Can you make a wallpaper of the official version, rather than your "fixed" version? (no offence but I do kinda prefer their one)

That's awesome! Any chance you'd be able to do a non-widescreen version?

Sure thing, what resolution do you want? I'll do it first thing in the morning.
EDIT: That reads like I might be being sarcastic, so for clarification I am not. Tell me what resolution you use and I'll knock it up for you

Sorry, no. I did this so I don't have to look at that version. So I'm not spending 30 minutes cutting that head out.
But I'll give you the Photoshop file with my head removed so you can put the original on yourself if you want.

NICE! this is my new desktop background. My old one was a picture of the map to Big Whoop from MI2... I like this better, too bad we can't con LA into using it, then again the games not going to get a box version so I guess it doesn't matter that much :\

Well in case anyone from LucasArts is reading this, they have my full permission to take what I did and use in anyway they want with no restrictions ;-D
After all all I did was combine two official pieces of art from the game. Not like I would have any right to complain even if I wanted to, lol. But I wouldn't want to, if they changed the art to something closer to mine I would be very happy to be rid of that bad Guybrush and have something more suitable, like this.

Ooops realised I had left a few places where you could see the original character placement underneath the new ones on that 1280x1024 version. Fixed and uploaded now. Links are the same.

Could I trouble you for a 1152 x 864? The one I'm using now is nice but when I make it fit the screen it kinda squeezes in the middle of the picture and makes Guybrush's head look really skinny.

I know this may annoy you but could I please have a 1680x1050 version (my monitor is specific).
I have been loving Monkey Island for years (I think I'm the only one in Birmingham, UK lol) but I never really went into the whole forum-thing with it.
Since I think about MI a lot I decided I should join up amongst other fans. I already have the MS Points, looking forward to the day it arrives... :P
Thanks parabolee!

This fixed version is so much better than the original SE one.

Thanks LordTrilobite.
Gimme until Monday for that wallpaper, Irfaan. Last week was crazy at work and I'm going to take a break from Photoshop over the weekend.

The hair doesn't really bother me. The face did, though, as it was the only aspect of the original box that wasn't carried over. Now it's quite pleasing.

BRILLIANT. When the official box art for TOMI comes out, can you do a wallpaper of that too?

If he does that for you I would be quite upset because he wouldn't do it when I asked for the official poster art

Yeah I'll do that, because I want to do it for myself.
And Scapetti as I said I only wouldn't do it for you because I hate that version so I don't want to spend 20 mins editing it to make a wallpaper for you, sorry.
I did offer you the photoshop file of mine to change back yourself though.

I offered it to you with "if you want". I expected you to tell me that you wanted it, and then I would have given it. Let's not pretend I made a promise that I didn't live up to here
Do you want it? (hint: you have to tell me you do and then I'll send it you).
 I just joking buddy, PM me if you want it and I'll send it you on monday, I don't have it now. I would give you the one with the original head but I cut it our before I made it into a wallpaper, so without my head, he's headless.
