Hello everyone,
For about a month now, I have been creating a slew of high-quality and spectacular Avatar wallpapers. On top of that, I have used my web developing abilities to create a wonderful site to showcase my creations.
Currently, my site contains the following:
-18x wallpapers. Each wallpaper has 9 resolutions to choose from, including 1080p!
-A PS3 Theme that contains 9 of the 16 wallpapers (more will be added later)

Thank you for your interest/support!

Thanks!
My wallpaper setup consist of all 25 wallpapers evenly distributed between both my monitors (Monitor #1 = wallpapers 1,3,5,etc...Monitor #2 = wallpapers 2,4,6,etc). The wallpapers will automatically switch each 30 minute interval. To achieve this...I'm using "Display Fusion" :)
love the wallpapers. very cool :)

> Honestly, I'd rate all of them 10 out of 5... These wallpapers are just perfect. You and Na'ViWalker are the right people to bring back memories from the movie. Walker with his awesome signatures, and now you with this "outstanding :nwink:" wallpapers. I wish I could do these... I can fairly photoshop if I need, but I got the creativity of a rock :ntongue:
Zurom
02-05-2010, 11:02 AM
Thanks man, I appreciate it :)
I'm just glad I'm able to give something to people towards this movie because it's deserving :)
Also Na'viWalkers sigs are pretty slick :). I might see if he'll make me one ::nwink:

It'd be nice to have 1920x1200 (normal "computer" resolution) so we don't have to stretch the 1920x1080 ;)
Otherwise, great work and thanks!
Zurom
02-05-2010, 12:48 PM
1920x1200 is a resolution I haven't seen before to be honest. 1920x1080 is usually as large as it goes.
I'll make a couple in 1920x1200 and monitor the rate at which their downloaded and see how popular the resolution is. If it doesn't catch on, I may not continue it because 9 resolutions is a bit of a task as it is.
Thank you for the suggestion regardless :)

BUG REPORT
I have found a bug with the new rating system I have implemented. The logic has a flaw in it and will take some figuring out to get it working fully. In the meantime, you may still submit ratings, that part of it is working fine. Once I get this bug fixed, I'll let you know asap :)

I created them :)
Thanks again everyone!
NOTE: I haven't added any new wallpapers as of late because I've been modifying the layout of the site to be more user-friendly. I'm hoping to have the new version live at some point today ;)
Zurom
02-09-2010, 03:23 PM
I have completed modifying my wallpaper site. The layout has been made easier to navigate through wallpapers. I have Na'viWalker to thank for the base of the idea :)
Toruk
02-09-2010, 03:53 PM
Is it just me or do you have fewer wallpapers up there than before? And it's a little confusing at first like each time you click on a name its a check mark to bring up that set but also all the others you checked but you can't see any marks.
Zurom
02-09-2010, 04:34 PM
Sorry, I'm not sure I follow. Would you mind elaborating further?
Edit: I think I know what you meant...I made a small modification. The dropbox now "holds" the name of the selected wallpaper category.
P.S. I just looked, all 27 wallpapers are being shown on my screen. To be sure however, if you don't mind, can you check if you're viewing the following amounts:
-Jake: 5x wallpapers
-Neytiri: 4x wallpapers
-Jake & Neytiri: 4x wallpapers
-Pandora: 10x wallpapers
-RDA: 3x wallpapers
-Special: 1x wallpaper

> Well, Zurom, I still have the PNG versions of your wallpapers. Are they on the same quality? If so, I'll delete my PNG's ones and keep the JPEG. It takes some time for Windows Desktop Background Slideshow to switch a huge PNG image :nsad:
Zurom
02-10-2010, 04:44 PM
You no doubt. The JPEG versions are roughly half the size of the PNG files. I personally don't see much of a difference though, which is why I decided to switch. I didn't want to release low-quality wallpapers, so I think you should be ok making the switch to JPEG :)
Also, speaking of quality, I'm very interested to see how much of a difference the Blu-ray wallpapers will be ;)

Sorry for the confusion bud.
Under each thumbnail, there's a dropbox that reads "Resolution". Clicking on that will reveal all available resolutions. Simply clicking on the resolution that applies to you will start the download.

Wow. I've never, ever, seen any type of download system like this. It's quite odd.
Normally, the page loads up the image resolution right then and there, then I simply save it manually to my files.
Anyway, if I can't find a way now, I think I'll try Google Chrome like you suggested.

Hey, I cannot seem to access the website for some reason. Whenever i click your link on your post it tries to load the website, but fails. It shows me this:

The requested URL /56854238423/index.php was not found on this server.
Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.
Apache/1.3.33 Server at www.pmlegion.com Port 80
I have tried it on 2 computers, and 2 browsers on both computers. Firefox 3.6 and Google Chrome 4.1
I would love to see those wallpapers, let me know if you find out why i cannot find the webpage. Maybe you could get another link or something?

You're all too welcome. I've spent countless hours doing this to support the message behind Avatar. That there are some of us that can live without greed, which is why I do this for the fans of the movie and not money
The only payment I receive are the wonderful comments from yourself and many others ^^
P.S. - I've currently made 73 wallpapers and am aiming for 100. I have just got my hands on some images of the other pivotal characters in the movie.

On my paper her face is more towards the camera. So pretty!
Cool you put them also in 1600*900 because that seems to be one of the more rare screen resolutions and I always have to cut and crop them myself to fit on my monitor.

I put 1600x900 because that's the resolution I use :)
Thanks again for all your wonderful comments everyone.
As you may have noticed, however, I haven't made any new wallpapers as of late. The reason for this is I'm currently working on a photography site for a friend of mine. I'm not sure when I'll be done, but I should be back to making more wallpapers afterward.
