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.

    • From the incredibly asinine idea of disposable AI datacenter satellites launching into low Earth orbit to building out yet another unnecessary mobile network, this con-man will do ANYTHING to scam investor suckers and get his stock prices up. This stinks of panic to me. Good.
    • The "Drop" feature will also be retired 👇 https://x.com/i/status/2067838711870439583 . And here I explain a workaround to restore Edge's sidebar app list 👇 https://x.com/i/status/2065149359314829650 .
    • And they say Brits are better educated than Americans. Seriously, mate, the American Empire built the Industrial Revolution -- specifically via the transport and exploitation of oil. Not the UK. Whereas, the British Empire was built for centuries on the oceanic "spice trade" -- which "coincidentally" overlapped all of the places where Opium was grown, aka the world's only surgical grade anesthetic for ten thousand years. The British Empire was the first seagoing UPS (and even local dealer) of the Old World. For what it's worth, all mining, processing, manufacturing, and distribution are becoming robotic in the near future. And it will then make sense for everything to be manufactured (by robots) on the continent where those products will be sold. So, while no humans will be involved, manufacturing will become local again one day. PS Trump is a lying, fascist, ignorant, crooked, idiot **** who fearmongers the same racist, misogynist cowardly ###### used by charlatans, Nazis, and con-men going back tens of thousands of years. It's never been true.
