Re: MiSTer Wallpapers
I rather like the close up "arty farty" shots of machines but i couldn't find a good one for all the machines i wanted.
So i grabbed images at high res and cropped and cleaned em to get that "arty farty" look and complete my set.
Heres a bunch you might not have seen...
And i just slammed this one together, does the MiSTer do G&W ???
Hope you like.

Re: MiSTer Wallpapers
I've blatantly stolen Milpix's reimagined Galaga ship/cannon models for my latest wallpaper fad:

Re: MiSTer Wallpapers
Thats good news. Got my first Ninty G&W (Octopus) back in 83 (so long ago, i "think" it was 83). So i've got a lot of love for the whole range of these things, including Mattel, Russian clones, Bandai, Coleco et al. Used to run Handheld Remakes website too, long gone, shame....

Re: MiSTer Wallpapers
Was thinking the other day, what if I could incorporate those characers from some skins I have into a retro wallpaper. Was thinking Tron type grid and they are materilizing into the game so to speak.
Anyway the result is above, here are a few more and working through characters that I have whenever I get a while.
Won't mailbomb this thread with loads beyond this post unless there is an interest, but let me know if you want me to add them in batches every once in a while.

Re: MiSTer Wallpapers
Hi,
I've tried the cool CRT wallpaper of Ranny Snice :
https://twitter.com/RannySnice
with this settings :
[Menu]
video_mode=320,8,32,24,240,4,3,16,6048
vga_scaler=1
fb_terminal=1
But now my MiSTer menu is very large, I don't like it :
Is there anything to do to have something like the original menu size, like this one :
Thanks a lot!

User u/nenadgrujicic on Reddit made many fabulous illustrations, I lazily turned them into wallpapers to share their great work:

I created a custom background, named it menu.jpg, copied it to the root folder, but I still get static even after spamming the F1 button. Is there anything that could be interfering with this? I mostly use my MiSTer on a CRT, but I'm testing on a modern TV to make sure.
Not sure if it's because of some color limitation, but this is the background I'm trying to load. (Feel free to use it, hopefully I'll be able to soon.)

Re: MiSTer Wallpapers
I'm not what I'd call good at photography, but I kind of liked this fuzzy attempt at a macro shot of my MiSTer, and had it as my wallpaper for a good long while. On the off-chance anyone else is into it, here you go!

Re: MiSTer Wallpapers
Too bad, I wish they would add them to update all. I mean it updates all right
EDIT:
Extracted 111 wallpapers / 99MB from this thread and bundled them.
I probably missed a few and there might be an avatar or two floating in there:
MiSTer Wallpaper Pack 1.0
Re: MiSTer Wallpapers
Wallpaper's really taste-dependent, everyone's varies. Wallpaper suitability also varies by the resolution a person runs their MiSTer at, and can take significant storage space if nice clean PNGs are used.
That said, the MiSTer's built-in wallpaper choices are spartan to the extreme. Maybe a small (relatively neutral in content?) wallpaper starter pack+ could be nice to have available.
The revamped MiSTer Downloader script lets you easily add additional archives to sync to; projects like MiSTer BGM and Super Attract Mode make use of this to allow effortless in-place updates. Someone could create a nice wallpaper project on Github and allow users to automatically pull any updates in a similar fashion.
I actually made a collection of wallpapers in three resolutions (1080p, iPad, some other res) some time ago that I've been meaning to share here but haven't gotten around to packaging it yet. (Also the HDD it was on just died Saturday but that's another story, lol.)
