plowking's NBA Wallpaper Thread

[plowking]

So I had a bit of free time to finally play around with programs like Photoshop and GIMP, and decided to make a few NBA Wallpapers. Keep in mind, I've only started, so go easy on me. :D I guess if the reception is good enough, I'll make and upload a few more. And if any Photoshop/GIMP users have any tips on how to make them better that would be great
The images have all been resized to 800x600, though if you click on the link below them you can get a better 1900x1200 view.

Well I can't promise mine will be much better. :oldlol:

Only three total blocks? You need to step your blocking game up.

[Power_Ballin]

LOL, angry Cavs fan? :lol

[plowking]

:oldlol: You call that wallpaper? :oldlol:

I could make better wallpaper with my eyes closed. :oldlol:

Like I said, if you're a Photoshop pro or better than me, I'm happy to take notes on how to make them better.

Post some of your own, I'd be glad to learn a few things.

[plowking]

Nah, I'm scared just like you are when people ask me to do things. :oldlol:

So you don't know how to make wallpapers?

[plowking]

For NBA4EVER, not sure if it's what you're looking for, but I gave it a shot:

[plowking]

I can do it better than you, but since you liked screwing with my threads so much, I'm just not going to show any here.

I posted an opinion. You disagreed with it.

Why not just post a wallpaper. You think I have some e-grudge against you? I don't care. One topic? Meh. I disagree with other posters as well.

[pete's montreux]

it wasnt mine it was some other guy on another forum

I figured that out after a second look. Boobie didn't play 48 minutes, of course it wasn't you.

For those of you who love Rondo

I disagree with Plowking often, but I still commend him for taking the time out to make these. When it comes to making avatars and such, most people agree with each and put differences aside...

[plowking]

Wow, you'd have to be one of the best on this site RG.

How did you manage to put across that neon blue smoke in the image? Any specific effects?

[plowking]

Have any good Wade ones by any chance?

[1~Gibson~1]

Richie (Denver fan) makes cool GT images, he can probably make a good poster as well

[plowking]

Have you got any others you've specifically made? I liked the Rondo one. You'd surely have some of Kobe seeing as he's your favorite player?

And how did you manage to do the neon blue smoke across the Rondo one?

[plowking]

http://www.mixmakers.net/forums/wallpaper-display/215582-rondo.html

Hey RocketGreatness, why is it that this guy on the mixmakers forum has posted that exact same Rondo wallpaper and claimed it as his own? Furthermore, that can't be you seeing as the guy is a Phoenix Suns supporter...

:oldlol:

Exposed much?

Only ever really put time in to one, wanted to have a michael jordan (favorite player) desktop on my old computer so I whipped this up:

Ever heard of cnc or collab?? I guess not. :ohwell:

[plowking]

That's nice Fatal.

What effect did you use around the Jordan doing the layup? The white light you have going around him? Is it just to do with lights and shadows basically?

[Fatal9]

That's nice Fatal.

What effect did you use around the Jordan doing the layup? The white light you have going around him? Is it just to do with lights and shadows basically?
If I remember correctly those type of effects you need to do layering (overlay, color changes, gradient overlays) and also need to have a good set of brushes. On that specific wall, I am sure there were over 100 layers...

[plowking]

Ever heard of cnc or collab?? I guess not. :ohwell:

You shouldn't claim other people's work as your own.

You've been exposed, so you can stop with the excuses. :oldlol:

You make that Abe or just get it off a website?

Are you a professional graphics designer or something?

[plowking]

I'd like for you to tell me where I said that was my wallpaper. I'd like for you to make a good wallpaper, I'd like for you to own somebody.

Too bad none of those have happened


:roll:

You just backtracked to the nth degree. :roll:

First it was your own, then it was a collab, now it's not yours. :oldlol:

Furthermore, you implied it with your Wade post.

Where? Show my evidence, I said I didn't make those wade wallpapers. and I didn't even say I made the Rondo Wallpaper Did I? All I said was for you Rondo lovers.

Did I say I made it? No I didn't, goes to show you what kind of reading they teach in Wade dick sucking school. :oldlol:

[plowking]

Says the guy who posts other people's work and claims it as his own.

Have fun in university if you ever make it there. That's one of the things that's not acceptable.

Well until you show me exactly what I said, I'd love to admit to it, but I never said it was my wallpaper. It's too bad because you are killing your own thread now. :oldlol:

[Fatal9]

Didn't you say it was a "collab"? Pretty much implied you had a hand in making that. In the next post you said you never claimed you made it. :confusedshrug:

[plowking]

A tad too simple, though I thought anything extra would only ruin it.

