Default The Dogs of War - Wallpaper based on my Sig

Hey Guys,

I get bored at work sometimes (okay, often) and learned a long time ago that the best way to sharpen your skills with programs like Photoshop is to work on stuff you enjoy.

So every now and then I crank out a new sig for myself. I just cooked up a new one and thought maybe I'd share.

So here's the sig, obviously:


And here's the 800 x 600 wallpaper:


I would have loved to go bigger, but even at 800 x 600 you can see that the quality starts dropping pretty quick due to the source images. If I could get high res versions of images I liked for it, it could have been sharper.

This was, of course, inspired by the quote from Shakespeare's Julius Ceaser and our nice little collection of pass rushers.

Enjoy.
We need wins, and that's all we need. I don't give a damn about anyone on this roster over wins. I'd trade Ware, Lee and Dez if it meant more wins.

Of course. That one was soooo obvious.

Maybe you're more familiar with Mr Burns', "Release the hounds!"?

Do you have any problem with me including this in a video I'm making? If not, that's cool, no harm asking. It's amazing! Just when I start thinking I'm finally coming around with Photoshop, I see something like this.

Haha! I always liked that one that you used to have with Dan Reeves escaping out the window. That was extremely creative.
