I have seen that tunnel somewhere before. Is this a modded wallpaper?

NO! It most certainly is not. For future reference, if I ever feel the need to borrow from someone elses work, I will say so within the submission post and apportion credits accordingly!

lol No need to get uptight. I only mentioned it because it looks near identical to a wallpaper I have seen before.

I'm sure I'm not the only designer who is growing exceptionally sick and tired of not being able to create images these days without someone questioning the integrity of the source.

Would you like the PSD file as proof? In fact, wait a few days, and all my PSD's will be available for download anyway to help those who need a kick-start with their own Phostoshop works.

All I asked was if it was a modification of an existing image. I could care less. I was only curious because it looks very similar to something I have seen once before. I am not accusing you of anything so there is absolutely no need for this attitude. Calm down. I believe you. Geez....

damn, nice ones, can you make 1024x768 ones? Thanks for the pics.

I'm pretty sure that they resize in any graphics editing software (Paint Shop Pro, etc) without distortion. This is why I've designed at 1600 -- integrity wise, you keep better detail when scaling down than you do when scaling up. However, I don't believe you need to.

One of them certainly looks fine on my partner's PC with no extra work involved, other than using the Windows stretch at 1280x1024. I can't see that 1024 would be any different.

If I create new ones at 1024 then I'll have to create 800, 1280, etc. I've taken the lazy route and given 1600's.

Sorry, I hope you can understand the problem. The original PDSs will be available shortly anyway, as soon as I can find time to do the tech stuff.

sw33t i really like it :D, maybe a grey coloured one?

lol I thought and thought yesterday about creating a gray one. I finally figured, no, nobody would use it.

Gray coming up. Any more colour requests from anyone? I won't do any adjustments until end of day today, so get your colour requests in now as I want to move onto another project pretty swiftly.

"could u make a white/silver one and the balls should have different colors"

Will do.

"silver/olive green"

Will do.

Now I need to get some work done. Just because I don't acknowledge any more colour requests today, it doesn't mean I won't do them. I'm just too busy to acknowledge each one. So request away. I'll hit them all later today.

Thank you all for your kind words. Appreciated.

Great wallpapers, but one thing is bugging me. You've shown you know how to use Photoshop, so why does that blue background not follow the lines of the metallic bevel underneath in your sig? Kind of ruins the effect. I'd either lose the dark gray tints at each lower corner or curve the blue box.

Just call me the graphics pedant.

No worries. As mentioned before, I'm always ready to hear sensible critiques.

The answer, in short, is because it's just a sig. I confess to not really putting any great effort into them. I'll be sure to spend a little more time on the next.

Thanks for your comments.

Regards

S.

    • I bought this game. Played it for an hour, and then got a refund from Steam. Not a fun game at all.

    • Forza Horizon 6 gets another hotfix for one of the game's online modes by Taras Buria Recently, Forza Horizon 6 players discovered an interesting glitch that allowed farming a crazy amount of in-game credits in a few minutes. Playground Games quickly pulled the plug on the exploit by disabling one of the game's online modes, and today, the studio is rolling out another hotfix. In my review, I complained about the game still showering gamers with cars, credits, and wheelspins. As such, earning money in Forza Horizon 6 is not a particularly difficult task. You simply have to play the game, crazy, I know. However, people still found an easier path to becoming a billionaire in Forza Horizon 6. All you had to do was purchase the Hummer EV, install a specific tune, shift in reverse while going at about 15 MPH, hit a wall, and get launched into the stratosphere at the speed of light. While mid-air, launch Eliminator and quickly get eliminated. Boom, the game just awarded you with a few million in-game credits. Initially, Playground Games disabled Eliminator to prevent people from farming credits. Now, following the release of the first balancing update, developers are rolling out a new update that re-enables Eliminator and gives users a free McLaren Sabre as a gesture of goodwill. Here is the changelog: One critical issue remains unpatched, though. There are quite a few reports of the game wiping gamers' saves, and developers are still looking into that. To avoid potential data loss, Playground Games recommends taking one of the steps outlined in a previously published support article.
