thats 1337 man.

[Qtipie]

jesus, a bit of constructive criticism couldn't hurt. take it or leave it. getting pissy at each other for no particular reason doesn't really do the trick...

[Jokke_r]

was that wallpaper supposed to be a joke?

[dark_angel]

Thanks guys for your support !

I really appreciate it !

[Mongorian]

I could just be biased, but i liked mine better (http://home.earthlink.net/~echron/mp2.jpg) images/icons/grin.gif

[Mongorian]

If anyone is interested, heres another (http://home.earthlink.net/~echron/mp2bg.gif) that i just made upon seeing the new screens.

[Kev_Boy]

^That's quite good images/icons/smile.gif

[Bow]

[RollingBrass]

The second wallpaper of Mongo's would be better if the picture quality was better. Still simple, but it works.

[Crashnet]

Give him a break...for those of you who are bashing his wallpaper, can you do any better? Even if you hate it, don't bash it. Don't post.

Here's (http://www.p0stwh0res.com/uploads/yossa/maxpayne2.png) my attempt.

Re-adjust your monitor, now look at the picture again. A lot of what you thought was black is actually gray. Or if you meant for the black box around the MP2 logo to stand out like a bald guy at a Stratovarius concert you got it spot on!

Look at the gun. Doesn't look much like a gun does it? Shouldn't be much work to cut it to a separate layer and adjust the levels and whatnot separately from the rest of the image to get it to look like a gun in b&w too.

Thank you, come again!

And it looked good on my monitor, so I didn't notice it. Gonna fix it soon.

I considered adding outline, so that the barrel would be more visible, but it looked very much out of place. Not gonna fix it soon.

[Mongorian]

yossa, thats an awesome wallpaper! thanks for sharing it.

[yossa]

Thanks Mongorian! The colour problem is fixed now.

[Mongorian]

Yossa inspired me (http://home.earthlink.net/~echron/mp2background.gif) to create another. images/icons/grin.gif

[yossa]

Very good, I like it!

EDIT: In case you aren't familiar with Sin City, here's (http://hem.passagen.se/fm4/avasub.jpg) a scan from it. I couldn't find the picture I was looking for, and am unable to scan it myself. But i think it gives you an idea.

Good wallpapers guys.

[Mongorian]

\o/

/me jumps for joy.

Thank you, Mr. Broussard!

[The Baskinator]

I made one that said "MAX PAYNE 2: Electric Boogaloo" on it.

[Mongorian]

and you arent going to share it? images/icons/frown.gif

[dark_angel]

Yep !

[Yatta]

worse. wallpaper. ev4r! images/icons/frown.gif

[M]

that's really bad. Seriously.

[D'Arcy]

Have you done that with MS Paint?
If yes, congrats. If not... let´s say it is quite a simple work you know?

[The Baskinator]

It wasn't very good. I made this, though.

http://www.p0stwh0res.com/uploads/thebaskinator/images/max2-BYBASKY.jpg

It stinks, but don't laugh-- I'm very fragile. images/icons/tongue.gif

[pmikhail]

HAHA! Yeah you are right, it does stink.

A lot better than I can do though

[Claws]

LOL.

[Schuby]

where are the screenshots?

[dark_angel]

Well it seems you guys like to live in a 2d world, i can easily add one of these screenshots at the Background and the wallpaper would become nice WORK ! Great Job !

I really appreciate your criticism guys, they where very usefull !

I like it.

[Kev_Hectic]

Ha, I made a couple of my own images/icons/grin.gif I wanted an excuse to try out that silhouette effect Yossa and Mongorian where using. Both are pretty much the same, the difference is one of them has a cheesy brick wall background while the other has is plain white BG, and they're both in 800x600 BTW. I guess I could’ve made 'em bigger.

[yossa]

I like them all graemlins/love.gif Well except maybe for the dark_angel's one images/icons/wink.gif

[pmikhail]

I still prefer the brick wall one.

Reminds me of that ol' saying "Opinions are like a-holes, everyone's got one and they all stink"

[Bow]

wow... every wallpaper (except dark_angels one) was great, yet...
great work, keep it up!

[scorpion]

awsome wallpapers, sept for dark angels

[L3onheart]

Very good work (except Dark Angel's, that's the sorriest excuse for a wallpaper i have ever seen)

[Mongorian]

BUMP!

dont want this thread getting lost images/icons/smile.gif

[Bow]

yeah, otherwise i would have forgotten to thank marine for the fukcing great wallpapers images/icons/wink.gif

[biXen]

Except for Baskinator's submission there isn't much originality here, most of them look like ripoffs of Max Payne 1 wallpapers images/icons/smile.gif A couple of nice ones though.

[Mongorian]

They're in the same vein. Ripoff is so harsh images/icons/grin.gif

[Jokke_r]

my contribution. i made it a little bit max payne1 styled...

http://www.maxpayneheadquarters.com/forums/files/mp2_bg.jpg

[scorpion]

i think it's pretty good jokke_r

[ADM]

heh thanks guys images/icons/smile.gif

[motionblur]

Okay - That's it. You made me make one, too images/icons/mad.gif
images/icons/wink.gif images/icons/tongue.gif

Click me! (http://motionblur.bei.t-online.de/ubbpics/cold_day_in_hell.jpg)

[ADM]

That's pretty cool!

[M]

that's nice. but too much blue.

[Bow]

think so, too... but nice, anyway images/icons/smile.gif

[motionblur]

Hey \o/
Thanks images/icons/smile.gif

I made it blue because of two reasons.
1. It's more depressing
2. I can't stand the black/white anymore, already (you gotta do things a little different, you know images/icons/wink.gif )

[ADM]

I might try making another one.. tommorow though images/icons/smile.gif

[ADM]

Actually I ended up making it now.. I got bored. images/icons/tongue.gif

It didn't end up turning out as good as I hoped though images/icons/frown.gif

[Agent J]

DoomedMarine, if possible could you make a 1024X768 version of this one: http://pete.f2o.org/maxpayne2wall.gif
Thanks.
Edit: N/m, I messed around with it a bit and made a good 1024X768 compromise.
