    This is a wallpaper design that I was going to post before the crash but was hesitant to do so because it's relatively simple/clean. I like it though and am currently using it -- it is a photoshopped graphic I did early in the summer blending Yao Ming, Tracy McGrady and Steve Francis.

    PLEASE NOTE: For those familiar with some of the wallpaper posts I've made here before, this link will redirect you to the informationshack site first. I wasn't going to have this redirect there this time, but given the recent crash, the site could use it. The Google Adsense ads on that site 100% support ClutchFans, so it's a way to raise money for hosting these types of images. If the ad links interest you, great ... if not, that's fine too. There is a link on that page to proceed to the wallpaper. Please do not post the full wallpaper graphics elsewhere and link to them in this thread.

    It's available in 1600 wide and 1024 wide. Hope you like it.

    Thanks,
    Clutch

    Somebody didn't read Clutch's "PLEASE NOTE." ;) Just click on the clutchfans link under Ads by Google on that page to get to the wallpaper.

    I tried saving it but it saves it in a .cfm format? And when I click set as desktop background, it gives me unauthorized image error..

    The unauthorized image error was the preview right? Just click "Set Desktop Background" anyways and it should appear as your background. Mined worked out like that.

    When I get some time I'll look in to that to see what could be the problem... but if you drop me an email now, I'll send you a copy of it (let me know 1600 wide or 1024 wide)

    Thanks,
    Clutch

    Doesn't work for me either. Image being used or relocated, something like that.

    Thanks for the offer. I just used the IE tab in Firefox and it worked fine.. I think the error might have something to do with Firefox. So for right now, anyone using Firefox and it doesn't work, try using IE.

    PS: Where's that Rockets.com wallpaper thread? This is what a real wallpaper looks like. Looks awesome Clutch, thanks.

    Looks really good Clutch, defiantly putting this one on my desktop. Though, I do have one thing to point out. Do you see the noticeably bigger arm next to McGrady's arm with the arm band? I think if you got rid of that it would be absolutely perfect. Overall, great work Clutch, I always love seeing anything you do in Photoshop.

    Wow.

    I haven't changed my desktop in a long time now, but I just did.

    Almost forgot how excited I was to have Stevie back!

    last time i was super excited about a season i downloaded and used the yao-t-mac-swift wallpaper and the season subsequently sucked a$$. though this looks beautiful i have a temporary fear of jinxing the team if i use it. so if we win a championship, you guys are welcome. :)

    Nice, wanna make it my desktop but I too get the unauthorized message.

    EDIT: Nevermind, if you just say set it as desktop and ignore the unauthorized message it works.
