NEW Cody desert island wallpaper
« on: February 23, 2008, 09:45 AM »
somehow i forgot to post this wallpaper at the end of the 'Draw Cody competition'. the picture was specially printed as a full size poster that became part of the first prize that Audrey Maximus won.

now seems as good a time as any to upload the images so here they are.

a couple of other 'halloween' wallpapers are also available. Click here to view the original post (iff you haven't seen it).

If you don't see the correct pixel width and height dimensions for your monitor but you know its aspect ratio then just download the wallpaper with the same aspect ratio - it should then scale to fit properly. If you aren't sure about the aspect ratio of your screen then you will most likely be able to find it here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Vector_Video_Standards2.svg

i think it must be - who else could afford their own DC submarine.

i've added a 1024 x 768 version. (i think it works but maxthon is now blocking me from attempting to download from the link - firefox appears to work perfectly though.)

definitely one of my favorites..

we'll have to customize this for a very very special mug sometime if it's ok with nudone..  and then figure out an event special enough to award it.

Very cool! Some questions arise after gazing at the picture details:

1) Who is the captain of the bathtub?
2) And the captain of the distant ship in the horizon?
3) Is Cody disoriented by the loss of one of his eyes?

sorry, i can't really do that one without editing the original image. if there were several requests for this size then i'd spend a bit of time making the changes.

1) probably the answer lies with the shark nearby.
2) i don't know the answer to that one - it's too far away to see.
3) who knows what Cody is looking at. but, sometimes you just can't see what's right in front of your face.

Wow that's fantastic!

Now I have the Desert Island image on my main monitor and the Beach image on my second monitor. Looks like Cody got to the treasure first, but he lost a leg and his pirate hat fighting off Audrey and the others.

Actually, when I look at them closer, the island in this image is in the background of the Beach image. So it seems Cody knows he's been beat to the island everyone is heading for in this picture, and heads off to another island for the real loot!

Or maybe the Beach image was taken before and it shows that sly Cody tricking everyone by making the other island look like the treasure spot but burying his treasure on another nearby island. So in this new image Cody is making sure nobody is going to where the treasure really lies!