[plowking]

I collab, but I didn't make it. Collab is just helping out, but not doing much. In other wise Plowking fails again. :oldlol:

Funny how that post just dissapeared right? :oldlol:

[plowking]

You mean the Wade wallpapers? I didn't want you to get an erection.

Sure, or the fact that you claimed you made the Rondo wallpaper in that post. Give up bud.

Might as well retire this account just like you did with iTruWarrior. Come back with a new account and ask for rep. No one will know it's you...

Remind you of anyone? :oldlol:

And you honestly think people are going to believe you're still not under 17 years old with lame ass remarks like that? :oldlol:

The evidence is still there. After being exposed, you claimed it as a collab. Once that didn't work you completely backed off.

You backtracked big time, and those posts are still there. :oldlol:

[plowking]

Oh it's cool dude, it was just telling you that I'd finished your wallpaper. I'll keep looking at all these different techniques and I'll make another Nate one soon enough. I'm pretty happy with how the Harris one turned out, so hopefully the next few look decent as well.

And if you dont mind, could you make it bigger than that harris one... it was blurry on my screen coz the img was small

[InspiredLebowski]

Hey plowking, think you could make a Granger one like that 2nd T-Will one, but the photo on the right? Or just the circle Indy logo to make it (assumedly) easier. That'd be sweet and I'll promise to stop laughing at MIA for trading for JO.

[Agent_Zero]

Can I get a Gil and Kobe wallpaper?

[plowking]

And if you dont mind, could you make it bigger than that harris one... it was blurry on my screen coz the img was small

The Harris image was blury? Or the actual wallpaper itself?

Did you set the image in the thread as the wallpaper or the link below it? The link below it is better quality.

I was thinking of making a Granger one in that T-Will style before, though was busy with these other requests. It shouldn't be too hard.

Agent Zero I'll get to your requests as well.



As for now, I'll work on these. If any other posters have requests, I'll get to them after I've done these.

[nbastatus]

thanks plowking! that wallpaper of ray allen is pretty good. except, ray looks a bit funny.
if you have free time, can you make a wallpaper of greg oden on a wheelchair? so i can gift to my special friend, rosecity

How about a DeJuan Blair wallpaper? Or a Dennis Rodman one? Either way, I will appreciate it.

[plowking]

Agent Zero, here's you're Gil and Kobe wallpapers. I don't have any icons on my desktop, so I usually put the players on the left side, as I did with the Arenas one. But if you want him on the other side just tell me. Remember the links below the pictures are the ones you want to set as wallpapers. They're better quality:

Is there a particular style you want it in Kebab? Just browse through the thread and if there is a particular one you want it to look like then it makes it easier. Or are you looking for something completely different?

[plowking]

Still taking requests guys. Just browse through the thread and if you like a particular style, tell me which player you want in there. If there isn't anything that tickles your fancy just tell me the player.

After lookign through the thread, I like the styles that you have for Harris, Noah and Arenas. Especialy Noah. I think that with someone like Rodman or Blair though, I'd like something a little bit more unique, if that's cool.

thanks in advance :)

[Agent_Zero]

Yeah I love that Kobe one, good stuff but if you could get the Arenas one on the right side and make it a bit of a darker color with him shooting or something that would be cool if it's not too much trouble. thanks again.

No worries, onto it now.

Hey Richie, just on those effects behind players like Kobe and Parker, are you just using brushes, or have you done something else there?

[Richie2k6]

Richie xnay on the wallpaper ay. :oldlol:

Haha, blows my stuff out the water. How long you been going at it?

Good to know RocketGreatness' sorrow bitter ass still visits my thread lol.
Probably about 5 years now lol. Your stuff is nice for a beginner though. Didn't mean to hijack your thread though. Let me know if you want any tips or have questions or what not.

[Richie2k6]

Hey Richie, just on those effects behind players like Kobe and Parker, are you just using brushes, or have you done something else there?
The effect on the left side of the Kobe one is an abstract picture I googled and edited a bit. The effects behind Parker are mostly brushes.

[plowking]

Ah okay, how long you been at this stuff? What kinda stuff you making now?

[Richie2k6]

About 5 years and mostly posters and different kinds of walls and vectors and all that random stuff.

[plowking]

About 5 years and mostly posters and different kinds of walls and vectors and all that random stuff.

Got another 4 years and 50 weeks to get to that level.

