2011 Calendars and Wallpaper

I love your Pirate calender!! Makes me wish I was writing a novel that fit with that theme... you wouldn't happen to making a sci-fi one, would you? ;) Great job!

Always loved that Mansion one. It does make me want to do a story one day for it.

I love the Mansion one as well, where did you get the picture for it? It would work well on my novel cover.

Thank you! I've taken the pirate one; it's lovely. It makes me glad that I'm writing a pirate story this year.

I am also completely in love with the pirate one. I wish I had seen it last year, might have helped inspire me to keep writing that novel idea xD

Oh my that mansion one is gonna be absolutely perfect for my novel! Thank you!

I use these every year. Really, I love them. Thank you for sharing.

Downloaded the Pirate one; great work!!! Thanks for sharing!

Yes! Thanks for the pirate calendar! It matches the theme of some of my writing music, Abney Park.

I put the pirate one on the machine at work, and the Mansion here at home, but I may swap.. The numbers on that one are a bit of challenge for these old eyes, but I'll manage. Thanks!

I remember these! They're beautiful. Thank you so much for sharing!

Your mansion one was my desktop for last years Nano, and helped me set the mood for my story and make 250k words. Just wanted to thank you for it!

Awesome stuff!
The treasure map is my fav but the castle is a close second. Thanks for making those public for us. :)

Thanks! I used your calendars last year too. I need all the inspiration I can get. Love all you talented NaNo Artisans! :)

snagged the mansion one, tis gorgeous!!

Have you been doing this for several years? I swear I remember the river one because I used it years ago (like, 5 years ago or something) :o. Anyway, they look great! The only real downside is the 'low' resolution, but I'll survive somehow :)

Like others, I use these every year. Thanks so much! :)

Wow, I love all of yours! I took the pirate one, because I think it's the best, but the others are really good, too. It gives me a good little visual incentive :D

Thank you for the calendars!!

Stealing the mansion one. It's perfect for what I want to do.

I love the tree one! I'm writing more words though, so can't use it :(
Sad

I keep getting the Deviant Art error message. :-(

Pretty sure I use yours every year. They're that great. Thanks again!

They are very very beautiful and I have chosen the one with the seashore.

Thanks shattered! I use the same pirate one since 2009. :) Just love it

Those are fantastic! Thank you. I snagged the shores one. Gorgeous. :D

Thank you so much! I am going to download all of them, but I'm currently using the river as my desktop wallpaper. It's a nice fit with my website and blogpage. www.elizabethhauser.us or elizabeth@elizabeth.wordpress.com

This made me laugh so much! :)

Thank you so much! This is perfect!

Love it. Probably gonna use it for most of november <3

A calendar to make me laugh when things start getting rough! (No bad pun on "rough draft" intended.) ;)

I didn't! o,O I suppose the forum moderator fixed it for me. Thank you moderator!]

Eeeee, and I adore your little tips and inspirations! Such a good idea. I think I may actually follow your advice! :)

Ah, I love it and have already had it as my wallpaper for a week ♥

Thanks so much! I'm definitely using this.

I am in love with your calendar!

As for the 'edit' button, it is not implemented yet so we have to wait a little bit :) I am as eager to edit all my posts with wrong links than you are!

So amazing, I love the colors and the tips, and... everything!
And you know, Nov. 26th's tip to turn someone into a werewolf makes me wonder if I can wait that long >.>

I only wish I could print in color...

I love your calendar, but the resolution doesn't work for me. Half the writing disappears. :( I know what you said on DeviantArt, but I haven't seen any calendars I like this much. I don't suppose you'd consider making one in 1366x768? :D

Took this one. Thank you so much! It's perfect. I love the little captions for the days. XD

Oh yes! Mine! Thank you. :)))

Aah! This is fantabulous! Definitely using this, and commented/faved on dA.

Ohh, I love your one!
Ii'd totally use it IF I were doing regular word counts. Although I'm still going to favourite it and stare at the pretty.

