Switchblade · « **Reply #50 on:** 18 May 2005, 09:33 »

I've had a neat idea, but am hitting a few problems pulling it off.

I want to do a wallpaper featuring the following:

To the right of the screen: Steve with his pants down.

to the left of the screen:

Marten in his panel four "OMG I fucked up" stance from strip 362 (hands over his mouth)

Faye doing her "lalala I'm not listening" bit from comic #168 (fingers in ears), flipped so she's facing to the left (and away from steve)

And... well, I wanted to do the "three monkeys" bit and use a snip of somebody (preferably Dora) covering their eyes or averting their gaze, or something, but I can't find one. Any suggestions?

bainidhe_dub · « **Reply #51 on:** 18 May 2005, 15:32 »

perhaps #360, panel 2, dora's initial rejection of random_guy_01? she's not covering her eyes or anything, but she is pointedly looking away..

Switchblade · « **Reply #52 on:** 19 May 2005, 02:05 »

yeah, but it's kind of a "not interested" looking away rather than an "I do NOT want to see that" expression...

Sionide · « **Reply #53 on:** 12 Jun 2005, 08:13 »

Any luck with your wallpaper Switchblade?

Duchess Tapioca · « **Reply #54 on:** 12 Jun 2005, 18:35 »

I think you should replace your "see no evil" with a grinning staring Ellen. And pay Jeph to make you an updated pantsless Steve to color.

Crappy...Crappy....Crappyness.

Nice, actually. I love it

mackdaddy · « **Reply #57 on:** 10 Jul 2005, 19:01 »

I plan to make a nice one, that looks SUXZ0RZ.

Sionide · « **Reply #58 on:** 12 Jul 2005, 02:04 »

Well when you do, feel free to upload them to the actual QC wallpaper gallery instead of crappy image shack!

Also, I had another idea for the one with sticking photos on the blackboard; you could have that thing where the photo on the blackboard is the wallpaper again, and there's a photo on the photo on the photo and it gets smaller and smaller!

Duchess Tapioca · « **Reply #59 on:** 12 Jul 2005, 10:53 »

Do it Sionide. You never gave us the wallpaper you said you'd make a really long time ago.

darkhorizons · « **Reply #60 on:** 12 Jul 2005, 20:52 »

I know that Bottix is the font used for pintsize and the titles and things, but what if the font used in the text bubbles?

Duchess Tapioca · « **Reply #61 on:** 12 Jul 2005, 23:21 »

It's a special font for people who carry money shurbs around in flowerpots. All the identity theives who steal your credit card numbers, they're just buying a licence for that font. That's all.

:O You're right but that's because I'm just awful at making them. But alright, I have a bunch of spare time now. I'll see what I can do...

askmeques · « **Reply #63 on:** 24 Jul 2005, 15:11 »

i absolutely love how on the Protest Comic Sans wallpaper, Faye's shirt says IRONY and the font it is in is comic sans

shrimp · « **Reply #64 on:** 05 Aug 2005, 07:22 »

I made this pretty wee desktop, fits my screen perfectly, thought someone else might want it, but I can't get it on the gallery, so I've image shacked it. Its here:

Don't be mean to me, I only had MS Pint and am completely uncreative and computer talentless!

DeadEnd · « **Reply #65 on:** 08 Aug 2005, 04:14 »

dora's weird

stupid orcs

Sionide · « **Reply #66 on:** 16 Aug 2005, 02:13 »

Added it to the gallery..

Bahaha, I'm so lazy - I still haven't made a wallpaper yet. Maybe today

shrimp · « **Reply #67 on:** 16 Aug 2005, 09:44 »

Yey! Thanks Sionide.

soap · « **Reply #68 on:** 16 Aug 2005, 10:29 »

i know its not brilliant but it is the background i use on my PC

.Kate. · « **Reply #69 on:** 22 Aug 2005, 09:42 »

Those are cool. I wish I could do that sort of stuff.

Lunchbox · « **Reply #70 on:** 24 Aug 2005, 00:43 »

I made this one up quickly from a nice sketch of Faye. It looks pretty good on the ol' desktop.

EDIT: Uploaded to Sionide's gallery. Thanks for providing such an ass-spankingly cool service, Sionnide.

Axle · « **Reply #71 on:** 29 Aug 2005, 21:35 »

Here's my first try at a desktop. Feel free to take the concept and make it better.

Juanathon · « **Reply #72 on:** 05 Sep 2005, 00:30 »

Whats wrong, is it just me or is the site for the wallpapers down, can someone plz do something.

Thx

BTW. love the wallpapers

(yay my first post)

Duchess Tapioca · « **Reply #73 on:** 05 Sep 2005, 01:51 »

It will come back someday. Do not worry. While you are waiting, you should make sure to ask Sionide to make you one. Which ever one you want, the sky is the limit. Ask many times, and do not stop. Guilt works.

Also:

CLASSY.

Josh · « **Reply #74 on:** 09 Sep 2005, 17:26 »

Duchess Tapioca that wallpaper is great! It fits my screen and it has space for icons! (Even though I like to keep the desktop neat, 5 or 6 icons max)

It looks great

Thanks!

