Wrong thread. In fact, wrong section entirely.

Wow I posted this in the wrong thread, lol I'm not too right in the head today.

Modified someone else's wallpaper... (YARG!! Tried to find it to show you guys... and couldn't... but found that what I got was also an edit and it originated from a PNG (http://fc00.deviantart.net/fs70/f/2010/354/f/8/starcraft_2_wings_of_liberty_by_keyan3d-d359t4l.png)!!! Ffffff) removed some text and ugly ugly JPEG artifacts (because some people still save JPEGs with text on it)

UPDATED 7/16/2011, installed more stuff.

JPegs work by doing a Fourier transform (converts "position" to a series of sine waves of increasing frequency) and cutting out the high frequency waves (less information to store).

In other words... it just doesn't save the fast-changing parts of the image. What's fast changing? Text.

Using a compression algorithm is fine, just understand why you choose one over another.

Except with less bloodbath and annoying wingmen, of course.

Yeah, and with pretty stars and the sun, instead.

It's not to bad once you get the start menu back with a quick registry edit. Otherwise it functions just like Windows 7.

Except it has less features.

Thanks for Dark Halcyon for coming up with the initial design and background/reflection combination. I'm just tweaking it for monitor spacing.

Not true!! Some have very subtle differences like different eyelashes or tails.

But I know what you mean, I'd rather see some more templates. Slightly different poses even would be great.

Anyhow, I finished spacing out the ponies more to fill the horizontal space. Mostly just tried to make all the cutie-marks visible.

I'm away from my desktop at the moment, but I've decided to upgrade from the wet-manes background to my own hand-made silly-fillies background.

They are so ADORABLE!
Additionally: screw those icons. I cannot for the life of me get rid of the shaded background. I've tried every possible method known to man.

Using that.

How's that new wallpaper working for you, TeeKup?

"The competition"? What the hell was I thinking when I wrote that?

What I meant to say was that the whole burned city backdrop with a skull face kind of reminded me more of Call of Duty than Battlefield.
