A very non-serious post. I scrounged up from different sources these three desktop backgrounds that feature the intro screen for Xenoblade Chronicles, that shows the different times of day. I had to do some Photoshop work on them to get the positioning, proportions, files size, and colors mostly coordinated between pictures. I think they’re aesthetically pleasing if you like sci-fi yet have no concern for the game itself, or video games in general, and it fits nicely into my latest obsession with clouds.
You can download the zip file of all three right here, or just “right-click > save as” on the images below.
Useless personal details: I have all three in random rotation on my Windows 7 machine at work, on my three monitors, though it fits ideally on my main monitor, a nice Dell P2414H in landscape mode, on the “center” picture position. I have the same monitor but in portrait orientation (easier to see lengthy vertical code), and the photos fit with a lot of white space at the top and bottom. I also use my laptop monitor and the positioning cuts off the top and bottom, almost like it’s zoomed in. All three are at the highest resolution: the Dells are at 1920 x 1080 and 1080 x 1920, while the laptop is at 1366 x 768. My main concern was not having the pictures stretched out of proportion on any of the monitors, a state of affairs that would kick my mild OCD into overdrive.
