How big is the file so far with all these wallpapers in them? Zipped/Rared after all, because I have 3 Comcast accounts with 20mbs of space each, and as far as I know there is no bandwidth limit.

Well...hmm. If you can split it into 19mb chunks I'll upload to my webspace. Don't think we'll be hitting 60mbs anytime soon, so we should be okay. But I guess we should wait until this thread starts dieing down, than we can create a new post with them all backed up.

My contact info is inside my profile, pop me off an email when you feel that you won't be getting any more submissions into this thread.

I could probably register a domain and host it as well...hopefully.
I was considering doing this, but you're probably a lot more likely to actually do it. Implement a rating system ;)

Well drat, you guys are doing awesome at this, sorry I didn't update it sooner.

Make a new post, and put a link in the first post to the next one that includes even more wallpapers. Sure it'll be spread out but as long as you just toss the URL's in them to each update, it's all good.

A cool idea: Pov can get in touch with the second poster of this thread so that he/she can "host" some of his text, preferably something that pov will not change.
Or he can remove one - from a <--, i'm sure that will give him some more space.

I'll see what I can do. Strider is a perfect choice for a wallpaper. Bionic Commando to a lesser extent...

I need a pretty vertical shooter to make wallpapers out of. Any suggestions? Space Invaders may look good... Trog might rock pretty hard, too.

Chrono Trigger - Zeal




PSD available upon request.
The cloud background is rather "busy" and it doesn't offer an opportunity to put the characters in. I prefer End of Time, but Zeal is just drat cool and needed its due :)

Luckily enough, even though I couldn't get the left side of the left island or the right side of the right one, the developers apparently got lazy and used the same island drawing for both. Huzzah!

Enjoy!

Needs more Donkey Kong Country up in this house.

This is what I've got so far, going to take a while to cut out all the base background and layer the more detailed ones back in, but the result should be sweet.

With MAME and some skill you can possibly make ones out of Cave shooters. They're amazingly pretty.

DoDonPachi, ESP Ra.De, Guwange, Dangun Feveron, etc.

I think I might try my hand at this tomrorow, with Shinobi III for Genesis. I have the game upstairs, I'll just hunt down a ROM and try this out. I loved that game and it's ultra pretty.

This thread wins. There is no one background that is better than another. Even the games I hate's background are sex times two.

Thank you all for making these.

To those of you below my post. Thank you too, I have faith and confidence that whatever you guys make is going to rule.

I'll help torrent when the time comes, although, I reccommend when someone does make a "final" rar, they name it something like "videogame wallpapers 01.rar" because there will be an 02 and 03 and 04 and 05 and so on. There's 8,000+ NES games :ninja:

Any of the Twinbee games would rock. They're for SNES, and are japanese.

However, i know absoloutley no par codes for them.

That's pretty much it.
Some things that make it easier:

*Disable sprites and various background layers (the number keys 1,2,3,4 & 5 in ZSNES).

*Google for some gameshark/gamegenie whatever cheats that will make it easier to collect the screens you need.
Invincibility, Unlimited Time, Super Jump etc. Or you could just use your own mad skillz.

*Patience.
