Baseball is winding down. The Tigers have a pulse now, but it’s too little, too late. The Lugnuts are out of the Midwest League playoff picture but the Loons have to be the favorites to win the league.

The Red Wings start up their pre-season schedule late this month with one game on TV.

If you haven’t seen it yet, there are also schedule wallpapers available for Michigan and Michigan State football. I’ll have Lions schedule wallpapers available before the start of the regular season.

Enjoy!

We’re back to the normal design. Maybe it’ll help the Tigers play the way they did before last month.

The Lugnuts face the Angry Apples With Questionable Mental Health many times this month; the Loons do the same with the Angry Baseball-Eating Waves.

I should have a Lions season schedule wallpaper out pretty soon. I’m even thinking about doing the same with Michigan and Michigan State (but without the times and TV because of the way the scheduling works in the NCAA).

It’s retro month! All wallpapers use a classic computer font and space background, the Tigers and Lugnuts have retro team logos and the opponent logos on the Tigers wallpaper are from the 80s and early 90s (all logos are from this time period with the exception of Tampa Bay, who did not exist until 1998). Since I couldn’t really use retro opponent logos on the Lugnuts and Loons wallpapers, I used cap logos to change it up.

A few notes on the MLB logos used:

• Cleveland – I really didn’t have a retro logo to use from this time period, so I made up a wordmark based on their 1989 to 1993 uniforms.
• Minnesota – That really is a retro logo, if only by a year.
• Boston – Same case as Minnesota. This logo was last used in 2008.

Sorry about the lateness. I slacked off too much before the holiday weekend and paid for it.

Once again, all games are in high definition for the Tigers, so that’s why you won’t see that little (HD) logo on there at all.

No fancy write-up here; I’m too tired.

All games are in high definition for the Tigers, so that’s why you won’t see that little (HD) logo on there at all.

I’ll update the Tigers wallpaper if needed because of Red Wings playoffs.

UPDATE: Added the Ernie Harwell memorial patch to the Tigers wallpapers. RIP Ernie.

It’s April in the D! *groans*

The Tigers open 2010 with Dontrelle at the end of the rotation. Yikes. Good thing we’re only weeks away from the Stanley Cup Playoffs with the Red Wings on a very hot streak. As for the Pistons? Let’s hope the lottery is kind to them. Minor League Baseball is also underway this month, so get on out and enjoy inexpensive baseball if you have some in your area.

I’ll probably update the Tigers wallpapers if/when TV changes happen because of Red Wings playoff games. Don’t look for a Red Wings playoffs wallpaper.

A new feature this month: you will now get your wallpapers at midnight on the first of every month.

UPDATE: Tigers wallpaper updated (Friday the 16th’s game moved to FSD+ because of Red Wings playoffs).
UPDATE: Tigers wallpaper updated (Sunday the 18th’s game moved to 4:10 PM [or it might have been a mistake on my part, I'm not sure which]).
UPDATE: Tigers wallpaper updated (Friday the 23rd’s game moved to FSD+ (HD) because of Red Wings playoffs).

Holy carp, that’s a lot of wallpapers. I replaced the 1280 x 720 with 1366 x 768. If you were using 1280 x 720, just use 1280 x 800 and either “center” or “shrink” it.

Sorry about the delay in getting the wallpapers and DSC to you guys. My monitor malfunctioned a few days ago but I was able to get a replacement last night for free.

Each individual wallpaper now has a unique file name, which may help out those who like to use multiple ones on a rotating basis (or just switch them up every once in a while).

A few weeks ago I upgraded my display to an LG W2361V-PF, which required me to do some reformatting of the wallpapers as I now run at a 1920 x 1080 resolution. While doing so, I wrote a script that uses ImageMagick to automatically crop and resize the different wallpaper sizes. The real benefit for you guys is that I wrote the script to support the TWELVE most common resolutions I can find. This script makes my life a lot easier as I don’t have to manually crop and resize the wallpapers. If I still don’t have your display resolution, I’m sorry. I can’t support every resolution out there but I’m doing the best I can.

Sorry about the delay getting these wallpapers done; my personal life has kept me quite busy recently. The Tigers’ wallpapers feature retro logos along with an updated (and hopefully final) version of the George Kell/Mark “The Bird” Fidrych memorial patch.

On the Tigers wallpapers there’s a new memorial patch for George Kell and Mark “The Bird” Fidrych. I am a bit ticked that the Tigers haven’t even memoralized their Hall of Fame third baseman and broadcaster with even a simple black armband.

This is the busiest month of the year with FIVE wallpapers. I will not be adding any playoff series to the Red Wings and Pistons wallpapers, but I will make any updates to the Tigers if games are bumped to Fox Sports Detroit Plus. Included on the Pistons wallpaper is a tribute to William Davidson and on the Tigers wallpaper there is a tribute to George Kell. RIP.