Well that's the way I'm looking at it. :oldlol:

Basic Photoshop tutorial from WCX for anyone who wants to start learning:



West Coast Remix - Wallpaper Tutorial For Begginers

Welcome to the first official wallpaper tutorial, brought to you by the team here at West Coast Remix. This tutorial will give all you beginers an insight on how to create your very own desktop wallpapers. I will go through each step thoroughly, to ensure
we get the job done first time. If you have any further questions, visit the FAQ page here.

Step 1: Open up your version of Adobe Photoshop

Step 2: Go to File > New

Step 3: A box will appear requesting for details. The numbers we will be inputting are just page sizes.

Step 3: Enter - Width: 1024 pixels
Height: 768 Pixels
Also, make sure the Transperent box is ticked. It is located under the contents menu. Furthermore, select RGB (apposed to CMYK which is used primarily for print or Grayscale)

Step 4: Now we are ready to start. We will start off by getting the picture we wish to use. Make sure its a big high quality one. The bigger the better.

Step 5: Place your picture in a new window.

Step 6: Select the eraser tool and slowly rub away the area around the player you are cropping. Make sure you rub away a little bit of their skin/jersey so it looks clean cut. Also, try make your movements fluent so the player is not jagged.

Step 7: Keep your cropped picture ready to copy over into your wall. For now we will make a simple bg, ready for you to put your picture on.

Step 8: Select 2 colors of your choice. Do this by picking 2 colors from the color selection tool in the tool bar. Try and chose team colors. EG. Marbury Orange and Blue. Kobe Purple and Yellow

Step 9: Go to Filter>Render>Clouds. As you can see, clouds have been placed in the bg. Now to spice it up.

Step 10: Go to Filter>Blue>Radial Blur. Make sure intensity is set to 100 and method is Zoom. Do this twice.

Step 11: Now copy your cropped picture (CTRL A then CTRL C) and paste it onto your clouded bg you made in steps 8 through 10. Now paste it on the coulds (CTRL V)

Step 12: Move your picture into the middle of the document by using the aarow tool located in the toolbar. By putting the picture in the middle, gives the affect that the player is creating teh energy from behind.

Step 12: Now to add some text. We want to make the wall look clean, aswell as looking good. Chose a font (Impact, Verdana or any other fonts you have downloaded that are boxy and simple) and put your chosen text on the wall. Name, team, number, position, stats can all be included.

Step 13: Situate the text in a nice position. Possibly
underneath or over the top of the player.

Step 14: Now add some credits. These let people know who made the wallpaper and also give credit to the picture sources. A suggestion for a credit line would be.
Pictures From: www.nba.com Wall By: John Smith (john@email.com)

Your done! Save it as a .jpeg file and also a .psd file. Put it on your desktop and admire! If you need to make changes, go ahead and do so!

Plowking,

Great job so far, I can't even do it half as good as you. Repped

Richie, those look insane. Repped


NBA4Ever- Great job on yours as well. Repped

[plowking]

Where do you download the software?

You can download GIMP for free.
Just search for it on google.

[plowking]

Should have a few new ones up soon.

Well I'm just about to finish a Wade one. See how you like it. If not, I'll make another one.

[jecee101]

DeJuan Blair?

Still coming. My bad. Just trying to get a bit better, so messing around with this stuff a bit.

[Splitz77]

somebody should make me a boston celtics one. But huge. I have a 22 inch computer screen. So all of the wallpapers made so far look like crap on my screen when their streched that far out.

I will Rep, for a good boston celtics background.

[Kebab Stall]

Still coming. My bad. Just trying to get a bit better, so messing around with this stuff a bit.
I'm excited now.

If you could make a Wilson Chandler wallpaper with that exact style, except maybe with a blue or orange background, I'd love you forever. lol

Much thanks and rep will follow.

No worries. Will do.

Next coming up are Blair, Eric Gordon, Paul Pierce and Wilson Chandler wallpapers.

[BallPhunk]

Plowking - your stuff is getting better. Keep it up as it's obvious you're enjoying it.

And seeing RocketGreatness be a total d!ck at the start of the thread, then pimp someone's work as his own, and finally shown to be an ass made my week!

Everyone should try and be creative in one way or another. Good luck.

Wow, that is awesome.

Your work is definitly getting better.

[plowking]

I guess they're coming out cleaner and a bit better looking due to the black background. I've noticed it helps makes it look a little less amateurish. :oldlol:

[Miller Time]

I just made this Danny Granger wallpaper (I think this is the 3rd wallpaper I've ever done and I haven't used Photoshop in a long time).

http://img125.imageshack.us/img125/8610/dannygrangerwallpaper2.jpg



Hope you enjoy it, I am currently using it as my desktop wallpaper.

