My North Dakota Wallpapers

[Big A HG]

Alright, a little later than promised, but better late than never. Here are the November wallpapers, enjoy. Again, I have a couple different sizes, and each version with and without a calendar so you can use them year-round if you want (or if you just don't like the calendar).

Widescreen with Calendar (1680x1050):

Thanks so much...the blood wallpaper looks like it was made to go with the theme I already had on my desktop and my calendar! Perfect!

Not yet, but I've been getting ideas. I should have one ready by the beginning of December.

Is everyone liking doing the current players, or should I switch it up and do like a commemorative version in honor of a title team or something? The only hard part about doing an old team is that the pics are a lot smaller and lower resolution, making it tougher for larger wallpapers to like nice...unlike the ones I've been doing with current players.

I like the current players, but if you could find a nice picture that would work with the older teams that would be cool. I do have one suggestion, though. The dark backgrounds make at least my screen look really dark, so I guess I prefer the lighter backgrounds just because they seem to pop more off of the screen.

Sounds like you need a new computer.

Well, technically I needed a new one just after I got this one. Piece of junk, but I am just waiting until I am out of school with a real job and can afford one again. I am hoping that this one will get me until after Dec. 2011. It does what I need it to for school and the rest...I can deal with until then,

Just an idea, but what about doing one with a picture of the Ralph and the statue outside the main entrance.

That just sounds like a photograph, if you get my drift.

Go to google images, search for Ralph Engelstad Arena, select the "large" option the left sidebar. I found a few, including one with the statue out front.

Those are a few. If those aren't what you are looking for, I might be able to make a little time to go take a few.

This isn't exactly a wallpaper, but if anyone is interested in my tag, feel free to ask for it (or just copy/paste it from here!)

Awesome! Mine is proudly displayed. Thanks!

Thanks. The Sammy Sioux logo is a favorite of mine, like I said. I actually created that logo in high-resolution from scratch. It took me FOREVER, but it turned out awesome in my opinion...hence the reason I had to find a way to use it. The process of making it wasn't difficult, other than the trickiness of getting it accurate, which came out as good as you can get it pretty much. I did modify the logo for the wallpaper and such, so that's not how it would typically look.

My first Sioux shirt as a kid had Sammy on it...love it!
