Thank you for your feedback on this months' desktop calender.

Yes, these are player made wallpapers. I would love to see this wallpaper duplicated by you in '2 minutes'.

The reason it took me so long to get it done (once I actually started) is that I had several ideas of what the finished wallpaper should look like, but once actually making them I was not happy with any of them. Only the red banner at the bottom survived from my initial thoughts to the end product.

Please enlighten us by sharing your 2 minute wallpaper and perhaps you can replace me as the wallpaper maker. I, too, could whip out a calender in 2 minutes, but lets see what yours looks like, shall we?

As an example, here are the candidates that did NOT make the cut for the final project. Feel free to make each of these and time the duration it takes to create them. It took me 30 minutes to just SEARCH for holly bush pictures I liked well enough for a background, which ended up not being used anyways.

Here is the original GIMP file (.xcf format, don't know if Photoshop or Inkscape or Picasa will open it).

Using the layers in the above file should help you in contructing the calender wallpaper in 2 minutes.

I've always enjoyed your desktop's.. And I like this one, even though, its a bit dark. I still like it, and use it.

Its the only thing that really keeps this game in my mind.
Thank you for your hard work!
