Wallpaper Wednesday: Guest helmet

I was looking for a quiet week to post this one, but I guess there isn't going to be any more quiet weeks for a couple of months.

This wallpaper was designed by the very talented MG from MGHELMETS.COM

I ran into his work about a month ago when I was surfing around logo and graphic design discussion forums. Although he is an Alabama fan, he graciously agreed to make this wallpaper for me to post here. The detail and realism on this is incredible. It looks great on my monitor.

Thanks MG !

Yes that is freaking awesome. Nice work.

Love it! It doesn't fit on my monitor, none of them do, except for the one that says MICHIGAN (which I love), not sure why, I am not a total computer geek, so I must be doing something wrong!

You have your resolution set too low

Hey...nothing to do with this post, but I just read an article here... http://www.thebuckeyeblog.com/ohio-state-defends-michigan/#comments that has put into words what many of us have probably thought before. Totally neutral. Really! Anyway, I like it.

Go Bucks

Florida Buck - thanks but no thanks. I don't go on opposing teams blogs because that would just be weird, unnatural,creepy and...........oh, sorry, no offense meant.

If you have not checked back on some comments from previous posts you may want to check out the Mike Keller comment on the 8/30 excessive post. Interesting perspective from a past player.

Andy said...

Jinx. You must have been typing this the same time I was putting together today's post.

Catie said...

Thanks Andy, but it was not the problem! I am a MAC girl, so maybe that is the issue? My resolution is set at the highest that it can be set. Thanks for the suggestion though!

Andy said...

These wallpapers are (mostly) all 1280x800

I assume you are using a windows based PC. Most computers produced in the last 3 or 4 years should easily handle that resolution. You might want to check to see if you are using the correct video driver. If you are using the simple generic microsoft video driver - that would explain the low resolution capability.

If you can id the actual video card/chip set your machine is using (via windows device manager) you can find an updated driver on the web, install it, and get a better video performance.

phil, phil, PHIL!

Do you not realize how unique this blog is? No other Michigan site allows enemy combatants to come and mix it up with the faithful. On other Michigan sites the poor unfortunates or miscreants get bum rushed, humiliated and thrown out. Why, if you all weren't so charitable, you'd be just another typical Michigan blog--yawwwwn.

Your unique position in the college football blogosphere is to be admired. It is quite a civilized balancing act you all perform.

Whets... keep Pennsylvania out of this.

whetstonebuck said...

Now, bob,

You know the schizty lions will come in second place in the
Big 10. We must accord them some respect.

phil said...

Eloquent speech Whet. I guess I'll accept the enemy combatants but could you at least wear an ankle monitor so I know your whereabouts at all times?

Navigate back to the Trekkies conquer Ann Arbor game site.

whetstonebuck said...

Hahahaha.

Most of the time, the Buckeye fans here are fairly civilized...well at least as civilized as someone from Ohio can be.....

Andy, when I said that I am a MAC girl, I didn't mean the conference, I meant Apple! So I don't run a PC, rather 2 Macs! A desktop and a MacBook. Thanks for trying though!
