If my Gunpei Yokoi picture collage tribute wasn’t already my wallpaper, I’d pick this!

Hey gunpeiyokoifan,

Can you put your Gunpei Yokoi picture collage on this thread? I am curious to see it.

Thanks for the compliments. 🙂

If you ask me, that’s unsuitable as a wallpaper because of all the color contrast. It isn’t in the background, like a good wallpaper should be. Any icons in the foreground would be totally lost in the crowded background.

What you could do is reserve an area to place icons in – like add a little transparent layer there. Or lower the contrast or color amount on the entire pic.

Still, it’s a nice collection of game covers. Nice for regular picture viewing, not wallpaper usage. 😛

Well, it was intended that my wallpaper would be a place to start from. Each person has a different sized monitor which would display the picture differently. One could simply re-size my picture to one’s liking and then center it and have a background color of one’s choosing, over which the icons would go. I, personally, would never place icons over any of these box arts, so my icons go over the background color (black) that surrounds the picture on my computer.

I see. It makes more sense in that context. But then it would be nice if you added some sort of nice border to it. A picture in the middle of a desktop that is just a static color is so Windows 95. 😛

I don’t know… to me, simpler is always better. I like the fact that right now, each item in the picture represents a genuine piece of Virtual Boy history, and I also like the fact that nothing in the picture is anything of my own. But of course, if others would like to add a border or adjust the colors, brightness, etc., that would be up to their own personal tastes. 🙂
