# My first attempt at making a scrolling background.
I tried to make a dog in a cape flying in the foreground but got fed up and gave up.

It's yours if you want it.
Enjoy!
:)

# Aww,

If you're the most mediocre, mediocre person

# I like to see myself als the mediocre middleman

Do you know Die Interimsliebenden by the Einsturzende Neubauten?
I like to think of that as the mediocre theme song myself.

# I must admit
I don't.
*goes to investigate*

\edit: I'm guessing the translation is more relevent that the industrial music (or is that mediocre too?)

# Good effort.
The couple of times I've tried scrolling backgrounds they have been really awkward to make.

# Cheers
I just got a decent panorama pic cropped it, duplicated it and reversed it twice(for a little over-spill),
then created a canvas of a smaller width but the same height and took it into image ready and dragged it along
with the move tool and duplicated until it matched up again.
There's probably a much quicker way, but that's how I did it.

# Thanks!
I read that ages ago before I got any good (hah!) at photoshop. Then couldn't remember where to find it when I did need to make a scrolling background.
