Oh, I dig. That looks great. What is that effect called that makes it look scratchy? Now that I see it on my screen, I can see why it would look odd. You got the elements I wanted, and I LOVE it. Thanks for taking time out of your busy schedule. Glad you like it. There's no effect to make it look scratchy... I just use photoshop to add layers and then use blending options to gain my desired look (in instances like this). For example, on this wallpaper, I added a layer of scratchy texture (can be found on various texture websites), then changed the blending mode to hard light and cranked the opacity down to 39%. Sounds a lot more complicated than it is. And no problem about taking the time. That's what I'm here for!

It's not a very organised programme like Photoshop, but I'm still finding my way in GIMP. Great wallpaper, though! I love the scratchness in it.

I should probably *try* some sort of program, I'm usually pretty good at figurin stuff out.
I think it's the best WP yet, not to take anything away from the others.

Great work, man.
We have so much artistic talent in our midst. Say, where's Natalie at? Shouldn't she be wowing us with something else right about now? And what of Tony's creations? And PhantasmPhan?

I actually tried to get a hold of Natalie yesterday. We miss her around here (same with a lot of folks). I plan on getting some new banners and such pumped out real soon for you all. It's been too long!
