We have decided to use one of these two background wallpapers. Please make a vote, thanks.

i vote None of those.
Think black is best for background reading.
a single sign q2 here and there is fine, not filled up causes distraction for concentration.
The icon,'s letter are very beautiful!.
maybe idea using more those icons colors?.. red,white or using more the letter style in forum?.

Meh, the first one is too grainy (the one that's currently the background) and kinda makes me wanna go out and buy a 800x600 res monitor so I can see what it looks like And the second one is too repetitive, although with layout of the forum, it would be covered, so I see it being less of a problem. But I don't necessarily favor either one to be honest.

The ID background is ugly because it's so big that you can't tell what it is. The Tiled background is ugly because the edges don't blend well enough. Fix either of those problems and either picture will work fine.
I'd prefer if the ID logo was used, however make it smaller and blend the edges - you can't see it because there is a forum in the way!

Thanks for all the contructive criticism and for voting. The main problem is that our forum dos not support auto stretching of the background image to fit all screen sizes. So we have 3 options as I see it. 1. One huge image which leave the smaller screen size only with some of the image and often it will be a bit blury and/or large pix'led. I made the huge Id as a kind of abstract image, where the colour reminded of old Quake2. (also resolution wize) 2. A tiled image which replicate itselfs to any screen size. This image has to be so tiled (many numbers of tiles) that if you have ½ of a tile ending at the borders of the screen, it woun't be ugly to look at. 3. A plain colour. I hear you and will try to make some more options to pick from during the next few weeks. Thanks guys. -W1
