FEATURED Pick the new Overclockix desktop background!

mbentley · Mar 27, 2012

It was suggested that I ask rezasam1, who has made some incredible wallpapers for our use, to make an Overclockix wallpaper. So I went ahead and asked if he would create a few and sure enough, a few hours later, we have five wallpapers to choose from! Until we get a theme put together that can possible rotate the backgrounds, I would like to have a poll to choose which wallpaper you would to see as the default.

Wallpaper 1

Wallpaper 2

Wallpaper 3

Wallpaper 4

Wallpaper 5

Wallpaper 6

I'm not a fan of the greenish tint of #1 and #5. I like the transparency of the logo, so that knocks out #4 for me. So, I'm left with #2 and #3. #2 is more blue, but #3 has PCB traces that standout more. So, I chose #3 because I like how the PCB traces stand out, and the green tint isn't as obvious as #1 and #5. I'd like #3 even more if it was more of a blue tint, or I'd like #4 if the logo had some transparency.

My wife & I chose #5 because it was a bit less "busy" than the others. I have 100s of beautiful backgrounds, but find myself tiring of the more intricate ones, switching back to more basic scenery.

I love #4.
3 and 5 are good too, but 4 is my favorite.

Is there a way you could upload #2 in 1920X1080 so I could use it for my desktop?! haha

Combine number 1's oc font and its surrounding (the dot dot/rough effect

) with everything else of number 5.

Wallpaper 6 is a late addition, but I added it anyways.

Also, I voted 4, because the logo is solid with no transparency and there is good contrast with the background - I think it looks sharpest.

mmm, #6 is nice as well(they are all top drower, btw).

I'll bump up the brightness a little for my desktop background.

If I had to choose I would pick #1.

Special thanks to Reza OCF's best Photoshop/aftereffects artist!

Well, it looks like wallpaper 4 is it!

I won't be rolling out the new release anytime this week but I will get the new wallpaper integrated tonight.
