With this talk of computers I'm curious. What monitor resolution you use?
I'm playing around with a Shopsmith wallpaper I can make it available to everyone here when I'm done.
What sizes would I need to edit to. It's low priority I'm doing it in my cool down time when it's HOT out.

I'm not happy with it but here's my first draft.
I guess I'll put on desktop a few days to figure out just what it is I dont like.

I guess I understand the gold and brown back ground but as a background I would prefer a softer color (blue).
I also do not care for the reflection.
Neat graphics however.
Are copyright laws involved when doing something like this?

Must have been taken down all I see is red X where the photo/picture/screen shot should be.

Your original question was what our monitor resolution was.
It is 1600 x 900 @ 60hz.

Full HD 1920x1024 but the sides have icons so try to keep it clean.

1440x900 on mine but I can always fill as long as the format is right...
Thank for your effort.

Mine is 1920 x 1080 but SWMBO prefers 1600 x 900.
Doesn't make much difference because we both know how to quickly change the resolution if desired.
Nice design work! Thanks for the offer to share.
