Default September Alternative Wallpapers ***EDITED*** 4 more walls

Get 'em while they're hot!

Be sure to look closely....

**EDIT**
Since I'm such a nice guy, I've uploaded all the walls again - this time with the calendar on the right side of the screen.

May i saw i like your work the first few i used my self, but i have gone back to the Top Gear BBC ones because the calendar placement. I think most people have icons to the left and when it’s covered its not helpful. Again nicely done

I'm thinking about doing this every month now, kinda like a Where's Stiggy? game on your wallpaper.

What does everything think?

Thanks for the feedback. I realise I'm not going to be able to please everyone, every time unless I create 10 different wallpapers every month (which I unfortunately don't have time to do).

I moved the calendar to the left in response to the people who are using/will be using soon, Windows Vista, which has a toolbar on the right side of the screen.

My suggestion would be to just move you icons away from the calendar, or just delete a heap of unnecessary icons. Personally, I try to keep the number of icons cluttering up my screen to the bare minimum. They are hardly necessary anyway, since every program can be opened through the start menu anyway.

However, if there is enough demand for it, I guess I could whip up an extra couple of walls each month with the calendar on the right side.

Thoughts?

Thank you so much for your response. I understand your position with early adopters of a new OS as well as the need to remain unique. Perhaps that’s why it is important that there remain alternatives. Another point remains your injection of the Stig and may I say the subtle reflection work is truly a mark of a master.

I didn't notice the Stig at all - it's only when you mentioned it here that after a serious bit of hunting I spotted it (and this has been my background since you posted it - doh!)

It's a great background, and personally I don't mind where you put the calendar as I don't use Vista and I don't have many icons on my desktop. Keep up the good work - your calendars are brilliant images/smilies/smile.gif

P.S. - don't forget to update ur sig images/smilies/wink.gif

LOL, I just noticed that the official TG wallpaper for this month is the Noble M15, which was the alternate wallpaper last month!
