    Almost half of the wallpaper width is not visible. Like the butterfly :rofl:
    560x98 is more than enough.

    You're welcome man!
    Yeah, now I got it, last time I didn't realize about that. Because I am not UI/UX designer, so I am inaccurate about that.
    But, I will do my best next time.
    Btw, thanks for your advice!

    Wow... Guideline design for kontakt wallpaper... :wink:
    Btw, how when someone using 4K monitor? Because as we know new library will came with a bigger design than the old one. So, I think there is new template (guideline) for that.
    Thanks for sharing man!
    If anyone have the new guideline please upload here...

    Ever since later versions of Kontakt were released, it became essential that wallpaper designers present the name of the publisher''s library & main graphics as far to the left side as correctly as possible. I've repeated this many times on this forum. The right side of the center (for Kontakt's (restricted) display serves as "eye-candy" in most. In addition, there are many Kontakt users who continue to use older versions. In that case, it's NOT eye-candy, because their versions will continue to display a more expansive view. Once again, whether or not wallpaper makers truncate their wallpaper templates or not, what's most important is that they adhere to how the MAIN graphics & labels are displayed. (That rule applies both vertically and horizontally).

    I would not want to restrict the freedom of others in art, so I will argue why I use my UX / UI. On the left side I have a logo (icon) that does not take up much space and the name of the library. On the right is the full name of the publisher and the space for "eye candy". The logo is embossed or beveled so as not to disturb the main graphics of the library. Orientation between tens of libraries is quick and easy this way.

    If you can't identify the publisher by the logo in minimized view, just stretch the Kontakt window and you can also enjoy "eye candy" :)

    Say Ray: The term "eye-candy" simply means something that is visually attractive, but only 'superficially' or cosmetically important. For example: if I create a wallpaper graphic that falls outside the display zone on your Kontakt tab, I consider that to be "eye candy". As a wallpaper creator, I tend to use a template of 633 x 98. Some use a smaller size to accommodate latest versions of Kontakt's tab display zone. I like to work using a larger palate.

    I've designed hundreds & hundreds of wallpapers at this site for almost 6 years. So obviously, I've developed my own style. Over the years, as Kontakt has revised and updated their platform, I've had to make adjustments on graphics and publisher images. Fundamentally however, the basics remain the same. In any event, anyone and everyone is free to create their own individual designs. Sometimes, I throw out advice to newer wallpaper designers based upon my experience. But, folks will inevitably (as they should) create what they feel comfortable with. Bottom line? Do your own thing!

    I made a couple of wallpapers for Orchestral Tools - Berlin Strings - Special Bows I & II for myself. Thought I'd post in case anyone else wanted them also. I wanted something more in keeping style-wise with the original/legit ones.
