Post by: Manic Velocity on November 30, 2007, 10:50:04 pm: Is there a reason the sizes of the images were reduced? The dimensions on the original files are 1000x400.

And thanks, as always, for the compliments guys. :)

Probably so the thread wouldn't take eight years to load?

Background size would be amazing! :D

1366x768, please. :D Actually, 1366 pixels wide with proportional height (546.4 pixels, if I did my math correctly). Would look awesome in a "Letter Box/Widescreen" format with the black borders on the top and the bottom.

Very nice work, Manic. VERY NICE!

Post by: Bellthazor on December 01, 2007, 06:14:35 pm: hmm....looks like number 2...Manic also has them with text for the event as well...but i think who ever is posting it on the MXo forums needs to decide with or without text on the image.

Post by: Manic Velocity on December 02, 2007, 12:21:02 am: With text:

Coded: http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a170/manicv/challenge1.jpg

Non-coded: http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a170/manicv/challenge3.jpg

I left the text out because A) I figured the name of the event would be the title of the event thread, and B) people will know who is hosting the event. Also from an artistic standpoint, I felt the text detracted from the rest of the image.

And sorry, but unless you want a horribly stretched and distorted wallpaper, I can't make these any bigger than they already are. I mean, I could make them bigger, but they just wouldn't look as good since the source images I used were taken on a 19" screen. If I can get MxO to run on my iMac, I can look into taking some higher-res screenshots for a nice FA desktop.

Post by: Tecknik on December 02, 2007, 01:39:07 am: Oh well. It was worth a shot. :) Thanks anyways, Manic!

But I agree with you about the text. The images just don't have the same visual appeal with the text in there.

Can you link me to the 1000x400 without text? :D

Post by: Anamodiel on December 02, 2007, 05:33:44 pm: I don't mean to sound like an ass, but the text should read "The Furious Angels Presents." It's like that in all the movies Broin has made, as well. :)

Oh. I'd like to point you to this thread for porting Matrix over to Mac, by the way, Manic.

Yet another reason to omit the text. :)

I should have caught that actually, the grammar nazi that I am.
