2013 Schedule Wallpaper

I'm curious. What is the resolution you generally start with when producing these? Do you then just resize the original or go into it and scale all the graphics within? What you produce is great but yet simple enough that either way generally wouldn't require much time (that I know of) but I was just wondering.

Whenever I make mine, I generally always make them for myself and the native resolution of my monitor. I do work within a "safe-ish area" most of the time so they work on many different ones, even if clipped a bit. I do this mostly because I either never think to make varying sizes, am too lazy to do it that particular day or being that I am self taught in Adobe products, am too PS dumb to remember how to scale without doing all the extra work.

If you have a good easy way to manage this, I am curious to know because then I am sure I could accomodate more size requests.

 
I start with my monitor's resolution (1366x768). If someone requests a different size, I'll put the base version into it the new resolution and frame it with the base black and add the white trail behind the block 'N' if necessary.

Ah, that makes more sense and is a solid way to do it. Mine don't tend to have that padding on the side, which creates headaches for me if someone asks for a different size and I don't save my work appropriately, which I have a habit of doing.

I would like to add another to the mix. One that isn't my own (been too busy getting married) but from a friend who's work has improved leaps and bounds over a short period of time.

Here is one of my favorites of his 2013 season stuff:
