WinMaster Posted March 30, 2005 Share Posted March 30, 2005 Hey all, Was wondering if anyone was interested in making a Cisco Systems wallpaper. I work with their products all the time, and thought it would be nice for clients to see the wallpaper if I had wondered away from my machine. I can't find any on the web, and my Photoshop skills are about as basic as they come. I think something with their slogan "This is the power of the network" and their logo, maybe some simple green lines and stuff would look cool. Any takers? --WinMaster Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/302906-req-cisco-wallpaper/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

d3monn Posted March 31, 2005 Share Posted March 31, 2005 Another version, I personally like this one better. If you like, I can send/post the full sized version.

WinMaster Posted March 31, 2005 Author Share Posted March 31, 2005 Wow, you all have made some nice wallpapers. Thank you for your efforts. d3monn, I think your really on to something with you second wall, its simple and minimalisic. I also wonder how that would look with the Background in the green that Cisco uses, with "This is the power of the network" under the logo in red? What do you think? --WinMaster P.S. Bloodwork -- Sorry for using the wrong forum, I was in a hurry and I don't usually have the time to locate the absolutly best forum to post in.

d3monn Posted March 31, 2005 Share Posted March 31, 2005 (edited) Here's an update on the wallpaper, I was a bit bored and added a bit of an effect to the background and I'm working a bit more on making that a bit more easier on the eyes. Here's a shot of the both of them. and this is a screenshot of the plain one. I think the green at the bottom could have a little more blue/teal into it...

Here's a shot of the both of them. the textured one is very nice. but the red fond is not easy on the eyes as it is.

d3monn Posted March 31, 2005 Share Posted March 31, 2005 the textured one is very nice. but the red fond is not easy on the eyes as it is. 585700830[/snapback] The actual preview on the topic page is quite distorted, if you didn't do so, it's a lot better to look at. If you did, well, it could be just red is hard on the eyes. Either way, here's a version of the textured one with white text. Like you mentioned, it is a bit easier on the eyes without the red text. I can make it a small wallpaper "pack" with textured/untextured/green/blue/white text/red text to distribute, so it adds a bit of variety. The only problem is filesize.

+E.Worm Jimmy Subscriber¹ Posted March 31, 2005 Subscriber¹ Share Posted March 31, 2005 yeah, personally i dont care about this cisco wallpaper.. :p but the red line and white text look way better then the red text. on this green background white is a lot easier to read.

d3monn Posted March 31, 2005 Share Posted March 31, 2005 I agree, white is better. Just waiting on WinMaster before I post the final image here. I don't want to take up too much space on the server with 3 1600x1200 sized images. I'd post this on DeviantArt, but it's against their rules to use a company in the work, and since I don't feel like going through hours of e-mail work from Cisco asking permission and giving proof to DeviantArt and all that mumbo-jumbo. Anywho, @WinMaster: PM me and I can post/link/send you a larger sized version of either the plain background, or the textured, or both.

WinMaster Posted April 1, 2005 Author Share Posted April 1, 2005 d3monn, I think all your work looks great, the white, the red...its all very nice. I wish I had a place I could host these for you. Great work, WinMaster Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/302906-req-cisco-wallpaper/#findComment-585706007 Share on other sites More sharing options...
d3monn Posted April 1, 2005 Share Posted April 1, 2005 Thanks WinMaster, It's all good, are there any other request/suggestions for the wallpaper? RE: the hosting, I might be able to get some hosting done. It's not hard to find a basic free hosting service. I might just open a free account at Brinkster to host the files.
