Okay, so this month’s wallpaper has a bit more of a story. Or, at least, it’s meant to imply that it has more of a story.
I wanted to do something spacey/sci-fi because it’s something we haven’t really done. I started thinking about what a captain’s journal might look like if it wasn’t explicitly limited to just handwritten text. What if it was sort of like a cross between a journal and an iPad (or, as Steven Fry noted, the closest thing, thus far, to a real, live Hitchiker’s Guide to the Galaxy). What I had in mind was something that was both futuristic and retro, and with that in mind, I designed Captain’s Log…
This is the first time, also, that we’ve included a wallpaper for an iPad/tablet (of course, it was never really an issue before since they previously didn’t exist). Time will tell if this becomes a regular inclusion but, given the booklike nature of the design, we included two different iPad wallpapers and two different iPhone wallpapers (as well as calendar and non-calendar versions of each). Captain’s Log is available in the following resolutions:
Widescreen
1920×1200
