Title: Big Enough "Murder Was The Case" Picture?
Post by: 187Proof on July 13, 2008, 11:50:15 AM
I had a special request for anyone that'd be interested in helping me out. I'd like to have the front of the Murder Was The Case soundtrack as my desktop wallpaper, but I need one that'd big enough to do so without looking all distorted. Doe anyone know how I could get this? Thanks!

Best chance is if you were to scan the cd cover at 300 dots per inch (DPI).

What now? Ofcourse I just want the cover as my background & not the white around it, etc....

Thanks a lot homie!...........now I went ahead and applied it as my wallpaper, but it doesn't look right to me for some reason (or maybe it's just me)? What do you guys think? Any suggestions on what to do with it?

I'd rather have the cover itself taking up the whole screen if I can.

Damn, 4 real? That's tight man!

To save a picture of anything on your screen, just hit the "Print Screen" button (which is like copying the picture to your clipboard), then open up MS Paint & paste it in there & save.

lol I already did that man. That's what that picture is above your post (shows it on my desktop already, with my shortcuts on there & everything), but since my monitor is a widescreen it just isn't looking 100% to me, so I was wondering if there's some way to make it look 100% correct?

not by stretching it. you'd have to do some photoshopping to make it look alright on a widescreen

I got a wide screen...you can't see the whole pic, like the album title, but I'm like fuck it, looks good enough for me

Now you're really confusing the hell out of me man. I mean, I posted the pic above that is a screenshot of the album cover as my desktop now, and the album title shows up just fine on there (I just think it looks kind of akward since it is a widescreen).
