OT - New Wallpaper Style

[AC]

If you guys think they are worth doing, I'd be happy to make wallpapers in this currenty style for other players and in other sizes.

So if you'd like it, and would like to see a different player/size, let me know.

And if you don't, let me know why not!

I like it, high finish and quality. But is there any point in seeing a slightly different view of the same player? Why not see Jarome, helmetless, mad, road uniform, horse uniform, fighting, you know different situations etc.
Other than that nitpiky detail...like I said, cool and great quality.
Oh and Dion would be my request if I had one and I hadn't just criticized you lol

Yeah, I know what you mean. But for this WP, I liked the consistancy in the pictures, because I think the home jersey --especially when its the same in all the photos-- against the background really stands out well.

man, i would love a good widescreen Flames wallpaper (1680x1050). don't know if you'd be up for custom stuff but to get a wallpaper like that with just a Flaming C in that same grey metal style would be awesome. if not that then i would deffinetly like a phaneuf of yelle version of that same wallpaper

[HPLovecraft]

Well, it was an artistic choice - and I like it! It looks sort of like slides or something. I'm using it as my background.

I second this whole heartedly, 1680x1050, grey metal, but with Iginla, Kipper, Phaneuf and Tangay versions

I also agree and would throw in Regehr.

No argument here.

Not crazy about the logo, but the widescreen size works. I think it would work better with the players in there as in the original.

[HOOT]

Can you make a Dion on, Pretty Please

Looks awesome dude! Can't wait to see more.

Edit: I like the way he is in all the same jersey not mixed and matched...

nice, looks good. and ya i'd deffinetly like to see a widescreen version with the players in it as well. also i think the logo version would fit better with the yellow border removed and maybe a bezzelled look to it, though i don't know how hard that might be to do

EDIT: to clarify in my mind i'm picturing the logo looking as if it were punched or stamped into the metal, like how a coin looks. if it were possible to do that it would mesh with the rest of the background very well IMO

I absolutely second this. It's so hard to find high-res widescreen pictures worthy of wallpaper. 1680x1050 or 1920x1200 of the gun metal grey with a Flaming C would be awesome (since I'm a fan of the team more than any one player).

Regardless, all of your stuff is great AC. Thanks for doing this.

Should have read the whole thread before I posted but thanks! Now we just need something with a little red...

I would love one of Lombardi 1024x768. And I think the one with the logo looks pretty good. Thanks

Personally, I'd rather look at an Australian sandbar I've visited, but that's just me.

I like the style. Only thing is it has too much empty space, but thats just my opinion.

How about a 1440x900 version of say... Ales Hemsky?

Those are awesome.

[Flamesguy_SJ]

I love the look of that. I think the blank space is a good idea, seeing as you will have all of your desktop icons covering some of the WP, and no1 wants to cover up the good stuff.

Going slightly off-topic now, am I crazy, or was there not a Flames mosaic after the 03/04 playoffs? It was made of pictures from the playoff games, and had the flaming c in red-ish pictures...be cool if anyone still had that or knew where i could possibly get a copy.
