Attention!
Ordering Information Follows
Due to the size of these pictures I will be sending them through RapidShare. For this reason I will need your e-mail address when you order a product. If you don't want to put it in the forum, send me a PM.
Each image will be shipped at the resolution 1680 x 1050
unless specified otherwise. I have no problem adapting the image to your computer resolution so that you can have a prefect fit with no stretching or distorting, but you need to tell me your resolution when you make the order.
Each image will be shipped in the file format .BMP
unless specified otherwise. I have no problem changing the file format to whatever format is best for you, but you must specify or it will be a BMP.
I am not adversed to making specific changes to an image, for example if you don't like a background on an image, tell me what you would rather have and I will substitute it just for you at no extra cost.
I will also take suggestions/requests as to what wallpaper I should work on next.
Thank you for shopping CDWE and please come again!
