Northwestern Wallpaper
So here we are... 5-0 and heading on the road against a scrappy Northwestern team possibly led by a former heisman hopeful heisman hopeful quarterback, Dan Persa. After everyone's comments from last week on the Eastern Michigan wallpaper, I wanted to do another animal parody for the Northwestern wallpaper. My original thought was to make use of these in some way:
but I realized that Northwestern shouldn't be mocked like Eastern Michigan (who's more like an infant step-cousin than a "little brother"), lest the football gods smite us for our hubris. Instead, I let myself be influenced by my feminine side and took my inspiration from the musical Cats. Instead of dancers for pupils, though, I went for... DENARD!!!
I figured, unlike the Eastern Michigan wallpaper, this wallpaper makes Northwestern look cool, which will make me feel more satisfied when we beat them!
EDIT: I fixed the widescreen link and changed the game info to "Game 6" instead of "Game 5"... I think I was just psyched about the 5-0 when I made it!

Looks great! The wide screen link goes to just a picture of the adorable kittens (are they called kittens?) though.

Archer says they have little spots and tufted ears. Anyway, awesome wallpaper this week

MUST...HAVE....WIDESCREEN....
This looks great. Keep 'em coming each week. I'll be anxiously awaiting a widescreen link update...

I love these weekly wallpapers, and I appreciate you doing them.

Downloaded and wallpaper updated. All they see at night when they close their little kitty eyes....DENARD!!!!
Without question Michigan is ranked #1 in wallpapers.
Keep up the great work!

Still need the new keyboard huh?

The wallpaper looks great. Also, I applaud your logic on maintaining a respectful tone with your depiction of the 'cats. I mean, we all sports karma exists. No sense on messing with it.

Nice use of color and the execution on the pupil is great. Keep up the good work!

is the obnoxious wildcat noise they play over and over during NU games.

Great Job! I'm really digging your weekly wallpapers. The pupil is really nicely done!

You have a typo in it.
You misspelled "Illinois" where it says "Evanston, Ilinois"
October 3rd, 2011 at 9:06 PM ^
Thanks! fixed...

Great work on the pupil. Some serious pruple. You gonna make one next week or just sit back and let monuMental do his thing? I'm not gonna even try as long as he is making one.
October 3rd, 2011 at 8:55 PM ^
I'm with you... he's got dibs on the rivalries! Plus, he can probably spell Illinois so he's got that going for him... :-)

The more the merrier - I can set up a MSU - Michigan wallpaper carousel then!

I noticed the miss-spelled Illinois but it was already brought up and didn't want to draw more attention to it. I can't spell purple right according to the post above.
Have you ever checked out monuMental's videos of the wallpapers he has created? Dude is a photoshop freak. Take a video of my wallpaper process and you'd see just how clueless I am. It's simply a hobby, way to waste time, and avenue to try and be creative.
I like you work. Good job!

Amen. My video would be a feature-length film of ineptitude... he's a beast.

I love having options every week - and even though the original M artist himself will be doing one for sparty, I'm sure he doesn't mind the friendly competition for "Wall Paper of the Week"
(And great job as always)

I love putting these on my phone during game week. I have no idea how hard these are to resize. If its relatively easy would you consider releasing wallpapers formated for android phones?
These look awesome anyway and I add them to my computer all the time.
Thanks
