    USMG Wallpaper?

    I was wondering if any of our designers here could come up with a sweet wallpaper background?
    I have kicked around the idea, but can't come up with anything good.

    Yeah, no one ever did.
    I do think some have messed with the idea, but nobody ever shared!

    Actually, I was going to get with DB and see if he could come up with a thought I had. I was thinking like a riveted sheet metal background with the USMG Red/Black logo in the center. HEY DB...what do ya think?

    Actually either would look good. The round one you created, or the one you put on the shirts.

    If I had the logos, I could probably come up with something. You sent me the round one, but I lost it.

    Here is my first feeble attempt. I am not 100% happy with, but you get the idea. Any thoughts? I think I need to change the background image. It is not high res enough and expands too much.

    That's pretty good Ironhide. That first one was my first attempt at making a wallpaper.

    This is my first real attempt also. I need to work on the aspect ratios. On my mac, it stretches and looks weird, but on my PC without widescreen, it looks good.

    Much to learn I do.......

    Does it have to be a specific size?

    I'll take a stab.

    Heck....I don't know....lol???

    My screen res is 1440x900 and it stretches out weird. The image is setup to the wrong ratio, but my photoshop skills are lacking at best!

    Hells Yeah Smoke!
    BTW, do you have the .psd for the logo that I get?

    I like your background.
    I need a darker background so this is looking good to me!

    Thanks!
