DDAAF wallpaper.

[MetalMilitia]

No offence to whoever made it, but the wallaper on the site is somewhat awful so thought i'd have a go...

Tell me what you think?

I noticed one problem with it that text on icons becomes unreadable when on it but other than that it looks nice :/

btw, i have it in 1024x768 too if anyone wants it.

[MetalMilitia]

damnit, the more i look at it the more i hate the way the blood looks. any ideas on how i could change it? i think mabey a faint a texture might make it look better.

[pjalne]

Set a bit of transparency to the layer. I'd also recommend you put in an anime-related element lying around with blood on it, like a power tiara or a Pokemon card. And the address to the site in a corner or something, or a small ".org" after the letters.

Also, a wallpaper is a tad useless if you can't read icon text.

good thinking batman.

This Batcomputer isn't just here for decorative reasons, you know.

still hard to rread text it though :(

mabey i ould just make it a load smaller and say its a badge.

Garg, forgot ot put the URL on it too.

[whoreable]

thats actually pretty damn good.

[pjalne]

Yeah, not bad. Maybe the icon text thing will work out if you don't have that much contrast on the asphalt texture. That could make the skidmarks stand out a bit more as well.

Good, we need more wallpapers in that section. I had to whip up that one quickly just so we'd have something for site launch.

Anyway, MetalMilitia, I suggest a little more saturation in both the logo and the blood. Also, do you have versions for 1024x768 and 800x600 screen resolutions?

[MetalMilitia]

Ok so i very slightly increased the blood saturation, increased the saturation on the main text, reduced the contrast on the asphalt and slightly increased the transparency on the tire tracks.

1024x768 (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v37/176659.9/wallpaper_asphalt3.jpg) | PNG file - 1024x768 (6mb) (http://myweb.tiscali.co.uk/stefantech/wallpaper_asphaly.png)

The icon texts are slightly more readable but its still not perfect so i have provided the .PNG file for anyone who wants to modify it as they see fit (or just want to steal the nice asphalt texture :) )

[Mockery]

Ok, whenever you guys have a final version, just let me know and I'll add it to the site.

[racialslur]

Metalmilitia + Rez = :eek

think of the accomplishments!

[Shoeless joe]

Awesome man. Where'd you get the pokemon card, did it come with the severed hand you sliced off?

[horror_blood]

ogf

[ArrowX]

If your still interested in working on the wallpaper might i suggest scattering cards in a pattern following the tracks. It woul look like he lost his entire "Deck"

[thebiggameover]

or maybe add a hello kitty purse...

[MetalMilitia]

I abandoned it becasue it sucks then forgot about it. :(

Anyone can have the .PNG if they would like to mess about with it.
