Sugar Bowl Wallpapers

I love the wallpapers we see over at http://theartthearttheart.com, so I decided to try one of my own.  It's definitely not on par with what has been produced for previous wallpapers, but I thought it turned out well, so I wanted to share.  I'd love to see some other wallpapers people have made for the game.

 

Here's mine:

Reflections Sugar Bowl v1

Now in a mobile size!

Sugar Bowl Reflections Mobile Version

EDIT: Per suggestion, I've added a version with more subtle team logos.

Reflections Sugar Bowl v2

I'm not amazing at cropping to proper widths for average users because I use my TV as a monitor @ 1920 x 1080.  I did make it smaller, so hopefully it looks ok and doesn't take up the whole screen in the preview.  Let me know what you think.  Thanks!

EDIT: Thanks for all the feedback.  I did another, just in case those of you who like variety haven't gotten your fix anywhere else.

Pro Combat vs Adidas Sugar Bowl

Aaaannnnddd mobile:

Sugar Bowl Pro Combat vs Adidas Mobile

EDIT III: Ok, the high res are up thanks to imageshack who, it seems, is the only major image-hosting service that doesn't down-size your high-res photos.  Anyway, enjoy!

I envision a spoon with a U of M logo spreading some sugar over a bowl of grapes.  The bowl would have an MSU logo.

You have to imagine that the grapes are sour for the complete effect.

Clicking on the pic should take you to the higher-res versions on photobucket.  Let me know if this is not working for you.  It was working before my last edit, so perhaps something between edits messed up.

Ok, so I'm new to this uploading photos thing.  Apparently, all the hosting sites I've used thus far reduce the image size dramatically.  Sorry about that.  I think imageshack does not, so I'll be updating with the proper images with high-res size.

I like the customized bag of sugar.  The only change I'd make is to maybe change the weight of the sugar to 16lbs or something like that as an homage to Denard.  I loved that the "nutritional information" was instead "player statistics."  Good work!
