I'm back with a new batch I've been having a hard time finding good replays, and I didnt have enough time to make "rigged" replays yet, as it was very well suggested in the last thread. Please do send suggestions, you can even pm me a replay of your own if you think there is some nice moment in there worth snapshoting, or should you make a rigged replay for this sole purpose;) I've also cut a few of them to wallpaper size, in the sizes most requested (1680x1050, 1280x1024, 1900x1200), though I still dont have any photoshop skills, so don't have high expectations
(links to previous pictures can be found in my first and second blogposts, please check them out if you're new to this) Once again, I'm using thumbnails, click on them for full resolution.
- Stork (teal) vs Bisu (red), and the head of Python:
A smaller battle of theirs later in the same game:
- A group of ret's MnM leaving the ruins of a zerg base:
A small blood bath from the same game:
+ Show Spoiler [wallpaper 1900x1200] +I had an idea to turn this into a wallpaper, I dont really like the outcome, but maybe you do:
- Draco vs Mondragon (close to) maxed out battle on BlueStorm:
+ Show Spoiler [wallpaper 1900x1200] + + Show Spoiler [wallpaper 1680x1050] + + Show Spoiler [wallpaper 1280x1024] + A smaller battle from later on, with maelstrom and probes
- Some PvP on Katrina, a battle unfolding around a building nexus:
Later this game turned into an amazing PvP, with arbiters stasising each other and maelstromed zealots
- Finally, two variations of a 1680x1050 (the most requested size) wallpaper made from 3 different previous shots:
Now let's hope I got all the UBB-tags right and this will all look just as intended
As usual, ratings and comments are much appreciated. No poll this time, sorry folks

This is really sweet. I think the wallpapers will be even better once you've done a lot more of these and have enough material to make a wallpaper with Starcraft everywhere. As it is, the expanse of black is kind of uninspiring.
Anyways, awesome work.

A common unit crossing over in between each of the bars would be nice 
(Dunno if you understand what I am saying...)

The PvP ones are pretty epic. Are the Bisu vs Stork ones from the IEF Finals?
|
yea so nice.
thanks for the 1920x1200 !!!!! i really appreciate this!
Now i just need a screen with some sick storm/maelstorm/massarch action vs zerg where the whole screen is full of units, but i guess that isn't possible because no battle in bw can be that huge that it fills 1920x1200. Just because the players couldnt control armies which are way out of their bw window^^

I'm using the 2nd to last wallpaper posted. Awesome work.

if only we could play sc like this ;_;

I love these pictures. I make wallpapers from them. Keep up the awesome.

I didn't find the wallpapers too great personally, but the high res pictures were really nice. I kind of want to see a maxed out TvZ and PvT if you can manage it in the future.

Never noticed why Python had this name... O_o
|
|
I dunno if it was intentional, but the PvP, PvT, PvZ aspect of the wallpaper is awesome. ^^

here is a screenshot i made
it's a TvZ between ret and child:
|
Tx for the 1900 * 1200, I have it as my background now. :D

I'll try to answer some questions without double posting:

I have no idea:D I went through so many replays for these I can't remember where were they from. If you really insist I may look up and re-host the replay somewhere, but thats the best I can do I remember Bisu won that game.

About the wallpapers in general: yes, I know that adding black and calling them wallpapers is kinda lame, but as I've said I dont have photoshop skills. The high-res shots are great wallpaper material imho, these silly tries of mine are rather for those who dont have the intention/skill/time to turn them into decent wallpapers on their own. Unike niteReloaded! I really love that version, may I include that in the OP?
cafaro, that shot might just be taken just before my "blood bath" one in this batch
And thanks Durak for the suggestion, finally one with an actual replay, I will definitely check it out! Keep the suggestions coming!

I was just gonna say that. Something right in the middle that says something blunt.
