The Desktop Wallpaper Project featuring Travis Millard
August 13, 2008 | Categories: The Desktop Wallpaper Project


Happy Wednesday everyone! I can’t believe the week is already at it’s halfway point! Since I like to mix things up here on the DWP, I’ve decided to go with an extremely lo-fi approach this week. I was also partially influenced by seeing this week’s artist at Simpleasures in all of his bearded glory. This week I’m proud to announce Mr. Travis Millard, one of my absolute favorite artists and the genius behind Fudge Factory Comics. Ever since I first came across Travis’ work I’ve been pretty obsessed, with all the face ripping, fist fights, and all the gritty details in-between.

This weeks wallpaper is actually taken from a tiny piece that Travis did, it’s maybe 3″ x 4″, but I love it because now you can see all those tiny details. To me this wallpaper totally looks like a big, menacing fart cloud, and who wouldn’t want one of these as their work background? Just tell your co-workers that if they keep bothering you that you’ll this thing will mess their day up.

I also want to remind everyone again that the DESKTOP BATTLE! with SELECT is still in effect, and the theme is facial hair (which is also Travis Millard related). I’ve gotten a bunch of awesome entries so far but I need lots more, so keep on sending ‘em in! And don’t forget that you can win a ton of awesome stuff from Threadless’ SELECT line of shirts!

  1. This is a really nice wallpape, but your link for the 1024X768 size goes to the James Gulliver Hancock wallpaper.
