So with AI there is the potential of redoing the wallpapers and doing them much better (I am certainly not an artist). What is everyone's thoughts on redoing the wallpapers with this as an example (in the process I would also increase the size from 1920x1080 to 2560x1440):

That's pretty slick
Nice, I'll have to try them out.
New account, Guess I'm starting totally over. :-\
Looks good!
Here is one I have replaced on the site already:

Love this. Now I just need to find the book.

Have you read the book, or are you talking about the background? I do like the background, and I hope the book is good.

Both! I have indeed read the book and I think it does a great job of setting up this crossover series of Nancy Drew and The Hardy Boys! And the background wallpaper is indeed awesome! :) 8)

What was the book like? Unfortunately, I can't find it anywhere. :(

Unfortunately, for me, the AI version looks like the planet sets from "Star Trek TOS" or the first two seasons of STTNG (The Last Outpost).
As for "Double Crossing" it was a good start for the series. We got some back story on how Nancy attended Bayport High just before "Secrets Can Kill". Also it setup the Nancy-Frank romance arc.

So Nancy must've lived close to Bayport. Wish I could get that book. No mention of Bayport High in the Files or the PC game.

Tomswift2002 already mentioned some of the highlights. I haven't read it in a very long time but I do recall that the story is set on a cruise ship. It's interesting to note that one of the last books in the series also centers around a ship.(
Operation Titanic)

I do have that one. Unfortunately, it's not one of my favorites.

In the Files-Casefiles continuity, Nancy lives in River Heights, Illinois, just outside Chicago (maybe 90-120 minutes) whereas Bayport is in New York State. But in "Double Crossing" it said that Nancy was an exchange student at Bayport High.

I wonder if that was just a temporary cover for a case.

They never go into more detail than that.

What I wonder is how they keep all her schooling straight.

In the Files Nancy has graduated high school.

She wouldn't even be able to undercover in high schools, if she actually has. Other series and the PC games put her at like 18 and still in high school, like senior year I'd imagine.
