Default Please Post your 993 Desktop Wallpapers in this thread!!..........

In the 96recent 993 Wallpaper Poll - the "Yes" votes had quite a margin.....

OK - so I finished a preliminary 993 Gallery Site at

http://gallery.rennlist.com/wallpaper/993

BUT!!!!! A couple of notes!!!! I've only added a few photos thus far, as I'm finding I need to manually resize most up to 1024x768 from threads I've grabbed pics from and from folks SIGS (Max911 - your sites are OUTSTANDING!!!!). Therefore - I'm not thrilled with some and the pixilation on several, as the minimum size is 1024x768. I've got a few in at several resolutions....

Also - if you would like to contribute a Wallpaper....

Post it in this thread! And I'll grab it from here; or -

Post a "link" (as an IMG (image)) and I'll follow that link to the picture; or -

Email it to me! at admin@rennlist.com

I really would like some at native 1024x768 and higher (up to 1600x1200). If this works out - I'll also post a username password anyone can use to post their photos directly, so I won't have to run interference....

In the meantime - my thanks to all..!! And the wallpapers on the site are from Members and users alike - so if you want me to update yours (if you have one) - simply let me know.... And if I used on of your photos in the initial site - thanks from all of us!

Again - my thanks for your support, patience and encouragement...!

Had to reduce these to 1024x768 and crank up the compression in order to meet the file size limit. Most of us will be better off posting links I thinks...

Derrick, I love the way you can park your car (love that color!) on the sea-RV (avatar). One would think the GSA would want to provide a stealth canopy which would help with the salty environment, etc...
