Hey guys,
There was a brushed-metal, or brushed-aluminium wallpaper, with the Puppy logo in bass-relief, like it had been punched out on the sheet of aluminium. I saw it in a couple of zigbert's posts, but I searched, can't locate it anywhere. Does anyone know where it is? Or, if you have it, would you mind posting it to this thread? I reckon it looks nice.

Zigbert don't have it anymore? You can also ask JebaJQ8, I've found his pet containing similar wallpaper at some japanese site, so it must be somewhere on japanese forum? Here's JQ8's pet:

It was right under our noses BK!

I had it on an old 4.1 install but deleted that save file. Took me some time to find it! Bit thick sometimes!

Exactly..would love that to be the default for 4.2...understand where WhoDo is coming from with 16bit image of that beach, and glad he is taking the lead on it, but would like something that looks a little more uniform and sharper with those default icons, something like this wallpaper or even one of the small stretchable wallpapers that goes a little better with those really nice icons...anyway. Yeah, that wallpaper rocks, dejan; couldn't agree more! 8)

I've got 40MB of vista wallpapers somebody could puppytize, any takers? (the vista wallpapers are actually very nice, I've got ~40 of them)

Mr Max

Sounds good but you can´t post 40M here! Can you host them somewhere and add a link?

@all others.

We´ve made some great wallpapers here, I love tis thread! What we should do is pick about 20 of them and pet them up and offer them to WhoDo to put on the repo. That way a user can get a bunch of typically Puppy backdrops fully installed! A no brainer! 8)

He already has a pet of the mini wallpapers so count them out.

Thoughts anyone?

Do you have personal webspace provided by your ISP?

See if Fileden matches what you're looking for. The login ads can be a bit irritating but it seems to be ok. I use it to host the games and pictures I post. I'm not sure what the maximum upload is though. Hope it helps.

Ah here we go, you should be able to post that 40mb file. Scrolling down on the main page indicates:
* Hotlinking allowed for all allowed file extensions, including videos and music files!
* 1GB of personal storage space.
* A 50mb maximum file size limit
* 5GB of monthly bandwidth
I didn't realize I got such a good deal :P

Ok here we go vista.zip. Beware that the download speed is going to be slow.

I saw a wallpaper on local PC forum that looked like pictures hanged in a room or gallery and thought it would be nice to try doing something like that in GIMP, well, here's the result :D
