Are you one of those poor saps that just has a blue background on your computer? No color in your life at all, staring a screen all day, occasionally popping your head up from your cube like a prairie dog, looking for something interesting that just never happens? Not that I’m talking about myself… I mean, no. I was talking about, um, my friend. Yeah, that’s it.
I always hate the idea of desktop wallpaper. If you have something great, it’s a bit of a waste because it’s always covered up by a spreadsheet or TPS report, or an ‘alternative’ website. Or you’re trying to impress people that walk by, like having a picture of yourself on top of Kilimanjaro, or your mugshot when you flashed those nuns that one time. Not the picture of the flashing itself, because your boss would get mad. You have that picture in your wallet.
Anyhoo, a couple of years ago I found the solution to my desktop wallpaper problem. A Sharks schedule! I’m always forgetting exactly when the games are, even though I have them in my calendar (which I always forget to look at). Plus, when I do tear my eyes away from the drudgery, I get a little pick-me-up thinking about the next game. Problem is, this sort of thing is generally a little hard to come by- I’ve gotten previous ones from HFBoards, then Chompboard had last season split into two, so I had to change it when the new year rolled around. I dunno about you, but changing my wallpaper twice a year is just too much damn work. Right-click and choose “Set as Desktop Backgrou… zzzz”? See, I’m already taking a nap.
So this year, now that Chompboard is unfortunately no longer operating, and the HFBoards version depended on the generosity of one’s fellow man (which can never be trusted), I decided to commission my own. Friend of the podcast Bryce (who can be contacted at bryce (at) storagebin (dawt) us for all of your graphic design needs) was kind enough to make me one that fits my exacting specifications. And by kind, I mean he kindly took my bribe to make it. But no matter, my loss is your gain! A DOH branded wallpaper of the 2010-2011 San Jose Sharks schedule can now be yours for the low, low price of $0.00. That’s right, FREE.
