Agreed, I'm at a loss as to why people are still making wallpapers at 800x600 and 1024x768, my computer is by no means a beast, but I run my desktop at 1920x1440.
I still use 1024x768 on my other machine, but that'll probably change when I get a new monitor for it.

:( It's not my fault my plug and play monitor won't let me change the resolution...

My laptop's resolution is 1024 x 600. I have to manually resize and crop all potential desktop backgrounds.

Why would you want to spell it like that in the first place, when in your background image you spelled it right?

Because he calls Pikkon - Pikkon - in real life, but knows the original name and respects it.

Good enough for me. I was just wondering. Very nice picture by the way. If I was into Paikuhan like that, then I would have definitely used it.

Wow, that's really nice. :shock:

I'd love to see you make some of those for other characters.

Mabye we should start making requests, guys 'n' gals. ;)

The image itself is very nice. Still, it stretches out on my monitor and looks pretty bad.

As for requests, well, I think my first couple choices might be a bit obvious. =p

1024x768 is still the most common resolution around, IIRC.

So, anything I make, wallpapers, site layouts and so on are usually catered for that even though I'm on 1440x900.

Add me to the list of people who like this wallpaper but who doesn't like Paikuhan enough to put him on my desktop. Good job. :D

If there were requests, I'd probably get around to it. I have school, though so I may do it on the weekend.

Because some of us aren't graphics whores. :P

Or just have bad eyes. Like me.

But even then I see absolutely no point in using anything greater than 800x600 for anything but games. It's pointless and just makes everything Too Fucking Small™