[plowking]

Wow, nice work Miller Time.

I think I have to start using Photoshop. I've been using GIMP most of the time, due to being familiar with it; though it seems as though images/colors/blends always turn out far clearer on Photoshop than they do with GIMP.

[Miller Time]

I've never used GIMP, I got my photoshop online for free, just download it ;)

From what I have heard though, photoshop seems to be better.

Can you give me a link for it? Because I've only got it on my home computer and not laptop. Plus I haven't got the CD for it so I can't install it.

Been searching for photoshop for ages on google but I can't seem to find a megaupload or rapidshare link anywhere.

[TMT]

plowking, save your work as a png file. They come out much nicer.

[plowking]

Thanks for the tip. I'm going to try and get photoshop on my laptop seeing as I barely ever have time to get on my home computer. So hopefully this will improve the quality a tad as well.

[Buffalobraves]

If anyone wants to make or has a Thunder wallpaper with Westbrook and Durant on it could I get a link?

I had it automatically set to save as a jpeg file, so I totally forgot about it. :hammerhead: Will be saving it as a png with the next bunch.

Your work is getting better with every wallpaper. Those last 3 are excellent.

[Maniak]

Should have some new ones up soon. Keep the requests coming, as I want to get better at this stuff.

Coming up next is the Lakers fab five.

[NuggetsFan]

If you don't mind I'd enjoy a nice Nuggets wallpaper :pimp:

The whole team if you can or like Billups\Melo\J.R\Nene\K-Mart..

[Maniak]

I'd ask for a Suns one, but our starting lineup is still being worked out :lol so I wont waste your time with that.

Probably later on in a few monthz when we have a more set roster.

[NY Comeback]

Thanks Plowking! :cheers:

[TheAnchorman]

I don't know if this has already been done (correct me if I'm wrong), but would you be willing to make an Eric Gordon and/or Derrick Rose wallpaper? Nuggets fan here but I always appreciate the newer faces of the league.

[plowking]

Anchorman check back a page. I did an Eric Gordon one. Though if you don't like it, just PM me or post here and I will make another one.

Here's the Lakers background:

Does anyone know the deal with Tinypic? Do they automatically convert your picture to .jpeg, because I had the file saved as .png.

[plowking]

Just to remind everyone once again that the links below the pictures are better quality.

Also next coming up is Rose, Durant and Westbrook, Nuggets team and Amare.

[plowking]

Finished the Amare and Nuggets wallpaper and also did a Wade one as well. Remember the link below the picture is better quality, so click on it and set that as your wallpaper, and not the one in this thread.

[v-unit]

Wow, I didn't click this thread initially because I assumed it was just like the other threads, but this is really amazing stuff.

Can you do a Gilbert Arenas one (I know you did one before) but one similar to this one? (Dwayne Wade looking up on black backgruond with his name and funky design on the side), but instead of him looking up, could you make it so its his back showing with his jersey on and his hands up like he hit a game winner? This is just being specific though, not a necessity. Whatever you can do is fine. thanks and will rep

http://i43.tinypic.com/zkmy2o.jpg

[plowking]

I'll get to all the requests guys.

Mavericks, Nate, New Jersey, Westbrook and Durant, Wally's request, Gilbert and Johnny Flynn all coming up.

And I'll be sure to get to all the requests guys.

Snipes, I'm not exactly good at photoshopping jerseys and even when they are photoshopped they don't look that great, though I'll see what I can do. If not, I'll find one in a different pose if that's okay.

[t-rud349]

Anyway I can get a Eddie House one?

If you have the time a Thunder wallpaper would be sweet.

With Durant and Westbrook on it or at least Durant.

Hey Plow, I've been using Photoshop for 10+ years in various graphic based jobs! Just wanted to say your work rocks!! I'm travelling europe with my laptop, but as u can see by my kobe in a twolves jersey I didn't bring my pen tablet! Lol I'd be keen to see what you could come up with for a KEVIN LOVE WALLPAPER if you get a chance!

[Buffalobraves]

Thanks a lot for the one you did for me. Repped.

[t-rud349]

Thank a lot for the wallpaper. Much Appreciated

[plowking]

No worries guys.

These will be the last few I do. I'll keep making some, though when I eventually get better, I'll bump the thread in 6 months or so and post the new stuff.

