2008 Community Wallpaper

Saturday, May 3, 2008 by Matchbook | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk

Does anyone remember, back in 2004, many skinners, artists and such alike got together and produced a community wallpaper, that we each 'tagged' with our grafitti?

That was about 4 years ago. Many skinners have since either quit, lost interest, moved onto greener pastures or just got bored. New ones have emerged and shown great promise, so I feel it's time for another community wall, akin to 2004's, just newer.

What do you think?

I've made a very suitable background for it but I shant post it until I know others are interested in getting in on this.

Let me know if you're keen on the idea.

Check out the old one

Cutoff for new tags in effect

I will now finish this long overdue little project.

Thanks, everyone, for your submissions and subsequent patience in waiting for this.

Much love!

you can specify where, on the wall, you'd like your tag: if you've any preference at all.


Somewhere that is a lighter color; spent about 45 seconds on the drop shadow, don't want it lost on a dark section of wall.

Everyone's welcome. I should have been more clear: it's not necessarily just skinners or artists. Contributors to WC, I guess.

The only trouble is, there's only so much wall space.

Size doesn't really matter. Afterall, make it too small and that's all people will see: make it too large and I simply have to scale it down to fit.

So really, when sending, pixel dimensions almost don't matter.

I'll be sure to cram in as many as I can while still making them all distinct.

Although I'd love to include everyone, it will be sort of a first-come-first-serve basis.

Please note that all submissions may be resized (down) depending on number of submissions. So the bigger you send, the better, really.

The wallpaper is 1920 x 1200 pixels at it's largest, so frankly, that's a lot more room than 2004's edition.
