The players pictured are swappable with any other Met players. I'll update it as the season plays out.Alotta work went into this one. Here's some source material. Whoever took that pic of Citifield I thank you.Lets enjoy the season together again and LETS =#40BF00]GO =#4040BF]METS!!!
Zvon Old-Timey Member Posted April 9, 2013 Author Posted April 9, 2013 I only figured to be doing this once a month, but Bucks opening performance requires immediate emergency surgery. Trav, if Buck hits 35+ HRs this season, see you in September. Working on a home uniform version of Wright to slip in there. Byrd is waiting on the sidelines but who do I pull for him? Step it up Duda. Full sized versions here, plus versions with alt backrounds (view slideshow):https://picasaweb.google.com/102387599896928448637/WALLPAPERS#slideshow/5864931273729232210

Zvon Old-Timey Member Posted May 1, 2013 Author Posted May 1, 2013 My plan is to update this WP once a month. This is my version of a Mets report card. Players have to make the cut to be there. Players doing good will get bigger. Bad: smaller. Being removed is a bad, bad thing (with the exception of Travis. He was just holding a spot for Buck). Being added is a good thing. I'd like to add Tejeda. He will have to be more consistant. Added a new 2013 David Wright/Capt America wallpaper. I hope to add a Harvey one before seasons end.Note: I hope these are available at full size if you grab em from Picasa. I'm not sure. I tried myself and got a much smaller image than the original work. That's not good and I'll have to look into it._________________________________METS2013WPzV3.2 Update notes>Wright jumps into a home uniform. Thanks go to Xavier Weatherford for the base image (reworked-it was the dreaded black uni).>Byrd makes the cut for really no other reason than he's played in most of the games. Displaces Parnell.>Valdespin wants in. Has had some big hits. For now though, he remains in a holding pattern above the stadium.>Bucks position holds.>Murphy gets a little bigger and steps on the skyline.>"Citi" removed from logo.>"Mets" reworked>Duda stays the same size. I hoped he would be big to start, and he's doing good.Tilted his upper body.>Ike gets smaller and and swaps places with Harvey. Players don't want to be getting smaller.>Harvey gets bigger and brighter and lets his hair grow out. Players should want to get bigger.>Niese stays the same.>Parnell slips back in next to Niese. He's our closer. I need a bigger sample size before I mess with him. >Collins is trying to emerge from the dugout. Hold on there sparky. If we are .500 or better at the break I'll let you out. You've got alot of work to do.DWRIGHT2013WPzV1>New 2013David Wright wallpaper added__________________________________^This looks like patch notes for a vid game^ __________________________________https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-GBpe5l-mMRE/UYGLnMf9ECI/AAAAAAAAA2c/qUAydwpllEg/s1024/METS2013wallpaperZv3.2.jpghttps://picasaweb.google.com/102387599896928448637/WALLPAPERS#5873128894554247202https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-BMNRkazZsbQ/UYGLm3lU0iI/AAAAAAAAA2Y/1fzZvmfPyrw/s1024/DWwp2013-0014.jpghttps://picasaweb.google.com/102387599896928448637/WALLPAPERS#5873128888939631138
Zvon Old-Timey Member Posted May 3, 2013 Author Posted May 3, 2013 Thank you Sharon Changed the Wright one a bit. That pic at the bottom, him with the cigar, is my all time favorite pic of David. There were other similar ones taken at the time, but that one, with that mischievous smile, is my fav. I did not like Wrights foot blocking that so I switched the two action images. https://picasaweb.google.com/lh/photo/DaUvnb4gpgEYDmHwQ4m3hdMTjNZETYmyPJy0liipFm0?feat=directlink
Zvon Old-Timey Member Posted June 1, 2013 Author Posted June 1, 2013 June update: Re-did the whole logo. Gave it some feel. Other than that and Jordany getting a little closer there are no changes. I don't expect to have any reason to update this until new players (thats you Wheeler and d'Arnaud!) do something worthy of recognition. I'd like to take that ASG logo out and put a pennant there in the middle at the end of the season. If Terry can get em up above .500 I'll stick him there.https://picasaweb.google.com/102387599896928448637/WALLPAPERS#5884672479551744482
Zvon Old-Timey Member Posted June 19, 2013 Author Posted June 19, 2013 I got a little excited about Wheelers arrival. So he gets his own wallpaper for dealing through all that hype.https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-0Y1aDAHWpOw/UcI0yIcK-LI/AAAAAAAABvU/mAvmnxoPLDI/s800/Zack001-midsize.jpg
dinosaur jesus Old-Timey Member Posted June 19, 2013 Posted June 19, 2013 Have you done the one with Eric Young yet?
Zvon Old-Timey Member Posted June 19, 2013 Author Posted June 19, 2013 I'll produce a Young when he produces.
Zvon Old-Timey Member Posted July 1, 2013 Author Posted July 1, 2013 This little exercise of reflecting the current team is more interesting than I expected. Bye Ike. Bye Duda. Bye Buck. Bye Valdespin. Your all cut.Bye Parnell. Bye Niese. Hit the bench.I know its early to be adding Wheeler but we need him to be that big. And I already had him done from the other wallpaper.Wright, Murphy and Harvey stay. Wheeler and a little Byrd added. I don't expect Byrd to be here long. Young does makes the cut.https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-3SOpUSVNa7w/UaqKwH7tEKI/AAAAAAAABoU/_5w7ixWd_Q4/s1152/METS2013wallpaperZv41.jpg
Zvon Old-Timey Member Posted July 18, 2013 Author Posted July 18, 2013 Goodbye ASG logo. We served you well. Hello Hefner, Gee, Hawkins, Satin, Quintanilla. Young gets center stage to spark up the second half. If Byrds gonna stay he deserves more space. They all get a blue/orange glow that denotes they are now Supermets.https://picasaweb.google.com/102387599896928448637/WALLPAPERS#5902163678784894194
Zvon Old-Timey Member Posted August 9, 2013 Author Posted August 9, 2013 I never thought I'd be removing Wright from my wallpaper(*sob). Okay, I'm over it. He'll be back next month.Lagares gets his spot and I'm calling on him to pick up the slack. He's big. Q makes way for Wilma. Wheeler gets smaller and bumps Parnell. Hawkins will represent the pen. Mejia gets a big spot because I like what I'm seeing. He could be big.Mets 2013 Wallpaper for August.https://picasaweb.google.com/102387599896928448637/WALLPAPERS#5910235744537367938
