Oh yeah I forgot that too...

I won't just copy and paste a boing ball, I'll render graphics I draw or model myself to create my 2 wallpapers.

Thats right 2 ORIGINAL wallpapers. No copy and paste over someone else's
work... ORIGINAL WORK Thats how I roll.

This tremendous amount of work is being offered for a limited time for just the cost of an os4 or morphos machine and shipping.

Think of the extreme benefits buying this machine for me will have for the os4 and morphos communities. Come on, donate.

TWO WALLPAPERS could be yours!

You gotta be joking with me?

Here are some small examples of my original work devoted to Amiga:

[all drawn by myself]

http://djnick2k.deviantart.com/art/A...F22636401&qo=8
[here I've stolen: 1 retro TV [I've found on Google images], 3 NewYork buildings, stolen a young couple with a kid which I had to cut & fill with blue color]

http://djnick2k.deviantart.com/art/A...F22636401&qo=9
[here I placed a vector ball I've bought on Shutterstock for $2 and mix it with rendered boing-ball also found on the internet]

http://djnick2k.deviantart.com/art/A...F22636401&qo=4
[here I mixed 3 various vector and non-vector backgrounds I've bought from Shutterstock, mixed with several space images and a boing-ball. Amiga text is stolen using freeware for from www.dafont.com]

http://djnick2k.deviantart.com/art/A...F22636401&qo=3
[here I placed 4 different vector backgrounds from iStock, mixed with something I draw myself]

http://djnick2k.deviantart.com/art/A...F22636401&qo=1
[Completelly stolen image of space planets [I just didn`t have that much free time to create similar space art] & mixed with several layers of animated smoke & dirt... Also font I used I steal from free site www.dafont.com.]

http://www.amigaos.net/
Completelly done for free [in normal case, just design will cost ~800 - 1000 euros]

http://www.pagestream.org/
Done in exchange for full copy of PageStream. Unfortunatelly Deron never implemented whole site and 100% as I've drawn in original PSD file.

Anyway... here's short link so if bored, scroll down, there is a lots of more...

And this is WIP [how I plan to make nice looking skins]:

In short: I am very busy man, really having not much free time to watch a movie, even spend talking bull**** here, I am working online for over 12 companies, working web sites, games, music, sound effects, videos... and I have very high experience in grapiX editing.

So be happy I spend that much time on AmigaOS drawing some free wallpapers.

As I promised, I will deliver improved skinsof AmigaOS, lots of gfx and skins for players, MUI, sound effects for loading AmigaOS sequence and other sh*t.

If I will be developer or in development team, I would know EXACTLY what priorities will be in OS4 development & make it attractive to outside world.

I am thankful for AmigaOS community to give me SAM460, but do not forget that I also invested 400 euros more [I didn`t have] and 6 months of free pieces of time, here and there and finally completed SAM system.

People around me laugh me for spending time and money for AmigaOS. But thats where I am crazy and I love that system. Okay, people say, let me show you some of latest youtube videos I've found today - sorry, impossible... no working Youtube player. Lets see some cool HD movie I just bring with me, lets play it on your new Amiga - not possible...

Everything that becomes somehow a standard today is still impossible and have to find its ways to avoid and play a video or audio... Damn lots of work, and world is moving very fast.

So ppl, stay calm, lets make AmigaOS a better place. I am sure there is not much people willing to help like me. Even I have lots of work, I will deliver what I promised for free.

period.

People are getting worked up because this person grubbed a free os4 machine from the users in order to work on projects to benefit the amiga community.

So far this 3 minute cut and paste job, which was admittedly not even done on an amiga or amiga software is all he has delivered.

Anyone know when it was that people donated to this joke? I seem to recall it was quite a long time ago. Someone does need to locate those posts of him grubbbing for money so he could do all these great projects for the amiga community.

In other news if anyone will buy me a morphos or amiga os4 machine I'll
make 2 wallpapers. Thats right, and I will do it the same day I receive those computers. Thats DOUBLE the benefit to the morphos or os4 communities.

Thats right for a limited time, I'll offer DOUBLE the work this guy did to get his free os4 machine. DOUBLE Thats how I roll.

Okay, it mean spirited comments like this that drive people away. Check out the original post and you'll see he was doing it for fun and wanted to share. I'm sorry that you don't understand how ideas, concepts and situations can be turned on their heads when unknown situations and the like pop up. apparently all of the projects you have ever started finished on time without any hiccups or delays. You are a god among pitiful mortals and we tremble in your presence.

How 'bout this, oh great and powerful Oz, you can start posting like you are a grown up or you will find yourself banned for a week. this goes for everyone else. I'm getting really sick of getting onto this site, read a new post with something cool or new only to have the OP get ripped to shreds by people like you.

Curious about where he is? PM HIM!!!! You MIGHT just find out that you know something that he doesn't and be able to HELP HIM instead of berate him!

[haywirepc]

Okay I stand corrected,someone else asked for the donations... but he did take the free machine...

I'll still do two wallpapers for a free machine. TWO.

Of course I've had many projects not finish on time, but not projects where I held a grubathon first for free equipment for those projects.

And I'm sorry, I didn't know I could be banned for having an opinion.

I also didn't realize you needed an os4 machine to cut and paste graphics. Sorry.

I'm allowed to think its funny that someone was given a free os4 machine to work on things and he's just pasting boing balls to existing wallpapers, just for
fun or not. You mods all need to relax and calm down.

You can't. You can be for how you go about expressing it though. Try to bear that in mind, umkay?

To me, the issue isn't that he spent 5 minutes making a wallpaper "for fun" is not an issue. What is a problem, however, is that he didn't accredit the original artist when he posted this, even if it was just a line to give the URL the original image came from. That's simply not cricket.

Fanstastic artwork! Especially wallpapers, they really make your "background", appears magical as ever!
