ColdFusion Wallpaper – Revolution

ColdFusion Wallpaper – Revolution

Posted by on Feb 20, 2010 in ColdFusion | 15 comments

I was doing an image search on Google last night when I came across an image of the old ColdFusion logo from the Allaire days. I started feeling a bit nostalgic and the creative inspiration took over. I have been wanting to spend some time playing around with and investigating Illustrator and Photoshop CS4 so this gave me a good excuse. After a few hours of tinkering, I came up with a new wallpaper and was pretty happy with it so I figured someone else might be interested in using it.
I have created several widescreen versions and an iPhone version as well. Hope you like it.

    Good job dude. Did you ever see the Bolt wallpaper that I did? I was similarly inspired by old school logos:

    Outstanding. Very nicely done.

    Thanks for all the compliments guys, really appreciate it!

    @Steve – I dont have any regular 4:3 monitors so I didnt take time to rework it for those resolutions. If I get some time this week I may go ahead and rework it some and update the post.

    @Andy – Yes I saw yours on Friday when Adam Lehman was using your CF9 v2 on his desktop during a Connect session so I checked out your other ones. Nice Work! Its nice taking time to get away from code and back to my graphics background for a change. I dont spend enough time tinkering and sketching anymore.

    I love your wall paper design. It even looks great on my iphone. Yesterday Scott Stroz posted an item showing how to change the splash screen for CFBuilder. http://www.boyzoid.com/blog/index.cfm/2010/2/22/CF-Dude-Splash-Screen-for-Eclipse

    I took your wallpaper and resized it to 600 × 295 pixels and saved it as bmp. Now I see the Revolution Flag when I start CFBuilder!

    The Revolution is strong!

    Very cool, Russ. Will definitely be setting this as the BG on my MBP.

    Sweet background Russ! I have it on the 2 28″ monitors!

    This is sweet graphic dude! I manage a couple of publications, and would love to use (with credit to you of course) if you’d be OK with that. However, I’d like the ai or eps file if possible. Let me know. One spot might be on the cover of our southeastern U.S. Ezine, the http://www.FuelsFix.com.
    Thanks for considering!

      Sorry about the broken links. Migrated from MangoBlog to WordPress lastnight and didnt have time to get all the media links updated in my posts. The links in this post should be good now.

    None of the links seem to work. I just get a page saying ‘No Results Found’… FF4b10 if it helps…
