What has age got to do with it?

LOTR ... has an incredible storyline, its action packed

Sufice it to say, it bored me senseless. The only bit that was even remotely interesting to see was when the short guys were being attacked by the big troll monster thing in the cave. But even then, the acting was poor at best.

TRYING to STAY ON TOPIC HERE...

I just put up the boba fett wallpaper from SWG. It's pretty cool. Anyone find any wallpaper from the new indy game?

*Taos* · 02-10-2003, 05:54 PM

Notion, do you have a link for that wallpaper? I'd like to see it.

Right now, I've got a pic of the Bay Area, CA.

Notion · 02-10-2003, 06:01 PM

Here it is, Leemu: http://www.swgalaxies.net/artwork/index.php3?cat=3
It's got a bunch of others too. I see you all over Lucas Forums but never in the SWG forums. Guess you don't have broadband? SWG is scheduled for xbox; but with an additional fee.

Dark Sad Shadow · 02-10-2003, 06:23 PM

from Vampire the Masquerade Redemption

jediknight22 · 02-10-2003, 06:37 PM

**leXX** · 02-10-2003, 07:46 PM

I've changed mine to this Enter the Matrix wallpaper.

Aerothorn · 02-10-2003, 08:00 PM

I don't know how to post wallpapers....

Sweet, thanks for that. They have some nice wallpapers.....and quite a few of them. We need to get more here!

Yeah, I like to post all over LF, but I'm not really that interested in SWG........and you're correct, I don't have broadband, but that's not the reason I'm not into it.

Notion · 02-10-2003, 08:50 PM

To post wallpapers, click the IMG tab in the toolbar when you write a new post. Just right click on the wallpaper, go to properties, copy its source, ex. "http://sdjkakasljk" and paste it in the message that comes up when you click on the image tab.

Lord Glorfindel · 02-11-2003, 07:20 PM

I just got this one. Its a supposed deleted sceen from AOTC

Darth Eggplant · 02-12-2003, 11:39 AM

a close up of Tassadar in his Protoss Carrier
just before he dive bombs the Overmind
in Starcraft. (Hypersnap is great for screen shots)
*eventually will have to get Hypercam
so I can catch cinematics, then to get a saver
program which can take video files.*

I have the OST
for Vampire The Masquerade Redemption
it is so cool!

Darth Eggplant · 02-14-2003, 01:16 PM

lexx that is game quality good,
it's Friggin fantastic! and you did that with PSP?
I have version 6 myself and Corel 8

and maybe with concise lessons
forum members could learn to do
artwork of that magnitude.

I agree with Darth Eggplant,(if I understood him

) you are talented.

Isn't PSP, paint shop pro?

**leXX** · 02-14-2003, 03:10 PM

ok, I didn't do the pictures myself, I just combined them.

I have Photoshop 5.5 too. I freehanded around the girl using grey to get rid of the background she was on. To do this with any sort of accuracy, you need to zoom in at least 300%. Once I did that, I found the background picture I wanted.

Open up both pictures, drag the picture of the girl onto the background and position it. Choose Layer Options, hard light and adjust the percentage until you are happy with it. Experiment with some of the options to see what they can do. You can re-postion the pictures at any time.

This is just one of many many many things you can do with Photoshop. The way I learnt was to just muck about with it one day discovering what everything does. You do need patience though, especially when freehanding around pictures. The big key to doing anything productive in photoshop is using layers. Just drag and drop as many layers as you like and you can have a different effect with each layer. You just have to experiment until you find the right combination.

Good luck.

*Hannibal* · 02-14-2003, 04:45 PM

Thx.

edit-I found a tutorial about text effects on the web and made this.

02-16-2003, 01:24 AM

I have a nice custom Star Wars Wallpaper that my sister made for me in Photoshop.

It's quite nice ^__^

jediknight22 · 02-16-2003, 02:19 PM

lexx how do you get a banner under your name?

Darth Simpson · 02-16-2003, 02:28 PM

Darth Eggplant · 03-12-2003, 01:30 AM

Lucas store is

*Hannibal* · 03-12-2003, 10:17 AM

I edited the KOTOR ad. Removed the text on Malak and flipped it so that it looks like Malak's whole face. It looks cool.

Kstar__2 · 03-12-2003, 10:35 AM

i currentely have this one as my background:

*Taos* · 03-12-2003, 06:39 PM

I currently have a Dave Matthews Band picture as my wallpaper. I'm patiently waiting for a new Kotor one.

Kstar - I love that pic, I had that as my background for several weeks. That's just amazing work my friend.

Jedi Apprentice · 03-12-2003, 07:34 PM

I have A New Hope's original theatre poster for my wallpaper right now. Or I think it's one of the originals.

**leXX** · 03-14-2003, 05:53 AM

I have a UT2003 screenie I took the other day as one of my wallpapers, the other is a Panzer Dragoon Orta one.

Darth_Rive · 03-14-2003, 08:32 AM

A funny thing my friend said to to me a few days ago:

"Can you imagine taking your pc and all your games back in time 20 years and showing it to people who were then enjoying the likes of Donkey Kong and Asteroids?"

Food for thought....

*Darklighter* · 03-14-2003, 11:27 AM

My wallpaper is just a simple standard Windows XP one. It works

Treacherous Mercenary · 03-14-2003, 11:45 AM

I'll have to go and fetch a screenshot of my soon to be wallpaper when I can get my computer working soon.

03-14-2003, 11:10 PM

Mine right now is the KOTOR HK-47 one.

It's nice, very nice. I might throw a screenie from a game up some time though.

Darth_Rive · 03-15-2003, 05:34 AM

I just changed mine to this - it's a photo of a German catle called Burg Eltz. The reason that's up is because I have to make a 3D computer model of it for some of my uni coursework, so it's a constant reminder of it's shape and scale.

But I miss my Eliza Dushku pic!

MdKnightR · 09-05-2005, 12:52 AM

The motorcycle for the Ghost Rider movie that is coming out next year. (see my avatar)

Mira Dona · 09-05-2005, 12:57 AM

Heres mine, I'll put it up in case any SW fans want to use it:

MdKnightR · 09-05-2005, 01:13 AM

Super cool! Thanks! Here is a link to mine...
