My Visual Studio 2005 Wallpaper

UPDATE: I've added versions that do not include the icons for each resolution based on feedback. Enjoy.

I'm the type of guy that isn't artistically challenged but, I'm not exactly Michaelangelo, either. So, I spent about 45 minutes tonight making a Visual Studio 2005 Desktop wallpaper since I was getting tired of my old one. I figured I would make different resolution versions of it for anyone else that might want to sport Visual Studio 2005 on their desktop at work. So, follow the links and grab it if you want; below is a small sample of it - I went for the brushed metal look. I'm also thinking of doing a "Vista" Version (glossy Mac OS X look) later.

1600 x 1200     1600x1200 no icons

1280 x 960       1280x960 no icons

1024 x 768       1024x768 no icons

 

Underneath the text are little images that represent VB, C#, VC++, VJ#, ASP.NET, VSTO, VSTS for Architects, VSTS for Developers, and VSTS for Testers - the product "suite" - if you will.

One feedback: I dont like the small icons in there. They conflict with my existing icons on the desktop - otherwise very nice.

Hi Sonu - if you'd like I could remove the icons for you if you want to use it...it's just a layer of the image. If you want to let me know what resolution you need.

I agree with Sonu Kapoor. The small icons infact conflict with the icons on the desktop. It would be nice if you can make an alternative wallpaper

Well then - I've put up each resolution without the icons now. Thanks for the feedback!
