Implementing some other community ideas that have surfaced in various threads. Massive thanks to Nikkopt for the fantastic renders.

The keen eye will recognize cues from a GP2X icon or two.

Looks very nice. My one suggestion is to use the colors you were using in your other pictures/the ones traylorpark is using. I think these are a bit too bright.

For some reason, that reminds me of those IDE ribbon cables... biggrin.gif

And I agree - darken those colors a tad so they don't pop out so much.

Darken the colors and separate the two images on the forum a little so they don't look like one.

Just a brief digression into something best suited as a wallpaper:

Great!

My suggestions: add one color to the raimbow, remove the SD card, add some "concentric" Wi-fi rays like ")))" coming from the left side of the Pandora...

I’ll have to say, having an image of your pandora as your pandora’s wallpaper is pretty useless (you have the beast on your hands!). But on your desktop it might be useful. Here is quick& (very) dirty mashup, until you can post a higher resolution wallpaper:

I don't know why I'm posting the non-wallpaper versions in 800x480... just makes things easier I guess.

Here's a 1440x900 for people with weird laptops (MacBook Pro 15")

That kind of reminds me of that one disk defragment program for Windows. http://www.computers...eDefrag_Fig.jpg
It takes a long time to defrag but works amazingly.

No hard feelings. I really like your first two images.

Haha, I've never seen that de-fragger before. Never really got more creative than full reinstalls when it came to windows management.

I've switched to doing more productive things, comparatively speaking, now but will probably get tempted into spamming some more artwork.

Really really pretty images. Really. Pretty.

I can't help but think a lot of these ideas could be very very successfully incorporated into startup animations, if those end up being customisable.

An interesting experiment in continuity and flow might be to set up said animation so that the final frame of the animation was the desktop background, with the interface appearing on top of it. Could look interesting, although it's probably off topic for here.

The first one, with the 5 coloured dots, apparently looks good as a startup image. It would be nice to animate them (perhaps pulsating briefly before becoming solid) and finish up with the image as pictured for the desktop background.
