Kccitystar Posted August 9, 2015 Share Posted August 9, 2015 Here we go.I want to make this an annual tradition. Most of my wallpapers are in 1080p or higher: I'd like to see what you're all sporting as lock screens and wallpapers Quote Link to comment https://www.mvpmods.com/forums/topic/57348-wallpaper-thread-2015/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gordo Posted August 9, 2015 Share Posted August 9, 2015 Got sick of all of the desktop icons, so grouped them and made large 256 x 256 icons for these desktop folder categories. Much cleaner.

Homer Posted August 10, 2015 Share Posted August 10, 2015 all 1080p or higher and randomized to change. i keep my desktop clean too, so no icons whatsoever. Got sick of all of the desktop icons, so grouped them and made large 256 x 256 icons for these desktop folder categories. Much cleaner. (2 different themes)how do you keep the icons where they are? i like laying them out like this, but for whatever reasons the icons eventually get moved Quote Link to comment https://www.mvpmods.com/forums/topic/57348-wallpaper-thread-2015/#findComment-662745 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gordo Posted August 10, 2015 Share Posted August 10, 2015 Right click on the desktop and pick "view". Uncheck both "align icons to grid" and "auto arrange icons". Also, check "large icons". (Icons were made from png's and IcoFX). Quote Link to comment https://www.mvpmods.com/forums/topic/57348-wallpaper-thread-2015/#findComment-662748 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homer Posted August 10, 2015 Share Posted August 10, 2015 yeah that's what I had figured. i do that already but every once in awhile the icons reset. windows used to have a function to lock the icons in place but that is no longer the case.

Gordo Posted August 10, 2015 Share Posted August 10, 2015 Like game manufacturers, they seem to think taking things out that are worthwhile is better.

Homer Posted August 10, 2015 Share Posted August 10, 2015 i'm going to be curious to see how this works in windows 10. Quote Link to comment https://www.mvpmods.com/forums/topic/57348-wallpaper-thread-2015/#findComment-662759 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Homer Posted August 13, 2015 Share Posted August 13, 2015 I liked gordo's idea, so i redid this for my htpc. definitely dig the new look icons. Quote Link to comment https://www.mvpmods.com/forums/topic/57348-wallpaper-thread-2015/#findComment-662790 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gordo Posted August 13, 2015 Share Posted August 13, 2015 (edited) That looks sweet.... it's a pain to manually space them out, but that works. My only 2c is because you have the busy color bg, why not make all the icons b&w?I also did this vintage Avengers one a bit back. It's basically the first cover splash pose for the big 4. But I took liberties with the coloring . Left room top and bottom for icons.

Homer Posted August 13, 2015 Share Posted August 13, 2015 yeah i thought about that. i'm still tinkering with it. I have several backgrounds it cycles through. but so far i didn't like how it those logos looked black and white so i kept them in color.

Kccitystar Posted August 13, 2015 Author Share Posted August 13, 2015 I've got a pretty nice looking linux desktop here that I'm happy with Quote Link to comment https://www.mvpmods.com/forums/topic/57348-wallpaper-thread-2015/#findComment-662794 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homer Posted August 14, 2015 Share Posted August 14, 2015 (edited) let's see it.and i went ahead and made all the icons black and white. looks much better after a few adjustments. looks really good with the color wallpapers. i just wish windows response for one clicks to open the links worked better. seems a little delayed.

Gordo Posted August 14, 2015 Share Posted August 14, 2015 Hehe...ya, that was a bit odd KC. You started this thread to show off wallpapers and then you only told us about the Linux one.
