New Desktop Background

#1 Post by MikalE » Thu Jun 18, 2020 10:01 am

For my new A31p.

I grabbed this from the internet and stuck it in Photoshop for the 'A31p' and removed the watermark.

I like the top one better, but it's your machine. Very nice in either case.

The top one is very grainy and is a brighter blue than the photo would suggest.

I couldn't clean it up any.

I like the darker blue of the second version, but I think I'm going to move 'Thinkpad' up to just below the left lower half of the screen. Left of about where the two lines are in the I of the large IBM logo.

I think this is the best so far.

Is it just an optical illusion, or does A31p actually have a noticeably taller keys compared to T60?
