    [Wally] Alright, a bit more effort this time...

    I made two wallpapers for my bro again, obviously they're a lot better than the last one I tried making for him, but I dunno... Trying to make Wallpapers/Backgrounds for MySpace seems to be putting a hex on my skills or something... Anyways, one has the tattoo graphic, edited of course (found a cool python script in GIMP), and the other one doesn't have it.

    (Click to enlarge.)



    Ok, I've gotten a folder of an installed Photoshop CS2 from a friend. Haven't tried using CXOffice to run it yet, but I plan to tomorrow, and I'll see what I can do with it. I've never used CS2, and I haven't used CS in a while, so we'll see what happens I guess...

    Oh, and sorry if some of you get pissed at me for making a new thread, if you think this is a continuation of the other wally or something, but this is an entirely new Wallpaper. And yes, I'm well aware of it's 'flaws'. (Like the bad cropping of the quad, I'm going to find a new quad graphic in the (hopefully) perfected version 3.) AND with the blue in the wheels of the dirt bike. This is just to see if I'm heading in the right direction, or if I need to scrap it yet again and start over.

    I said I know about that part in the dirt bike.. <_<' I overlooked it, and forgot to save the .xcf (same as the photoshop's .psd) file right before I saved the final draft before flattening... So it'd be like taking a few steps backwards, and there's not enough motivation to redo the steps to clean it up...

    Ok, I might later... So, over looking the stupid blue in the bike's spokes....

    EDIT: Wow, gotta love "color to alpha"... It even made the quad graphic look tons better.

    I'm going to be honest, Abit more effort. Alright, i cant say anything on that. But, why in the world would you have a "clip-in" background ? and the colours are killing me.

    You guys are your anime/game-influenced images... Not everything can be a "well polished" siggy based on games, anime, movies, or other forms of media. And as for the clipin background, trust me, it looks a lot better with that jeep there. It was too boring without it.

    And why does everyone hate brown so much?!


    ...Bah!

    Oooo... Better not let anyone who's into racing hear you say that... That's Robbie Gordon you're talkin' about.
