Kemaru Posted January 18, 2009 Share Posted January 18, 2009 @Bunnie: Looks awesome, but try to add some detail to the background space, the stars should differ in size. Try using Random shape fill plugin by prochild, or Add noise ( :AddNoise: ). This applies to you, too pipp. :wink: Oh, and the lighting comes from the left, but try brightening and blurring it a little and focusing the lighting more on the left side, if you know what I mean. So, here is a wallpaper I made: It's called Marine Mint.

LFC4EVER Posted January 18, 2009 Share Posted January 18, 2009 Nice work Kemaru, i suggest blurring the background a bit more. The edges are a bit too strong and distracting - just a little though. KIU MegaNight, nice job on the Ufo, but the explosions on the planet seem wierd. Maybe make then a tad more blue.. i don't know lol. Nice work though, KIU. I worked on a wallpaper today using this pattern: [link] Quote ☆★☆★Merry Christmas★☆★☆  .::.My Gallery.::.Make Gold Text!.::. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
007 Nab Posted January 19, 2009 Share Posted January 19, 2009 The lighting at the top adds a very nice touch of realism. I like this wallpaper/concept a lot.

worldnewser Posted January 19, 2009 Share Posted January 19, 2009 A lot of sci-fi wallpapers here, my favorite theme @LFC---Nice wallpaper. Love the simplicity as well as the lighting on the top. The only problem is (and this is just a small technical one. Forgive me for paying too close attention towards minimal things) I don't think you're allowed to hyperlink images directly to the image. I think that the images should be hyperlinked to the deviantart page where the image resides. Again, forgive me for being hypercritical this isn't something I'm against, it's just a little warning because I remember a really old discussion on this forum about hyperlinking directly to the image and that it was against deviantart rules or something. I could be wrong though. Just putting it out there :wink: -------------------- I really like this wallpaper. I should probably change the scanlines though Quote  deviantART Space and the Relative---Space Art Basics Tut (BETA) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
007 Nab Posted January 19, 2009 Share Posted January 19, 2009 So you mean - hosting it on the forum as a thumbnail instead? Quote "pyrochild, you're my favorite person ever.

Kemaru Posted January 19, 2009 Share Posted January 19, 2009 photobucket is a good place, and so is imageshack. Quote Hatred does not cease by hatred, but only by love; this is the eternal rule. |fb(page)|portfolio|blog| Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LFC4EVER Posted January 19, 2009 Share Posted January 19, 2009 Photobucket (free) resizes the wallaper. It allows max res of 1024x768, or limit to 1MB filesize, and my wallpaper was 1.11MB + a higher res. Anyway, i changed it wallpaper link to what worldnewser said. Can't take risks, ya know?

worldnewser Posted January 19, 2009 Share Posted January 19, 2009 Just to clarify (yeah I know it seemed confusing): It's fine to use D.A's thumbnails, but it's no good to hyperlink to the image directly. The thumbnail should link to the deviantart page of the actual image :wink: I just didn't want anyone having D.A on their back because of such a subtle use of links :wink: Quote  deviantART Space and the Relative---Space Art Basics Tut (BETA) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
007 Nab Posted January 19, 2009 Share Posted January 19, 2009 Ahh that makes sense. Thanks for the clarification. I don't know if those rules apply for Imageshack - I've been doing it that way for quite some time Here's a possilbe Desktop Image I made trying to emulate J2k's and LFC's lighting: Clicky Quote "pyrochild, you're my favorite person ever.

Toasty Posted January 21, 2009 Share Posted January 21, 2009 I really like this picture, and I thought I'd take a stab at adding rain, so there you go. Also, with a text effect I came up with, zoom blurred and overlayed onto the main picture. And the origional is here. 2560x1600 versions of the above two edits can be downloaded here and here.

Chazizzle77 Posted January 21, 2009 Share Posted January 21, 2009 Here are a few backgrounds I've come up when bored in the later hours of the night They're are mostly just heaps of different effects added to a mixture of colours that I started with . . . The letters BAJ are my girlfriends initials This is a background for my playstation three (Im only fourteen ) This one I'm just not sure . . . something to do with gradient bars and a little messing with the layer settings This was meant to be like a spiraling tunnel sorta thing, but something went wrong . . . and then i just kept going . . . Just a splash of paint and a fiddle with 'curves', add some glass boxes and you got yourself a hippy background :wink: I went crazy . . . Inspiration: Peacock A background I made for my girlfriend Umm . . . you figure it out This one started out as an 'exploding planet', but i got bored, so i added a bit of a twist . . . Well, thats it really, i think i have more, but I wont waste anymore space. Criticism please !!! Quote ----------------. . .

Chazizzle77 Posted January 22, 2009 Share Posted January 22, 2009 Cheers hyrule, that's the first compliment I've gotten on PDN I haven't been Paint.NET-ing very long, i just like fiddling with all the different effects to come up with something a little abstract Quote ----------------. . .

stealthed Posted January 26, 2009 Share Posted January 26, 2009 Nice work, it looks good, though the moon is a little transperent on the edges (can see the stars through it) I do not know how hard it is to fix, since i have never made a planet/moon.
