    Windows Wallpaper

    I found the idea of it on a website, but then the link to download it was dead, so I just made my own version of it. Maybe somebody out there likes it and will use it too.

    EDIT: it's 1920x1080

      you took a stock image of wood, repeated it, and poorly drew the windows logo.

      needs alot of improvement.

          I didn't actually draw the windows logo - I took a stock image of it and changed the color of it.

          By any chance does anyone know how to make the logo look recessed into the wood? I'm using gimp.

          And also, thanks subin!

              ...Good thread.

              Try changing the blending mode of the layer the logo is on to "darken" or something that will have the texture show through, but with a darker undertone. Right now that just looks bad. After that, add an inner shadow to the top to make it look like the angle of the indentation is inward.

                              as far as i'm concerned, gimp doesn't offer blending options

                              and gaz's is alot better imo.

                                          Thanks for all the responses! Gazelle - what program are you using/do you think you could walk through your technique for doing that? It looks great!

                                                          It does. Just a pain in the ass to use them, the interface is not as streamlined as Photoshop.

                                                          Unless that's what you were getting at.
