Spring training is here! On the Tigers wallpaper, I added all of the out-of-town TV and radio. All of the radio stations listed stream their signal on their sites, but I don’t know if MLB will be jerky butts and black them out. Check the DSC post for quick links to the streams.
HT to my friend Mike for his huge help in sleuthing the out-of-town TV and radio!
UPDATE: The Tigers’ game versus the Washington Nationals on March 9th will now be televised live at 1:00 PM on MLB Network (as well as MASN).
Enjoy!
OK, now we’re back to your regularly-styled wallpapers. The Red Wings’ one is kinda light, due to the NHL break for the 2010 Olympics. I will be posting a special schedule wallpaper that has all of the men’s hockey games for Vancouver 2010 on it very soon. Stay tuned!
Enjoy!
Happy New Year!
It’s time for the biannual “Retro Month”. I have selected logos from the past of the teams that the Red Wings and Pistons will be playing this month. I have limited the logo selection to current locations of teams, which is why you won’t see a Hartford Whalers logo when the Red Wings play Carolina. After what happened in Hartford, there’s no way I could do that. As for teams that don’t have any real retro logos (like the Minnesota Wild) I chose alternate logos.
Huge thanks to Donovan Moore of the Society for Sports Uniform Research for providing the most accurate colors for all of the logos in my wallpapers and to the people at Chris Creamer’s Sports Logos Page for providing many high quality logos to use.
As far as the whole Comcast/Versus/DirecTV squabble, I’ve decided to go back to just one set of wallpapers for the Red Wings. I’ll just be taking a minor jab at what Versus used to be called to remind everyone of their roots. ^_^
Enjoy!
Hard to believe this year (and decade) are almost over with. Let’s go out in style!
About the Red Wings wallpapers: I am still pissed at Comcast’s extortion of Versus to DirecTV, so that’s why I make that awesome “Komkast” logo. You can read more about the squabble here. If you don’t want the awesome “Komkast” logo on your Red Wings wallpaper, download the alternate version. I will be making two versions of the Red Wings wallpapers every month until this situation is resolved.
Enjoy!
I figured I’d get these up while I wait for a Lions stream to become available. The NFL and Roger Goodell can go eat sushi from the Detroit River.

Hey gang, sorry about the lateness. The last few days all of my free time was locked into another project of mine.

UPDATE: The Pistons wallpapers have been updated with correct memorial patches for Chuck Daly and William Davidson.

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.
Enjoy!
Just in time for the Tigers first Spring Training game, here are March’s wallpapers. With the help of a good friend, I have added out-of-town radio and TV stations for games that locals won’t be carrying. All of these radio and TV games should be blackout free since they’re all exhibition games.

Yet more design changes! I finally found a new font that I really like after much searching. A new background design is in the works and it will be ready for next month. I’ll have March’s wallpapers before the Tigers start playing Spring Training games as I’ll be including the February part of their schedule on the March wallpaper (a whopping 4 games).
I did the best with all of that empty space. February is hard like that.

In honor of the Winter Classic, I have made retro-styled wallpapers for the Pistons and Red Wings for January. You will find a classic logos and an old school font. I even used retro TV network logos (where possible) I really went all-out on these! Retro month seems to be the most popular of all of my designs.
As far as the Spirit, the logistics prevented me from going full retro. There just aren’t enough good quality classic logos out there for OHL teams (not to mention the possible unfamiliarity with Saginaw being a relatively young OHL town). I used the same font as the Pistons and Red Wings wallpapers and utilized the shoulder logo found on the 3rd jersey.

Happy New Year! I hope your year went a lot better than mine did.

The Pistons’ season starts tonight, so let’s commemerate it with the wallpapers for November. The biggest change this month (for the Red Wings and Pistons wallpapers, anyway) is a new logo for Fox Sports Detroit (formerly FSN Detroit, formerly Fox Sports Detroit). I give Fox three more years before they change the name back to FSN Detroit.

I have the October wallpapers done a bit early because of the Red Wings’ preseason starting up. I managed to squeeze September and October into one month without it looking bad. Yes, I know there’s 31 days in October, but I couldn’t fit it on the Wings wallpaper because the info box had to go somewhere.

Fall has arrived and so has hockey. The Spirit will be playing exhibition games starting this weekend. Oh yeah, those woeful Tigers have one more month in their very dissapointing season.

Here’s the rest of the wallpapers for the month of March. The Spirit wallpapers have a tribute to Mickey Renaud, the captain of the Windsor Spitfires that tragically died on February 18th. Rest in peace.

UPDATE! I have updated a few things on the Red Wings wallpaper, so if you have downloaded a previous version, please get a new copy.
UPDATE 2! The Hornets @ Pistons game was moved to 3:30 PM and ABC. Please download a new version of the Pistons wallpaper.

Here’s a new series of wallpapers entitled “Carved Wood”. This is the Saginaw Spirit edition.

It’s retro month (at least for the Detroit teams). I’ve removed the 1280 x 800 and 800 x 600 options to lessen my workload. If you were using these wallpaper sizes, you can substitute 1440 x 900 and 1024 x 768 (respectively) and set the wallpaper to “stretch” or “scale”.

Also up plenty early are the November 2007 schedule wallpapers. I’ve changed up the backgrounds on all of them (personally, I got really sick of the gradients). The scratched ice background on the Red Wings and Spirit wallpapers was made by the very talented Nicholas “Shadow” Shewchuk. Thanks again!