Aaahhhh, I love that one!! :D All the little messages you put are so fun and applicable! *steals it gratefully*

This is beautiful!

This is perfection O_o. Thank you so much for sharing this with us!

Aaaa this one's so nice! Thanks for sharing! I've just made it into my wallpaper :)

Ah, I love this! The little bits of inspiration mixed with wit are just what I'll be needing as a first time Nanoer. Thank you for sharing this!

Oh so much swiping! It's stunning, thanks for sharing!

Aww, wow! I really appreciate that! I'm so glad you enjoy them! Good luck in November! C:

Thank you so much! <3

Thanks guys! I'm so glad you enjoy it. Flatlines, that's really cool! It's great to see that you're really making it work for you.

Sarchasm, always great to know the less popular wordcount vesions are finding homes, too! :D

Thanks everyone! What a lucky little desktop calendar, inhabiting so many wonderful homes and desktops this year.

Yesssss, this made my day. I still have your 2010 one set as the desktop background on my other computer. I kept thinking I should change it but it's so pretty....

And now I have a new one!

Thanks!

Oooo! This is nice! Thank you!

Love it! *Snatches*
Next year, I might try 75k :D

Hey, I love your wallpaper! Thanks for putting it up!

Came for the calender, staying to look around your portfolio! You're so talented, definitely have to keep you in mind for future designs, if you're open! ^.^

I loved using yours last year! Would you mind creating a 1280 x 800 version? Thanks!

150K? What kind of psycho decides to write 150,000 words in one month? I think I'm going to have an aneurysm at 50K.

(Note to self: Do research on aneurysms; can they be induced to produce the perfect murder?)

Hi!

We will have the edit button only later this month but we will have it! Do not despair! I may use the red version :)

I love these ones! I snagged the purple one. XD

LOVE! Especially the light blue one!

One question: Are you willing to make word count edits? I'm aiming for 60k this year, but I really want to use this wallpaper.

The brown one is now my likely wallpaper for the month! I like it - simple, so no distractions, but encouraging in the sense that, y'know, I can see how many words I should be at without doing that awful math thing.

Your calendars are gorgeous. Thank you for sharing them. I'm starting off with the teal one, but it is very nice to have so many options!

This is lovely! Simple and lots of margin space so my desktop icons don't cover up the text. I took the purple one. But hey, there's nine flavors so maybe i'll mix it up throughout november!

Downloaded the teal one a few days ago and forgot to thank you. I love it!

Love these! I snagged them all and put them on the wallpaper slideshow, thank you. <3

I love it. I'm using the blue version.

All the pretty designs the others have are lovely, but extremely hard for bad eyes like mine to see. I love the simplicity of yours. I've snagged the purple version. Thank you!

I like that the Chris Baty quote is on your updated version of last year's calendar, but your new artwork is hilarious!

Thanks. I'll see what else I can come up with... ;)

Thanks. I actually prefer darker desktops... sometimes I have my lamps in my room off, and it helps prevent blindness lol.

Thanks! These were actually from last year. I posted 2 every Monday in October of 2010, but I've been a little too busy to be so ambitious this year. :) Here's the links for the rest of last year's:

If I do a new one, I'll post a link to it!

I like NaNoVintage, NanoInk, NaNoQuest and The Seuss. Thanks!

Ooh, using the colours one. It's the only one I've found so far in my screen resolution & it's super snazzy.
Your ipod wallpapers make me wish I had one!

LOL I remember these as well, they were BRILLIANT. Especially the first one, I love it ^^

I LOVED the air travel one! I've got the open up a vein one this year.

Loving the NaNo Air one.

(very late reply) Loving the first one, thanks for sharing.

Those are all really clever and beautiful. Saving a bunch, thanks !

You're welcome!

i resized / edited the image for some different resolutions with what little photoediting skill i had; this one is in 1280 x 800 and this one is in 1280 x 1024. hopefully one of these happens to fit your screen!

this is lovely!

Thanks, glad you like it :)

You're most welcome :)
