Title: Happy Halloween! TG-16 Wallpaper for computer/phone/telex
Post by: esteban on 10/31/2016, 12:35 AM
I took these photos in October of 2009 and promptly lost them/forgot about them.

It was going to be another "Sexy TurboBooster Wallpaper" or "TG-16 is aesthetically kool, you bastards!" sort of thing...

So... these photos were taken with horrible lighting and a crappy camera, but I like a good challenge so I selected a few and tried to make them look decent.

DIRECTIONS: (1) "_full" = Crop these images yourself. (2) You can request specific sizes and I'll make them for you. (3) I was too busy to resize all the images a billion times. So, request something!

TurboTap :)

EXAMPLE: If I was cropping the image above to 1920x1080, I would do this... (a) set width to 1920 (b) play around with the height until it looks nice (only 1080 available).

No TurboTap :(  So no 5-player Dungeon Explorer...

Dem apples look yummy, and the flying Turbob is surely related to Majors's Shuttle.  :mrgreen:

I had caramel apples today (Halloween), but I *really* wanted candy apples. :)

Major's shuttle was, is, and will always be the inspiration.

Always. :)

HELL YES. Ghost Manor is way more fun for me. I die in Nightmare Creatures... and I feel like a chump every time.

Ha! I always thought the TurboStick was goofy, but now I realize I have to take photos of it!

Yup. I had an apple in one hand and an insulin injection in the other.
