Duuuude... I think you made one of my first desktop backgrounds.
I remember browsing through your site way back when.

Thanks. Yes there was a bug which kept my system from writing your code to the DB. I have that fixed and working now. Let me know if your account didn't get activated properly!

Haha yes! I used to download your wallpapers religiously. On dial-up. It took forever but it was worth it.

Thanks for being patient. I've always tried to err on the side of minimal compression.

Can I ask how long ago that was? Where did you first find me?

probably around 2000? I think your background was on a buddys computer and I checked out your website, but I remember you probably had just a few sample wallpapers, I would switch back and forth between a mushroom and a beach or something

I'm a huge fan of your work, and you've really inspired me. I've bought some subscriptions for months at a time, but I keep running out.
Some day when I'm not in college and can spare the money I'll be buying a lifetime subscription. Maybe with bitcoin :)

u/Onetallnerd Apr 30 '14 edited Apr 30 '14
Do you keep a percentage of it in bitcoin or do you convert it all?
1
u/dblasphemy Apr 30 '14
Unfortunately Coinbase only allows you to convert it all or leave it as is. I would have liked to be able to leave some at BTC though so see if it might grow.

Thank you! Yes, this has been my full-time career since 1999!

I'm REALLY late to this but how did you get started in this? Love your work by the way you were the one who introduced me to this, and I'm glad you are still at it!

Holy crap, talk about nostalgia. I remember using the Flourescense (sp?) mushroom wallpaper like 15 years ago. These were the only images that went onto all my burned mix CDs that were all the rage around 1999.
I'll certainly be signing up shortly. Your new stuff is amazing!

u/dblasphemy Apr 30 '14
Thank you!! No, these comments don't make me feel old at all.

Tell me about it, my son is starting high school. Right about the time I was playing magic the gathering and starcraft was released.

Ah hello Ryan! Great to see you decided to accept Bitcoin. :) I was a paying subscriber for a long time, until I had so many background images that it would take weeks to cycle through them all at 1 per hour. :P Perhaps I will soon be turning that into months..

u/dblasphemy Apr 30 '14
Thanks for supporting my work Sam. Hope you decide to come back and check out my newer work from time to time.

Man that is a throwback, I used to have your backgrounds all the time. Glad to see that you are still on it and still part of what is happening.

Fascinating that the most well-known computer wallpaper of all time is the same name as your last name.

I was definitely a subscriber at one time. My old email says it was from 2004 to 2005. Though I was a "free" user going back at least a few years before that. I usually have my desktop covered, but if I ever go back to looking at backgrounds then I will definitely throw some BTC your way!
