Hey all,

Was wondering if anyone was interested in making a Cisco Systems wallpaper. I work with their products all the time, and thought it would be nice for clients to see the wallpaper if I had wondered away from my machine. I can't find any on the web, and my Photoshop skills are about as basic as they come.

I think something with their slogan "This is the power of the network" and their logo, maybe some simple green lines and stuff would look cool.

Any takers?

Wow, you all have made some nice wallpapers.

Thank you for your efforts.

d3monn, I think your really on to something with you second wall, its simple and minimalisic. I also wonder how that would look with the Background in the green that Cisco uses, with "This is the power of the network" under the logo in red?

What do you think?

P.S. Bloodwork -- Sorry for using the wrong forum, I was in a hurry and I don't usually have the time to locate the absolutly best forum to post in.

Here's an update on the wallpaper, I was a bit bored and added a bit of an effect to the background and I'm working a bit more on making that a bit more easier on the eyes. Here's a shot of the both of them.

and this is a screenshot of the plain one. I think the green at the bottom could have a little more blue/teal into it...

the textured one is very nice. but the red fond is not easy on the eyes as it is.

The actual preview on the topic page is quite distorted, if you didn't do so, it's a lot better to look at. If you did, well, it could be just red is hard on the eyes. Either way, here's a version of the textured one with white text. Like you mentioned, it is a bit easier on the eyes without the red text.

I can make it a small wallpaper "pack" with textured/untextured/green/blue/white text/red text to distribute, so it adds a bit of variety. The only problem is filesize.

I agree, white is better. Just waiting on WinMaster before I post the final image here. I don't want to take up too much space on the server with 3 1600x1200 sized images. I'd post this on DeviantArt, but it's against their rules to use a company in the work, and since I don't feel like going through hours of e-mail work from Cisco asking permission and giving proof to DeviantArt and all that mumbo-jumbo.

Anywho, @WinMaster: PM me and I can post/link/send you a larger sized version of either the plain background, or the textured, or both.

Thanks WinMaster,

It's all good, are there any other request/suggestions for the wallpaper?

RE: the hosting, I might be able to get some hosting done. It's not hard to find a basic free hosting service. I might just open a free account at Brinkster to host the files.

    • Limited Prime Day deal sees Amazon Echo Show 11 is at its lowest price yet by Ivan Jenic The Amazon Echo Show 11 is currently $149.99 on Amazon during Prime Day, down from $219.99. That's 32% off and $70 saved on Amazon's newest mid-size smart display (purchase link below). As its name suggests, the Echo Show 11 features a 11” Full-HD touchscreen, which is a decent upgrade over the Echo Show 8. It offers 60% more viewing area, which makes a genuine difference for recipes, calendars, video calls, or any other scenario where the smaller display can feel a bit cramped. The Show 11 is built around Alexa+, Amazon's more capable AI assistant that can handle natural conversation. You can make reservations, order groceries, and find content based on your preferences, instead of always having to give it precise commands. There’s also the Omnisense technology, which adds ambient awareness, allowing the device to trigger routines based on temperature, presence detection, or visual cues. Smart home control is built in without needing a separate hub, and the home screen doubles as a photo slideshow when not in use. Taking all of this into account, the Show 11 is a perfect smart addition to your kitchen counter or living room. At $149.99, this is a strong Prime Day buy for anyone already in the Amazon ecosystem or looking to build one out.
