Wilson Posted December 4, 2009 Share Posted December 4, 2009 So, what do we redesign the entire thing or just change the background of it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon Brown Posted December 5, 2009 Author Share Posted December 5, 2009 I've made the explanation clearer (or added one, even :oops:). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon Brown Posted December 8, 2009 Author Share Posted December 8, 2009 Couldn't this just end up being a wallpaper? Except that lock screen backgrounds don't need to be designed around the desktop and can be slightly more distracting (I don't mean animated).

Simon Brown Posted December 11, 2009 Author Share Posted December 11, 2009 I didn't write it, I just linked to it. If anything, this blogger deserves credit for discovering the feature. As for your question, yes, but not if it's been posted before on this forum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Possum Roadkill Posted January 8, 2010 Share Posted January 8, 2010 Will no-one else enter? I don't want my sad excuse for an entry being the winner by default I'm working on one (or trying to), and your image is far from lame. I really like it ! I like your work.

Possum Roadkill Posted January 14, 2010 Share Posted January 14, 2010 Sorry to double post. Simon I have a question about this rule "Entries can be edited at any time up until the poll goes up." Does this mean I can post the image I have now and then replace it with a different one before the deadline if I choose to? Thanks !

Possum Roadkill Posted January 16, 2010 Share Posted January 16, 2010 Simon, sorry to keep bugging you, but I have another question. I have created two images for the competition, but I'm not really happy with them at this point. The reason being that I am trying to recreate the look of the actual log-in screen with the log-in box, Windows 7 logo, Start button, and so on. Are these items required, preferred, or optional ?

Simon Brown Posted January 17, 2010 Author Share Posted January 17, 2010 The avatar, username, lock status, password box, switch user button, windows 7 logo and "ease of access" button aren't included in the background. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sokagirl Posted February 23, 2010 Share Posted February 23, 2010 So many nice entries , mine really bites .. Heh heh , I'm no good at wallpapers because my screen is so small and I can't work well with huge resolutions so the biggest I could make was 1076x768 .. But it's okay it's all for fun ^_^ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goonfella Posted February 23, 2010 Share Posted February 23, 2010 I know what you mean. I had the same problem with my last laptop. 800x600 was the best size for me but this new one allows me to comfortably fit 1200x900 onto the screen which is perfect.

sokagirl Posted February 23, 2010 Share Posted February 23, 2010 Heh heh I cringe every time someone asks me what size screen I have :oops: I so need a bigger one I think it's going to be one of my goals to do that then I can create better things , glad to hear you got a bigger one :wink: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goonfella Posted February 23, 2010 Share Posted February 23, 2010 Not bigger - just a higher resolution. :wink: Quote   Please feel free to visit my Gallery on PDNFans And my Alternatives to PDN Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frontcannon Posted February 27, 2010 Share Posted February 27, 2010 Excuse me, but that you are allowed to contribute more than one entry is the most unfair thing I've ever seen in a competition. If I enter with 10 entries, my chance of winning increases extremely, but where would be the fun? I'll withdraw my entry if this doesn't get changed. :evil: Quote Night Vision Text Effect Tutorial Gallery reddit.com/r/futurebeats | My Mixcloud Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon Brown Posted February 27, 2010 Author Share Posted February 27, 2010 People are voting for entries, not users directly. Obviously their chance of winning depends on the whether those entries are actually good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
