Wallpaper!!!

Hello, Mr "High Quality or GTFO" here.

The right half of the logo, I created for the site (see above), is actually from a wallpaper I cropped from a scan I found.

Here's a preview:



Here's the links to the wallpapers:

Best image to use as Gunslinger Girl wallpaper. Evar.

Candles in the Wind

I have to agree with Nachtsider here, among all the common wallpapers, that's d best

Common? You mean someone's posted it before?

i already had a copy of that since d second day i got into GSG and that was a long time ago, that's one of the licensed wallpapers of funimation i think. yeah very common, if you type GSG wallpaper in yahoo you're bound to see it in front

Damn.

Hey don't get me wrong it's a good wallpaper. it's just that there is a high chance a GSG fan will come by this site and say "hey that's my desktop pic"

I know, I know... it's just that I thought I'd contributed something unique.

O, if you're talking about unique then... back to the drawing board you go.

I've been responsible for bringing much uniqueness to the fandom, and I've always been pretty obsessed with maintaining my record. And I'm still working at that drawing board even as we speak. Stay tuned.

o, "much uniqueness" were your works? never really paid attention to author names

I was the second person on the entire Web to write Gunslinger Girl fanfiction. I introduced the first ever Gunslinger Girl OCs. I was the first one to create male cyborgs and sorella teams - even brought Emilio back from the dead as a cyborg to be with Rico again. First to throw romance into Gunslinger Girl fanfiction, first to write stories from the point-of-view of people other than the SWA's personnel, first to write stories with Elsa in them, first to have Henrietta avenge her family and first to write stories in which Angie kicks serious ass instead of dying or lying helpless in a hospital bed.

That's pretty darn unique, if you ask me.

hwow, and when i first watched gunslinger girl i was like "im gonna write the first gunslinger guy, d first sorella team, bring pino back from the dead, make a tagic romance out of gunslinger girl, and right a love story about elsa" u practically shot me down on almost everything...

I'd like to point out that a lot of OC cyborgs are trained to swim, Nile. But if you're talking about a cyborg who's specially trained for amphibious operations, then she'd definitely be the first of her kind. Your OCs are interesting - I can't wait to see more of them.

Apart from an AU story by Sasahara in which Elsa goes on the run after killing Lauro and failing to kill herself, I've never before read an artfully-done 'runaway cyborg' story. But I know you can put an end to all that.

I tend to avoid pairing up canon characters with OCs, but I don't mind other authors doing so. Just be careful of Danjo if you take that path, however.

Looking back, it seems like I neglected to mention another trend I set. The first one to write about an overseas agency that also operated cyborgs was me.

She wasn't just trained to swim. she was made for amphibious operation. she can't hold her breath for 3 hours, and have a spear gun attached to her rifle for nothing.

my rogue Henreitta & Joze goes under the lines of: Joze realizes that the SWA has gone too far and so strives to bring it down.

as for Danjo *flash back on first ever comment from Danjo* i see what you mean...

i don't have a overseas agency but i do have a agency working overseas but they have nothing to do with cyborgs, but they are my Lance's employers

alry no i just spoiled my old fic really bad... here's d link, any way you are featuring my OC in combat missions
Scars & Bullets
this was my first fic... so please don't criticize me on my first few chapters, i know they're bad

Oddity did that one, too...
...and it's also been done the other way. A canon cyborg used as handler for an OC cyborg. Sintendo did that one.

it had to be done because of my fanfic's ending, i also remember Sheo doing the same thing. ando Sheo being the one behind the "1st replacement handler for a cannon cyborg"

O wait... "O dear Frederick will be **" you have read my fic, sorry, i didn't know you back then, didn't recognize your review. did u finish it or did u just skip till d end...

It's called Nachtspeak, Nile, and it happens when I'm being obtuse.

'Scars and Bullets' I skimmed through more than anything else, actually. It's a nice story, but the substance of the tale is buried under a lot of rough edges.

left too much stuff to be explained by my next fics, the problem is i lost alot of determination to write due to lazyness alot of discouraging comments. im fine now, probably start writing over the summer break again.

I would use that, but the resolution kind of sucks.

Hard.

When I right-click that thing and select the 'Set as Wallpaper' option, the resulting product seems just fine.

Resolution of your screen?

I don't know any of that technical crap...

=|

K, um, go to desktop, right click -> properties, display (I think, its the last panel of the right).

Should be like "*some number* x *some number*"

If you use a Mac;

IDK

Alright, now... 1200 by 800. I'm running on a laptop.

lol, same resolution as my laptop at home.

I'll try and clean that picture up when I'm on it and have all the software to do it, because right now to me it doesn't look like it would go good full-screen in it's present state.

And if I find a higher resolution, I'll post that.

Thanks a bunch, Bryn. I'm beginning to think that the custom title 'Wallpaper Wallah' might suit you just fine...

Sounds great, I'm good at finding/making/editing/ wallpapers for anyones tastes.

Contact Sin, Emperor or Elfen, and they'll be able to saddle you with the nick.

was browsing through some stuff I downloaded awhile ago (but never fully explored), and I came across this:

...after cropping it and scaling it down (the resolution was 2724x2736), I figured it would make a nice background for any Triela/Pino fan.

But what hope can there be for Triela/Pino?

...I meant Triela and/or Pino, not some 'pairing'.

Ah... I see now.

P-90,you made the first one?

That's nice!!

:dance:

Very.

Got a version without the irl girl?

P-90 wrote:Henrietta+live

That girl is very Henrietta looking.

Indeed. Is she anyone we recognize?

looks like a CG rendering, to me. If that's a photo of a real girl, it's been washed out in pastel colors... yeah, CGI is more likely.

Oh hey Bryn, man haven't seen you around in forever! Anyway yes I do in fact have two versions:




Also have a cool wallpaper I feel like sharing. Though I do think I got it from here. Rico just looks so Bad Ass Mother Fucker in this one:

Yeah my computer died and it took forever to get a new one.

These wallpapers are good.

No, it's good, I'm just a season 1 art style fanboy.

Yes!!! Same here! Can't argue on that!

The only reason that kept me from watching GSG Il Teatrino (aside the studies I need to take in school) is the artwork. :p

Me too. Season 1 was what got me into GSG.

Same here, I loved the artwork, that was probably one of the major factors in me watching.

I think that's goes for all of us.

Yeah... *sigh*, I still can't get over how much the first seasons art was better then the 2nd, lowest bidder wins is retarded.
