I kinda like this one, even though it's only 1024x768... no big plasma screen here. :-(

@JimS

#3 is my fave! ... but...  I really wish all the letters were the same color... or nearly so.  I like the lighting fx on the background just fine.  I just don't seem to like them on the lettering.

Your font seems to be the real deal. :ThumbsUp:

OK, Easy enough to do with Photoshop.....
try this one for size.
Number 5

The Font is "The Real Deal" because it isn't a font. ;-) Back when I worked at an Amiga dealer, I scanned in the artwork Commodore sent us to use for advertising. It's a graphic...

Take Your Pick ;-)

Nice backdrops :-o
Thanks :-D
Now, how do I pick one...

I wanted to do some graphics in the late 90'ies, but I'm no good at that :-(

@JimS

Yes!  The font is perfect in #5!  Nice solid blue.  My fave color.  But I really liked the background texturiness of #3 better.

AmigaSpirit++ for scanning in those Commodore brochures.

google for "pixel girl presents" for funky backdrops, find one you like, then dump it into photogenics and embose "amiga" over the top with 50% transparency.

always a winner  :-)


Although I don't use an ameega, I use some of the walls linked from that site from time to time, applying some saturation tunes some of them nicely for my tango based desktop.

Jambalah :

Thanks...
I'm kinda fond of the pulpish 40's-50's art myself.
Thanks also for the checkmark... I lifted it from yours. :-)

I believe it! And I like it, too!!
Oh, I thought to give you all the logo (It's not my creation)so you can work on it in a much more comfortable way.

Anyone got some that are AGA friendly?

I'm after something in 1024x768 but what still looks good in 64 colours running on HighGFX 1024x768.  Everyhing I've tried so far either looks terriable (colour-depth too high) or uses up too much chip-ram.

I'm flattered that you might think so, but no, I'm not Jim Sachs. He is a real artist. ;-)

How about this one?

This is my current wallpaper, nothing to do with Amiga, and not safe for AGA. :-)
