'Showdown' on my desktop. Right. The hell. Now.). ANd could they have unobtrusive links to rr.org and ns.org on them? This is art-meets-PR after all.

    <!--emo&:)--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'><!--endemo-->

    Update: Good catch on those Ramses wallapapers. I had never seen them. Some are defintely good enough to make the list, if he is so inclined.

    Update 2: You just added some links to bigger and smaller ones. Fast response!!!

    /me downloads

    I just threw up links to the various sizes.  I'll get right on adding in those 'unobtrusive links.'  <!--emo&;)--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=';)'><!--endemo-->

  • GreedoGreedo Bounty Hunter Join Date: 2002-01-24 Member: 37Members, NS1 Playtester, Contributor
    Ah, but simplicity and implied action are often better in a desktop wallpaper than something of the sort you are describing.

    And I updated them with the ns.org and rr.org links.

    Copy the URL, open a new IE, paste it in there and hit enter. Also, be patient, don't expect a reply sooo soon.

    Well, a link to my wallpapers was already posted here by SentrySteve, but I'm currently redoing them to a Contest-Edition with the ns.org and rr.org adresses. Look at <a href="http://de.geocities.com/dersohndeslichtes/wallpapercontest.html" target="_blank">My Wallpaper-Contest Page</a> to see/download them (I'm still uploading the zip-files, be patient...).
    There is one new addition, #3, the heavy marine... I'll try to add more wallpapers later.

    [edit]Sorry, but my webspace is full (both ISP AND GeoCities)and i can't continiung the upload so if you're interested in one of those, pm me[/edit]

    Here's my contribution... I toned down the detail so I could post it here, and I only have it in the 1600x1200 and 1280x1024 flavors right now, but I'm working on 1024x768 and 800x600.
