Here's a thread dedicated to posting your favorite wallpapers in their full glory. Yeah, whatever, we've had a desktop thread. This one's for the wallpapers.

Anyway, some of my favs:

too bad it was cancelled..
is there a "spoiler" type tag for this forum? Perhaps we could use something like that to help keep the scroll down?

don't believe so, and scroll is a minor issue as far as I'm concerned...
If you're really worried about it though you could probably use that thumbnail feature Imageshack has, though it's never really bothered me

And yeah, Wish was a pretty cool game before it died Sad

Good stuff so far... In case anyone's curious, my current is the blood rose. I like the synaptical link (?) wallpaper Esel posted... the USSR wp is nice, but you can find far better ones out there:

http://www.freedesktopwallpapers.ru/misc/images/herb_of_%20ussr.jpg
http://www.ruv.net/fileadmin/2003_gallery4/motherland.jpg

a few others but I'm too lazy to look. If you want, a good place is Yandex.ru (russian Google).

No, but there are hight and width attribs in the image tags, ie: [img height=120 width=200]http://lala.jpg[/img]

or make it retain its aspect ratio:

[img width=150]http://bla.jpg[/img]

Its one of the many hacks we made

sure, if you define "enjoyable" as claustrophobic^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H 56k-friendly thumbnails (they don't do the job of getting a wallpaper across, just add the extra step of having to manipulate the images before viewing. That, in my opinion, isn't enjoyable.

I understand that you want to keep this forum as friendly to people with inferior connections as possible in order to maximise your clickbase and userbase... there is nothing wrong with that. But some threads just weren't meant for 9600 baud modems in the hands of 13-year olds with ADS. I see why you're doing this, but I don't agree with doing it. IMHO, the 56k'ers should be welcomed to every part of the forum they technically can, but that should not interfere with the other 96% of NFOrcers.

As for frame freaks, some threads aren't about text. I do believe that a thread titled "Favorite Wallpapers (56k don't bother)" would suggest such a thread. I don't consider the complaint valid or relative, and I'm fairly certain you won't, should you choose to consider the circumstances. Please reconsider the reflex frame servtitude you promote, at least for this thread. Most people will not have issues with frames, and those browsing at 800x600... they deserve it.

It takes like 12 seconds to upload to image shack. if the 56kers think the image looks somewhat cool they will click on it. No need to be difficult about it.

nice picture.. the story behind it is even better:

I'm a very dedicated footie fan of my home-team.. some call us hooligans we like to look at ourselves as Ultras tho.. i dont mind fighting etc Smile

anyhoo - FCM is our rivals and we've anihilated them this season.. so that pic is after the latest away win game - where i got kicked out by the stewards in first half after some fighting hehe.. i tried to jump the fence when outside of the stadium in halftime.. but unsuccessfull. .was spotted by more stewards Very Happy
anyhoo... then some old alcie came along wearing that hat and i asked him if i could buy it.. "sure" so bought it for 20dkk ~2£ - perfect...

then i ran around the stadium to the lounge entrance.. took on the hat and walked straight in.. got me 2 free beers - dunno how its possible.. but Very Happy - anyway.. went up the stairs and got in for free etc..

game ended 2-1 in our favour... and of cuz that ugly ass hat needed a few roman candles up its arse... so there you go - perfect sunday afternoon.. Smile (except for being fined by the police for something i didnt do Rolling Eyes)
