The iPhone 4 (with its super fancy “Retina Display“) was announced today and I’ve just added 640 x 960 images to fit it. Thanks to the new iOS4 you will finally be able to see the wallpaper behind your phone icons (without jailbreaking the phone).
These files, like the Droid, N1 and Evo wallpapers, will be reserved for my faithful Members.
Interested in a free 1 year (or Lifetime) Membership?
DB Member “Walo” has, in an act of extreme generosity, purchased a number of 1-year Membership Gift Certificates and left it to me give them away. It was a wonderful gesture and I will try to do it justice.
Here’s how it will work. If you are interested in a free 1 year Membership all you need to do is write a post on the DB Facebook wall regarding why you deserve it the most. Yes, this contest is only open to Facebook “fans” and you must admit that you “Like” Digital Blasphemy in order to post on my wall. Please preface the post with the words “DB MEMBERSHIP GIVEAWAY” so I know you are entered.
You can post a photo, a video, or just write what you feel. 7 Winners will be selected (based on the comments/likes they receive from my FB Fans and on my own “über alles” vote) with 6 receiving 1 year Memberships (as donated by Walo) and 1 overall winner receiving a Lifetime Membership (donated by me). Current Members can participate as well. I will just apply the gift certificate as a renewal.
I’d like to give away the Memberships on Wednesday June 9th so please have your entries posted by then.
So let’s hear it. I know there a lot of you out there who want to be Members but, for whatever reason, haven’t pulled the trigger so far. May the most

I’ve added the dual and triple-screen versions of “Pulsar” to the gallery this morning. I let the star spin a bit from its single-screen orientation to get the look I wanted for the wider frame. I also restricted the planets to the center of the screen to combat the barrel distortion that sometimes plagues these renders.
I also wanted to mention the fact that I have begun adding personal notes to each image. You will find them above the download links on the image preview pages (example).
The notes are something I used to do many years ago, but for whatever reason fell out of the habit. I’ve finished note for all of the work on the new images page and I will be working through the rest as time permits. I will try to keep the notes short but informative 😉
Lastly, Zazzle has extended their Memorial Day weekend 50% off sale to today. You can get the discount by entering the coupon code “MEMORIALSALE”. If you are interested here’s a poster version of “Pulsar” newly uploaded. Enjoy!

I hope everyone is enjoying a pleasant final day of May. A few items to report today. First, Zazzle has been offering 50% off posters all weekend. The coupon code is “MEMORIALSALE”. If there are images in my gallery that you feel really need a poster, please post in the thread below!
Second, I’ve rendered a special version of “The Ride” for a company that licenses my work for greeting cards in the UK. I’ve brightened the image significantly for print, and I’ve posted a version in the Pickle Jar without Santa so Members can use it as a wallpaper year-round.
The multiscreen of “Pulsar” is nearly ready and should be up either later today or tomorrow morning.
