Ive been playing the game for some time after the few months i put it down. Now that im back in, i love the whole new design and additions and whatnot. Yet one thing i would love to see on the Media Tab of the main site would be some new wallpapers! If possible, animated wallpapers from some of the levels in the Clockworks. Having the background from "Skies Under Cradle" would be an awesome thing for my desktop wallpaper! Anyone think that would be a neat thing to get?

Animated Wallpapers is asking a bit much, seeing as the cycle is huge enough to take several hundred megabytes (in PNG format)
I captured some images for your convenience, I don't have an amazing resolution on my monitor though so I don't know if they're be any good or not.

I tried getting some with both the Moon Globe and the Sun Globe in the same shot, but that skybox is HUGE. I got lost (was unable to find the starting grid) and the POV was wierd to work with (not to mention the "Globes" are just flat sprites and the sun's glow kept intersecting with it and looking dumb)
these are some really good pics! im kinda curious on how you got these, cuz if you could take some more of other levels, i could probably create something similar to an animated wallpaper! I might not be able to make them look as "good" as these pictures, but i know i got skills with a number of programs. I think i could make a neat first wallpaper of "Skies Under Cradle" if you could get me some more pics of the skybox, or if you could show me how you did all that. Over some time, i could definitely make some good wallpapers!

I can't actually tell you on these forums where in the files you can find the skyboxes, as that would be breaching the ToS. You'll have to find them for yourself.
If you do decide to use Spiral Spy, please do not post screenshots of any unreleased content you find in the files onto these forums.
You sir are a true genius prophet! screw animated wallpapers, a screensaver is a waaaaaay better idea!
Actually, I have thought of screensavers often. Just keep in mind that it probably takes some programing, and this particular kind of programming is OS dependent...I think...
Animating wallpapers is impossible in many settings unless you install a special program, but as far as I know this can get a bit laggy depending on your computer.
For wallpapers, I ask for a HoH one, a Vanaduke one, and a Royal Jelly one.
@Above Actually, I once used an animated gif as a desktop on my old Windows XP without installing any software.
If I'd want wallpapers, I'd ask for the good ol' Pod Town version of Rescue Camp.

Yay, art!
