: TWC Wallpaper 3 - Too soon?


Schmoo
I know wallpaper #2 was only just finished, but anyone want to contribute to a third? I'm thinking of trying to get it finished for round about halloween, and you guys could submit your characters dressed in halloween costumes.

Just leave pictures of up to 2 of your characters here with their names, preferably with transparent backgrounds, (They can be dressed up if you want, but you don't have to) as well as your comic's name and URL.

Reggie
i'll get on that

Bowser
Schmoo, just beware of the wallpaper's curse... When someone tries to use Photoshop to make it, they get swamped with other work. Beware the curse!

I might dress up a couple-a characters for this...

MaRiNe
I wanna volunteer to put it together.

Jed
Finally got my comic back on its feet so I might get involved this time around. The thing is if it's done for halloween and people dress their characters up, isn't there a possibility of a mass of the same kind of costume?

Bowser
Solution: Post 'em here. Remember to look at everyone else's first.

The Unknown Comic
didn't the last one take about a year to complete.

Bowser
That's 'cause the 1st person who was gonna do it left it to rot until someone else picked it up.

Schmoo
Hooray for interest. And about the costumes, even if a lot of people had the same one, you'd probably be able to tell which characters were which as long as it was clearly just a costume. Like Skoolmunkee's avatar.

MaRiNe
I can have this done by haloween start posting things.

Schmoo
Actually MaRiNe, I was going to put it together. That's why I asked people to post their characters.

Reggie
okay

here is a preview of my contribution

a higher rez file with them separated from the background exists here:

yeah.

Jed
Right then, I'll get to work on it asap, is there a deadline for submissions? Obviously before the 31st but I was thinking you'd be needing time to group everything together and make it looks nice and neat

Schmoo
No deadline as of yet...but try to get submissions in as soon as possible. And thanks Reggie, nice devil costume.

Stickmaster Brad
Here is Random Person dressed as a very bloody vampire!


The comic is Sticky & Blob-o at http://www.stickblob.tk.

Glasko
I think Lord Zedth would best fit in a halloween edition!
http://www.glasko.com/lordzedth.gif
Comic name is "Spaztic Plastic" and the url is http://www.spazticplastic.com
Thanks for puttin this together!

PS; He would look best over a darker part of the background.

EmoKid
I'm all over this one...I'll have something up as soon as I can

KCGREEN
I'm down for another go.

EDIT: I am in fact soooo down, that I got one made up already.

The characters are Lupin the Wee and Jeeganed from my comic Droop (http://drunkduck.com/Droop).

Reggie
we're sposed to specify character names and such?

well, the above characters are Emily and Jillian from Girl Bomb at http://www.anydayhappyday.com/gb

Schmoo
You don't have to give me their names, it was just so in the credits I can say "and here's so and so from whatever".

Slam The Chao
Crap mine is but...

Jed
This is Nat and Nick from my comic "Life, the Universe and Everything". The link below is a higher quality, transparent background png file that's close to 300k, so I thought I'd link it for you Schmoo as not to clog the board. If you want it any other way just let me know and I'll convert the psd.

Rao!
I just couldn't help myself !

I don't have that much time on my hand, so she's a bit rushed but...

It's Squish, dressed up as CardCaptor Sakura ( her main inspiration character design wise ) and as a bonus her teddy bear Castrate dressed up as Kiro.

BUT you should get the higher quality psd file down there.

Wee !

Schmoo
Ewww...

Rao!
Ahh, where's your halloween spirit ?
It's probably just make-up, anyway.

EDIT ABOVE: Still, just because I don't have much of a censurship doesn't mean people are like me, so I made it unto a link.

Sorry !

Jed
This thread seems to have died, just wondering what was happening with this thing

Schmoo
I'll wait for a little longer to see if anyone else is going to contribute, then I'll get started.

Stickmaster Brad
You CAN ask to get a thread Sticky-ed, but I guess it's a little late.

Schmoo
Finished. I was hoping for more people, but I think it still turned out pretty well. Thanks to everyone who contributed.

http://mysite.freeserve.com/chopsocky/TWChalloweenwallpaper.zip

Contains wallpaper for 1024x768, 800x600, 600x400, and Credits.

Jed
This may sound a silly question but how on earth d'we get the wallpapers? The HTML pages in the zip file don't seem to link to anything... and if they do the files don't actually exist on the server

Schmoo
Spuh? let me check...

chaos3x3
is it too late for my submission?
Im done with one now and working on the second

Schmoo
Well...although it's finished I might still be able to squeeze yours in. I could release that later as a version 2 or something...

KCGREEN

Schmoo
Thanks, what's you e-mail?

KCGREEN
capn_special@hotmail.com

Hydra_Vision

KCGREEN
oh, snap. you're right.

*SPAM'D*

Schmoo
Sent it.

KCGREEN
Got it. And thanks for almost killing my Hotmail account.


Jerk.

Schmoo
Yesss...file size was a lot bigger than I expected...

Stickmaster Brad
Ooooooh! Me likey! I like it a lot!

chaos3x3
Ooooooh! Me likey! I like it a lot!
me too. except that my two characters get cut off on the bottom on my computer. oh well. so whens wallpaper 4? lol

Jed
I think paper 4 should wait a while. There wasn't a great deal of interest in this special Halloween one. Maybe a Christmas one would be best next, gives a few months off and is another special occasion.

Oh and I get a nice gateway error, 504 or something, when I try to view them.

KCGREEN
that's keenspace's fault not mine.

Jed
Got it now, it's great! Hehe, the TWC Wallpaper Project, genious
