.blink.
that looks like liqflow travelling through there.
any chance of a blank version, I might just be able to bring that to life.

dude that looks ill...

and that was just a quick thing you did? dang lol

Re: mameo.org panoramic background
 

quite simple really; c4d did most of it by itself.. added the sweeping effect with my wacom board in photoshop..

To make it easier for N900 users should I cut it up into 4x 800x480px versions? if I understand right you add background for each of the four desktops one on one.. yes?

Re: mameo.org panoramic background
 

yesss... a moving background. that would be c to the b to the a-wesome !

man. i have alot of ideas already. man walking. girl walking.

how about an interactive desktop as in a live html page.

could be the news, could be a small 4 window comic(updated every day for new laughter :P). etc.

Re: mameo.org panoramic background
 

How's that for a widget proposal otherwise..?

Re: mameo.org panoramic background
 

my thoughts: Interactive desktop/dashboard is the dashboard itself. ON the dashboard you can place widgets.

if you would make a widget of it, it would be possible too, only it would be smaller. since the screen of the n900 is just 3.5 inch.. it would be real small if it was a widget and thereby taking up alot of space.. space you could use for other widgets. but .. good idea ..damnit. lot of ideas here on this forum :P

Re: mameo.org panoramic background
 

its a shame you can't just zoom into these things.

Re: mameo.org panoramic background
 

I see what you mean and it was a sweet idea, I just had the widget propsal thread in my head,,

Generally I like things like that, it makes the device feel alive and smart. I could see the wallpaper change when I get home, for instance, or gradually change as the seasons change

EDIT: Oooo, or change based on the current weather!
