                        Make them .jpg's you s**t!!! lol
Seriously though, don't be wasting your bandwith with unnecessarily huge files. Having huge files as wallpapers also slows down your computer and wastes a lump of your memory.

                        Double post, went to edit and hit quote. Is the delete feature still gone or is it just gone from the non-javascript posts?

                        They are quite cool actually, and considering the uber net connection my uni has, the filesize bothered me not a hitch :smile: But yes, JPGs....good things so I'm told!
3 should be burnt however, that is a shoddy wallpaper if ever I saw one. Oh and I'm too attached to my sexy lady wallpapers to put up one of a mod I don't play, but thats beside the point. Some nice work there. </ramble>

                        Sorry about the bandwidth issue, guys.
But when converting them to JPG's, you've got some quality loss.
But I got an idea !
edit Check the post now, I posted them in my deviantart gallery ... sweet JPG's now.

                        Even if you convert to a huge quality JPEG, you still get a hugely significant save in filesize with barely noticable quality loss.

                        Myeah ... maybe I'm just too spoiled with my high-quality broadband connection.
Sorry guys, I know what it's like, I've been on 56k for 3 years.
@ Brasso. Yeah, I know. I was young. Photoshop was still far, far away. I just dug up this pile of sh!te to have a new topic on this art board. :biggrin:

                        I've been turning my favourite scantily clad ladies into wallpapers lately and I find that saving the image as a JPEG on quality 12 produces an image nigh on identical to a BMP but is still far smaller in filesize. But then I wear contact lenses, so perhaps with my poor eyesight I just don't notice the quality loss :biggrin:

                        Sometimes it's a resolution issue.
You can resize your BMP to a 800*600 JPG, and it could look fine on smaller screens, but when using the same JPG on higher resolution, it looks blurry.
