Cool 4Runner Wallpaper now Online...

The 4Runner Topsites website has just broke through the 15,000 visitor mark today, 5,000 of which came in just the last 3months. In celebration of the event I have made available for your downloading pleasure a 4Runner Wallpaper.

It is sized at 1024x768 which is a great fit for 17" monitors. It is in JPG format to conserve bandwidth. After clicking on the link you can right click the pic and choose "set as wallpaper" or "save picture as...". If you choose "save picture as..." change the file type to .bmp and save it to your windows directory. Then use ControlPanel|Display|Background to change you wallpaper.

The wallpaper features all your favorite Topsite members. To be fair it is set-up in member number order.

Try it out if you have a chance, It is on the Topsites page.

PS: if you are not yet a member consider joining. You must have a personal 4Runner Website with pics and info, and be willing to display an 88x31 button to track your stats. No photohosting accounts allowed.

Excellent Jalaber.
Just made it my wallpaper.

Funny thing is the link in the URL bar at the top of IE said it was a JPG.
When I right clicked on it to save it, it said it was a BMP.
Strange.

Sure enough, it saved it as a BMP on my PC.
Good work on the picture, it looks great.

Butnut, click on the link and when the pic comes up in your browser, right click and save it somewhere on your hard drive as a jpg. Then go into your Appearance manager in the Control Panels. Select "select picture" and navigate your hard drive to the location of where you saved the pic.

Real nice dude! I like alot. I want to be a member, but I don't have a digital photo, so I can't really do that! I will just have to get one someday and then I can make my own site and then be on the top sites page...oh I can't wait! Great job on the wall paper as well. :fireman:

Hey Jalaber,

Although I read the posts on the 4Runner forums all the time, it's been about a year since I made my last post - which was arount the time of the first EC4RJ. Well, I'm back!!!

The wallpaper is great!!!

Thanks for the comps guys.

For those of you who have many icons on your desktop and find it distracting with the wallpaper, I suggest you download the following freeware program that I use.

http://www.ivory.org/panorama.html

It is only 500kb and you can use it to temporarily hide all desktop icons. There is a hotkey (CTRL+I) to hide/display them as needed. The free program has other nice features as well such as randomizing jpegs as you wallpaper at intervals you specify.

Try it out.
