Shout out to those who made backgrounds for me!

Last week I made a tweet looking to see if someone could make a background image of all my Video Thumbnails and whoa!!  I got some GREAT responses!  So I decided to showcase them here:

First off we have a couple images from @DawsonFever who made a beautiful pink background one as well!

Next up, @eren_yilmaz made these great images:


Next up, @paralysedbeaver (great name, must have had a bad run-in with a beaver, right? – jk ) with this:


Then @iOhioCountryboy made one:


The @PattyPur1980 also made (a BIG 12MB) one:


@derheusel made two:


And finally, @bofika made 6 collages!


You guys all ROCK for making those!  I REALLY love them all and will use them in some capacity shortly!
Again, thank you so so much!
- Marina

    Hooray for nightowls :shock: :mrgreen:

  11. HotForNumbers says:

    Waw! … They are all great!
    One like eren_yilmaz (1) with all the pics arranged like a camera obturator would be great. But including all of them because there’s missing one. An important one
    :-)

  13. johnnysquarepants says:

  14. James says:

    Marina I also wonder why my background picture has changed and cann’t get it to go back to the way I want it,I think it’s called gravatar?

    • pedanticKarl says:

      Hi thematrix75,
      Your user image is called a gravatar
      when the image comes from the site
      by that name which gravatar.com

      There are some issues with pulling images
      from that site. You can upload an image
      to this site. Your image would then be
      called an avatar.

      Click on your name which will take you
      to your personal channel. Click the profile
      link and look for the link that says update
      avatar. You can upload an image and it wll
      change all of your images.

    Hello marina,these are some cool looking backgrounds :!: :cool: :smile: Thank you all for all the cool backgrounds :!:

    Ahh Yes, There is so much great talent lurking on the Hot For Words comment boards !!! A great idea Marina, to turn H4W, from a ‘One Woman Band’ into an ‘Orchestra’ ! and use some of that great talent in the audience to fill-out the orchestra, and you Marina will be the conductor !!! [so as to keep some semblance of 'order' to these proceedings ! , as you know what happens to a classroom when the teacher is absent !!! How well I remember 8th grade math class !!! :grin: LOL ]

    A decade ago (?) one of the LA County Art Museums (MOCA ?) had a David Hockney Retrospective. It wasn’t until I saw one of his earliest polaroid montages of a swimming pool with lots of people around the pool (from a private collection -as it’s not on the DH webpage when I StartPage.com searched for it just now) that I finally understood why Hockney was so famous. So many of the individual photos were amazing, stunning, trippy, in themselves, and when organized into the whole ensamble it gained in the translation !

    - –

    The mind’s eye can see things so much faster than I can accomplish them in the real world.

    I’m seeing a collage of Marina photos, arranged to make Marina’s face (or more of her) by the aggregate collection !!! , like Hockney might have done !

    - – -
    I’d take on the artistic challenge to do the above idea, but !, I’m still struggling with understanding the 1945 Wheeler-Feynman paper on “Interaction with the Absorber as the Mechanism of Radiation”, which will have some bearing on what I’m doing a month from now.

    Speaking of doing something ‘retarded’ !!! LOL
    (your video on Retarded came out within days of when I downloaded that W-F science paper, after waiting years for it to be available after I couldn’t find it anywhere back then).

    I see there’s a lot going on down in the art class. :cool:

    Anyone want to see some incredible pictures that don’t have our trusty hotforwords in them? I know – there is no such thing as an incredible picture that does not have Marina in it, but these are worth a look-see.

    • HotForNumbers says:

      Great pictures….
      Time ago I suggested Marina to explain why Iceland is called Iceland when Greenland is called Greenland. Probably now would be a good moment.

    @ParalysedBeaver here. You are most welcome. :grin:

  27. iluv2cutfarts says:

    For all of those who didn’t think that Marina would give you a shout out for your efforts, I do hope you are happy. Our trusty hotforwords is always on top of it!

    I see a lot of new changes to the site since early this afternoon.
    Very nice, the Twitoaster avatars are showing up as the originals
    instead of substitute icons. I like the recent members and the online avatars sections.

  29. pedanticKarl says:

    Very nice work. I like those collages.
    Very interesting arrangement of the thumbnails.
