CobaltSS.net Wallpaper
CobaltSS.net Wallpaper
Im putting a challenge out there for all of you photoshopping wizards to create some type of cobaltss.net wallpaper.
The reward?
Satisfaction in knowing that hundreds of Cobalts Lovers are using your wallpaper nationwide. haha
Ive seen some really creative stuff photoshopped before, just wondering if anyone has anything in the works.

1600x1200 here. accept no substitutes!
When I design wallpapers (which these days is a rare thing...) I always go with 1600x1200
(there are several good reasons for this, short answer is if you design a wallpaper for 1280x1024 then you are designing it to look correct on less than 15% of internet users screens, while 1600x1200 is proportionally compatible with more than 80% of internet users screen settings so the image wont end up being cropped or squished. {percentages based on July 2005 estimates})
If I find the time I will make something... Currently all I had done was a super quick one using MarcS's great photo of his car (I believe there is another thread on here with people's desktop snapshots.. and mine is visible there).
