Hathaway Browne Posted January 10, 2012 Share Posted January 10, 2012 These are awesome. Timeline Cover Pictures are bound to become the next "must" along with wallpapers for computers and the various mobile devices.EDIT: Just did a search, looks like someone's very quick to catch the wave of the trend.http://coverjunction.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MDC Posted January 10, 2012 Share Posted January 10, 2012 I've got the Michael Jordan Wings poster, looks pretty cool above my face. I had a lot of trouble with it though. The image wouldnt center, and the 'drag to reposition' command just straight-up wouldnt work. But alas, I'm settled in. ---Owner of the NHA's Philadelphia Quakers, the UBA's Chicago Skyliners, and the CFA's Portland Beavers (2010 CFA2 Champions)--- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wILL-INI Posted January 10, 2012 Share Posted January 10, 2012 I mean it can only go 72 dpi.Good to know.Mine's blurry but if you put a quick sharpen on it before all is said and done it helps a little, or a high pass layer. It won't make it perfect but it cleans it up a little.Forgive my ignorance, but what are these terms? I only have Inkscape and Gimp so maybe I'm just not familiar with the AI or Photoshop lingo.They are photoshop functions sorry. Depending on what your using also most photo programs have a sharpen option that can help. "Classic" does not mean it gets a free pass for being bad design.Portfolio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So how does using a "sharpen" tool prior to uploading to Facebook help at all? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wILL-INI Posted January 11, 2012 Share Posted January 11, 2012 Congrats on the win last night wILL. Paul was fun to watch. Especially since I hate Ohio State.Thank you! Paul was on another level last night, and I'm so happy it happened against OSU...On topic, I also think brightness comes into effect, I've noticed with mine the orange darkens a little when I upload, so now before I save I bump the brightness of the whole file up about 15% and that helps it some...

JPDesign Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 I think 851x314 is the official dimension of the timeline photo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-kj Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 I've gone relatively simple with mine: I do like that schedule idea; once they release the 2012 schedule, I might well have to add that.

The Fixer Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 I had this as my prof pic for a little bit and was going to make a matching cover photo but the response on the prof pic wasn't good enough to inspire me... edit: my hair, angry expression, and nose bother me a bit on this though...may have to do another...
