Ok pick up your Photoshop and show us your artwork.

Rules:
1. The ApexDC++ drop logo must be in it
2. ApexDC++ text must be in it.
3. Pick one of the following size´s
   -1680x1050 (widescreen)
   -1600x1200 (Normal)
(Bigger is better so it can be scaled down)

You have two weeks after that we will have a poll on witch is the best... have fun  :)

Have had a go at making something over the last week, surprisingly difficult to do much with the logo, it having a hole in the middle is annoying.

Here's one wallpaper though:

It's is 1600x1200, but center it on lower/different resolutions rather than stretching it.

Heh, I don't think it looks that good in other colours, but there's a blue anyway:

If it's the wrong shade or whatever then give me some directions on what to change.

Greg, that blue one was great, although just a tad lighter blue color on the background of it wouldn't hurt... Get some contrast to it, but not too much...

Heh alright then, want PSD for blue or normal? Had to make more changes than I expected to make it blue, so quite different PSDs.

Nice edit, looks good, would just need to change the text a bit to match the rest.
