I am right there with you... I can't seem to find it anywhere, and have requested an upload of just the wallpaper with the darker bar... If I come across it, i'll upload it for all of us...

I want this exact one, but in high definition please.
 
Can someone do me a huge favor and make me a plainish white wallpaper with a pink apple logo in the middle for a lock screen? I've search everywhere and it's hard to find. My wife is looking or one for hers. Thanks guys
 
A few gems that I found here. The last one of the new JJ Abrams Enterprise is my Lock Screen.

That's pretty good can u do the same logo but with like hot pink apple logo and a plain white backround. Sorry for being so picky

Sure. If you don't want pure white I can change it to be just a little darker. The selection I had around the logo is as good as I can get it. Also, the logo looked a bit jagged around the edges with the pure white background so I had to soften the edges just a bit.

Man o man, thank all of you folks for all of these great ideas! I change my screens every couple of days, and really appreciate your creativity.

I can't say that I've read every post on all 100+ pages, but I think I'm adding some fresh ones. I've been indulging some musical obsessions of late, the foremost of which is the year 1971...and yes, I'm a geezer...

Some of these look better as lock screens than home screens, where I've moved app icons around to make room for the pictures. Even the ones that don't exactly work still make me smile, which is the point for me as much as for the art of it.

This turned out to be a lot harder than I thought - aspect ratios and resolution were usually all wrong. You'll definitely see the limits of my P-shop skills, but I hope that you'll find this an adequate return of the favor.

Here's part 1:

1) Jimmy Page, playing the dual-neck guitar he invented to play Stairway to Heaven live, in 1971. (Remarkably, not released as a single.) Currently my lock screen.

2) Led Zep's 4th album, from 1971 of course.

3) George Harrison from Concert for Bangladesh. The album and movie were released in 1972, but the concerts (an afternoon and evening show) were on Aug. 1, 1971. Currently my home screen.

4) The logo from Chicago, At Carnegie Hall. Recorded in April 1971, released October that year. This one has spent a ton of time as my home screen.

5) Fragile was the second of 2 albums that Yes released in 1971. The biggest single from either of those was Roundabout (Fragile), which reached #13 in the US...and didn't chart at all in the UK! What were you people thinking?!?

Stand by for part 2...

1) The Rolling Stones tongue logo, created in 1970, but used for the first time in 1971, on "Brian Jones Presents The Pipes Of Pan At Joujouka." No kidding.

Hey, and The Stones released both Sticky Fingers (singles included Brown Sugar/Bitch and Wild Horses) and Hot Rocks (still one of the all-time great greatest hits collections) in 1971.

2) The Allman Brothers recorded shows at the Fillmore East in April 1971, had the album out that July. The best live album ever?

3) My tweak of the Aqualung album cover. The only single released from that album was Hymn 43 (what?!), which just broke the Top 100 in the US...and didn't chart at all in the UK! (The album did just fine.)

4) Emerson Lake and Palmer released 2 albums in 1971 - Tarkus and Pictures at an Exhibition. This is a poster from that year.

5) Cry of Love was the first of 1971's posthumous Jimi Hendrix releases, and still holds up. Rainbow Bridge followed in the fall, and does not.

And now for some of my favorite screens NOT from 1971:

1) Yellow Submarine is better to look at than to watch, if you know what I mean.

2) And another. I tweaked this from a wallpaper I found, but can't remember where. Apologies to the artist for not giving credit. Kinda lo-res, but looks good at the right size.

3) The lads when they were lads.

4) Dark Side of the Moon

5) Wish You Were Here. I could only find a pretty nasty-looking scan, and am too lazy to scan one of my own. Everything I tried to do to fix it made it look worse...but again, at iPhone 4 display size, it works pretty well.

That's the story with a lot of these. So many of you guys are graphics wizards, I know you could make them much, much better. Like I said, with some obvious exceptions, these were a lot more annoying to create than I thought they would be. But they work well enough for me as is, and some of 'em work really, really well for me.

I have a bunch more, too, but these are my favorites, such as they are.

Again, thanks for all the great stuff you've all contributed.

Thank you metropolitim all of these are so great! I'm wasn't around when they were released but they still play a huge role in my music library. I enjoyed reading background info on the pictures and learned things I didn't know before. I really hope you share more with us. Thank you!
 
here are more wps.

the first image is just an example of how it looks like if you have your home screen empty like me.

Im wondering if any of you photoshop wizards out there can help me out. Im looking to take just the bison head off that logo and center it on a blue background that fades out from the middle or a cool orange and blue background.

Not sure if this is what you were looking for...

Still looking for HAL, if anyone is kind enough to upload it here or point me in the right direction.:)

Scoured the internets but have only found 320x480 ones.:(
 
Could anyone possibly work some magic with either/both of these logos? Wood or maybe carbon background would be awesome.

Try these three. If you don't like them let me know and I'll see what else I can do.