Sonet · « **Reply #75 on:** 09 Sep 2005, 17:51 »

Apparently, I'm a'sposed'ta post this here. Another homemade QC desktop, with a bit of a twist...

I hate how Faye's left hand looks!!! Grrrr... >_<

Ah well. Enjoy!

Duchess Tapioca · « **Reply #76 on:** 09 Sep 2005, 18:34 »

Ooh... That is really nice.

Any wallpaper can be made proper size and practical by someone if you ask nicely, when they get around to it. Most people make them to the size they have themselves.

Sionide · « **Reply #77 on:** 13 Sep 2005, 04:58 »

Agh! Apologies for the down-time. My webhost decided to migrate my site to a server, the down-side of which was some stuff including the gallery got broken. Anyway, the gallery is all fixed now so you can upload your wallpapers..

QC Wallpaper Gallery

I now have control over my subdomains, so I could make http://qcwallpaper.sionide.net/ to redirect to the gallery - would that be cool?

Sorry for all the down-time again!

Edit:

Just added all the wallpapers who were unable to upload before due to the down-time. It just so happened that the down-time started 1 day after I went on holiday to Spain, sorry everyone. Normal service in this area has been resumed...

Sonet · « **Reply #78 on:** 21 Oct 2005, 03:24 »

I felt bad that this topic hasn't received any attention in over a month, so I whipped this up in about half an hour.

Genius!! I love it!

By the way, the whole point of the Wallpaper Gallery is that you don't have to post the images to your own webspace and they're all together in the same place.

Login with username: qcuser and password: jephrocks

Then upload your wallpapers directly to the gallery!

Sonet · « **Reply #81 on:** 08 Nov 2005, 13:02 »

Another Pintsize background, using the 3D model I made last night... I uploaded it to the wallpaper gallery as well as to my own webspace.

pretty much the most awesome picture of pintsize i've seen.. :O

RollOfDimes · « **Reply #83 on:** 22 Nov 2005, 14:06 »

Those are quite rad

Request... please.. I am teh carp at wallpapering, so will someone kindly make something involing the roll of quarters strip? Number 19, I believe. So awesome.

Thanks!

StupidityKills · « **Reply #84 on:** 09 Dec 2005, 08:23 »

I made a new wallpaper, and yes its on the shared archive.

It comes in (800x600), (1024x768) and (1280x800).
Yes, its just Raven, Marten, Faye and Dora. I would have included Steve and Ellen, but these are the only guys we've seen much of lately (ie. since the last art-evolution.) Also last time we saw Steve he wasn't lookin' too good, and there didn't seem much point including Ellen without him. So...yeah. Enjoy.

(I pretty much hate myself right now for having spent the last 45 mins making this when I should have been doing my uni assignments, so somebody better appreciate it!)

Paper Beats Rock · « **Reply #85 on:** 09 Dec 2005, 08:43 »

That's AWESOME, there's the little hidden story going on in the background with Dora winking at Marten behind a suspicious Faye's back, it's almost like a prophesy of what's going to happen in the strip.

Hope you appreciate my appreciate, I'm wasting valuble time posting this that I could be spending doing uni' assignments.

StupidityKills · « **Reply #86 on:** 10 Dec 2005, 02:19 »

Yay! I do

Good luck with your assignments, I'll go work if you will?

I think it speaks volumes that I made the exact same background when that was posted on jephdraw. hehe

I made a pack of different sizes of this one I just finished. It's simple, but I think it looks awsome. It's of that cool pannle 4 strip with the cool lighting effects and Dora and Martin.
Download the Pack HERE!

the pack includes sizes:
- 800X600
-1024X768
-!280X1024

Sionide · « **Reply #93 on:** 07 Mar 2006, 04:07 »

thanks Mrono for your effort. I've added them to the main QC gallery.

Joshua · « **Reply #94 on:** 16 Mar 2006, 22:02 »

URL New Wallpaper anyone? Simple yet so cool.

lytlebill · « **Reply #95 on:** 17 Apr 2006, 01:41 »

I've only recently been introduced to the whole QC thing, and after reading 580 strips in one night, I was hooked.

Strip 600 is about the most wonderful thing I've ever read on the internet, and like many other, it seems I can't stop looking at that first panel.

Here's what's on my desktop now:

http://www.lytlebill.com/files/sixthumb.jpg" alt="sixohoh" width="300" height="240" border="0">

It's 1280x1024, and a little big, but I figure you can't cheap out on the good stuff. Up now in Sionide's gallery, so enjoy!

EDIT: Looks like I totally missed that Jeph put up this same panel on his art site, sans words.

That's what I get for only reading through the larger threads. That and it's 2am here. Anyway, night all.

I love the Booty dance and the cake mix ones. Looooovelly

Veret · « **Reply #98 on:** 11 Jul 2006, 17:50 »

Reading through this thread I saw the term "iBooty Dance" and, as usual, my mind went off on a...bit of a tangent. Is it possible to take a theme too far? Yes, and I think I did:

This was done entirely in MS paint...my skills are teh crap too, but I have nearly unlimited free time.

I got really bored tonight!

Crop to your heart's content, my screen size is kind of funky.
