About 9 years ago I had a thing for designing desktop images (wallpaper). I also had some odd rule about never using anything other than my own personal designs or photos. Odd as it might seem, this rule still stands as it reflects a belief in my own work and it’s also a great test of a design’s longevity.
Another rule I have (it’s actually more of a bad habit) is that I never throw anything away. My virtual mess is just as big as the physical mess that occupies the space under my desk and in my cupboard. So when I came across my old wallpapers this one particularly stood out for me. I’d always imagined it could exist as part of a website design. So I stripped out the car and tiled it on my Twitter page. It worked better than I had expected so I decided to use it here.
On the right is the original wallpaper featuring the General Lee and the fictitious airline of the same name. Enjoy.
