The long-awaited next installment of my Portal Wallpaper series. Sorry to have kept you guys waiting so long, but I've had a lot of stuff happening lately and it completely slipped my mind.
Anyway, this wallpaper obviously features the turrets from the game. Made, as usual, in Garry's Mod for Half-Life 2. I had to import NPCs for the turrets to get it to open and shoot, which was annoying because it was a bitch to get a good screenshot. The background quotes were taken from Wikiquote, because I honestly do not know how I could possibly get all the different lines from the game itself.
Anyway, I hope you enjoy it, I'll be working on the final one now, featuring the Weighted Companion Cube.
Could you please make a widescreen (ie 1680 x1050 or similar ratio) wallpaper version of this? My monitor's at 1680x1050, and this wallpaper, while awesome, just doesn't look right on it.
I absolutely love the Portal turrets, and having all their lines there in the wallpaper is an awesome idea. (Hell I love the turrets over the Cube. They talk! And are in more than one level...)
You missed one line though: "Owowowowow" when they fall over and start shooting, or end up in acid.
Love it! Unfortunately the res is wrong for my laptop, so this is the only one I can have on stretch without it looking retarded. And I really like the touch with all the text in the background. :thumb79328066:

This newsletter was "born" back in March 2007, from a conversation between ~Lareth and =FrozenStarRo, who with the help of their friends *Iardacil and *Sylwiaa , wanted to make something to promote known and unknown photomanipulators alike here on DeviantArt. As of September 2009 =ImaginaryRosse joined the project and will be helping us out with the weekly choices. While things have changed over time, the essence of the newsletter is still the same.

Years are like fractals. The more you've seen of them, the more you appreciate the details of each one, rather than how many you've seen.
And I really like the touch with all the text in the background.

"No! Cause I'm evil!"
"You're a bigger fool than I thought."
"Oh yeah! Well you're...naked!"
