This is my little contribution to ReactOS : an abstract wallpaper using some colour tones from official ROS logo
(oh my God!, yet another wallpaper-guy)
I've uploaded this lossy quality jpeg because i'm in dial-up connection. But of course I'll upload better quality versions if there're no improvements to do.
Maybe mf could advise something to make it even better.. Like that ReactOS text on the background, I think the font doesn't really fit... But that's purely IMO.
Well, it's not "our" font (AvantGarde Black BT) of course. But that doesn't necessarily have to be a bad thing. I think it's fresh. The only advice I would have is to use a higher quality logo, it looks a bit blurry to me.
Thank you for your comments and suggestiongs, mates.
I could make a version with the Reactos font but... i haven't installed AvantGarde Black BT and I didn't found it googling. Does anyone have this one? If so, could you upload it? Thanx in advance.
This is better but I suggest to reduce the intervals between the letters and make them larger. In general I suggest to take the official reactos logo and place it in the wallpaper. I also suggest slighly change the pallette to increase green tones at expence of blue.
The font does not have to be the same as the ReactOS font. It's not our objective to enforce total uniformity with all things ROS. If it looks good the way it was, there's no reason to dismiss it just because it uses a different font or style.
I agree - PNG would be the better format to have for this, and in this case the PNG would probably be no more than 50% larger.
But don't bother zipping it - in general, zipping has very little effect on compressed images.