[plowking]

Bout time for a bump. :D

Here are some of the requests, and some I made:

If you like these remember to set the links below as the wallpapers as they are better quality. In the case of the Stuckey one, I made it in 1024x768 so that's the only quality.

Furthermore, I'll take a few requests again, so if you would like some of a particular player just shout out in the thread.

[Maniak]

Sorry for not responding about the Clark one earlier. Im sticking with the Mayo one you made before for awhile, but that one is good. You are defiantly getting better. Good stuff :cheers:

Keep em coming

[Agent_Zero]

I know you already made one for me but could you do a wallpaper with like various defining moments of that bulls/celtics series with some cool graphics on it or something like that you know? like some stick out some fade in? thanks in advance.

[magnax1]

If some one could make a John Stockton Wall Paper I would forever be indebted and would rep.

[unknown101]

Do you think you could do a wallpaper of Hakeem Olajuwan.

Will rep.

[Al Thornton]

Can you make a Eric Gordon wallpaper please?

[plowking]

Can you make a Eric Gordon wallpaper please?

Check a couple pages back, there should be one. If you don't like it, tell me, and I'll make another one. If you want it made in a particular style is well, tell me.

Will get to all the wallpapers, though it will be a while, so I'll PM all once done.

[NBA4EVER]

i took the idea from this wallpaper:

http://www.basketwallpapers.com/Images-06/Josh-Smith-Hawks-Widescreen-Wallpaper.jpg

and made it into this wallpaper:

IF ANYONE WANTS THIS WALLPAPER, JUST ASK ME AND I CAN GET IT FOR YOU IN ITS FULL SIZE

[Human Error]

thank you, repped by the way.
Hey, how come you got to use SNSD's pic as an avatar? You don't seem to be a Korean.

[Undisputed]

Would someone make a Derrick Rose wallpaper with this picture being the main theme

[Kebab Stall]

http://i39.tinypic.com/35d95pl.jpg

There's the updated Rodman one Kebab. I'm still working on the Blair one.

Any more requests from other posters? Should be making a new Brandon Roy one anyway.
I was just wondering if it were possibly to get a more Rodman-esque background for this one? I understand you have other requests and this is only an update, so to speak, so just me at the bottom of the list and hopefully you come up with something badass.

[josh99]

You've inspired me... I will now attempt to create an Orlando wallpaper.

[Quizno]

wow plowking, I went through all the pages and the improvement you've made is drastic. :applause: keep it up!

oh, and if you have time, could you make a Gerald Wallace one with "Charlotte Bobcats #3" as the text? much appreciated man! :cheers:

[GreatGreg]

Can someone do the Chicago Bulls starting lineup, in a black background with red waves, and the Bulls logo somewhere in there? thanks. If you don't know, the Bulls starting lineup is

PG-Derrick Rose
SG-John Salmons
C-Joakim Noah
SF-Luol Deng
PF-Tyrus Thomas

Why exactly did you find a need to post that?

[josh99]

What do you think?

Nice work Josh. Just a bit of advice, watch your cutting of images. See on Jameer's left hand near the ball how there are remains of the previous background? I had trouble with that when starting as well. Now when I'm cutting an image of a player, I cut slightly inside the outline of the player, so that it assures no background from the previous pic is carried in.

NBA4EVER, you can take over this thread man. Your stuff is better than just about all of mine and its only your 3rd go! Nice work. Feel free to help me out with some of the requests if you want man. It would help.

Anyway, here are a few I was doing in my spare time, and a few of the requests. Remember the better quality pictures are in the link below.

More of the requests coming. Anyone wanting any wallpapers done? Still doing requests. Hakeem and Chicago team. If I have skipped over your request just remind me if I haven't mentioned it here again.

So yeah, hit me up if you want a request done.

EDIT: 9,000 Posts already? Good to know I spend too much time here. :cheers:

[Basketman]

Can you resize the Dennis Rodman wallpaper to 1440x900 plz?

[plowking]

Can you resize the Dennis Rodman wallpaper to 1440x900 plz?

Sure thing.

[plowking]

Basketman, can't you just change the setting on your desktop to fit perfectly on the screen? Because there's a 1900x1200 version in the link below the Rodman picture.

[Mississippi]

Request: A Mississippi wallpaper with a big Mississippi silhouette centered in the back of these players: Mo Williams, Monta Ellis, Travis Outlaw, Antonio McDyess, and Al Jefferson. Then put Mississippi's Finest and script somewhere in the middle. That would be dope.

Actually I don't know how. I tried the 1900x1200 version. It looks compacted and ugly when I set it as desktop.
