Need help with Image and Wallpaper


This is the Strat I will gettting in the near future. It is a American Deluxe Strat Quilted Maple in Amber. I dig this guitar.

What I need you image experts to do is blow it up and make a good wallpaper for me. I run my Desktop at 1400x1050 on a 20 LCD screen. It is a damn pretty geetar ain't it.

Thanks ahead of time.

Well, you need to start with a good quality picture of that guitar, you can't start with something that small and expect it to look good blown up, I put it in photoshop and doubled it and it looked like crap, and for the resolution you want it would have to be at least 3x the original size.

Re: Need help with Image and Wallpaper


Even after touching it up with filters, that image remained distorted when I blew it up. Funny thing is I can't find a single high res pic of the Amber finish, only the Tobacco Sunburst finish is available -

Btw, you sure your screen res is 1440x1050 and not 1680x1050?

I asked because when the screen width is 1440, height is normally 900 not 1050.

Ah, 1400 not 1440... but you're right, that's a standard 4:3 display... I thought nobody used them anymore

Yeah, I ran filters too and it made it look even worse, and I was wondering about that resolution as well.
