NaNo Calendars
I found this thread in the NaNo forums for people to make and post their desktop wallpaper/calendars for the month. Some of them were so awesome I had to try my hand at making some. Please feel free to use and enjoy.
This first one is the original, turned out a little darker than intended in some spots and lighter in others but I love it. That’s the original image in the center without any tweaking. I found it on yahoo and snagged it.
Numbers go from left to write, the original is the first one in the pile.
Original) I really recommend reading the little squares. A few are based on inside jokes but I don’t doubt for a second that you’ll still find them all pretty funny. I wish some of my graphics came out better but I forgot to change some settings before I did the final save and layer change.
1.) I made this one because I have a preference towards blue over red (actually I like greens and purples but neither of those came out half as nicely). I still should have lightened it up but I love how the paws turned out.
2.) This is the same as the red one but smaller and in a different format for those who need it. The quality really went down.
3.) Same as above.
4.) These next two are ‘inked’ or done like in a pen or cartoon format. I really like how these two turned out.
5.) Another blue one and that’s it, well, it’s more purple’ ish but yeah.

Aww, those are really cute! I was the one who posted that thread on NaNo. :) Desktop calendars are both creativity-inspiring and guilt-inspiring, I find. Guilt, because every time I see it, it reminds me that I’m not writing! I have to make one tomorrow, too. I was hoping to find one in that thread, but I suppose the best ones are really the ones you do yourself, right? ;)

Chibi: Thank you! :D I thought that might have been you but I didn’t know. Took me forever to re-find the thread again. :D Guilt… oh yeah… but it’s fun guilt because you have to procrastinate in at least something in order to make ‘em. :D
Muchly agreed!
