Meeeeeeeeeeehh... I mean that looks great, but I don't really like your choice of background. Perhaps somewhere a little more exciting? Great effect though!

I must say, you pulled it of very, very well. Most of the time excess use of filters comes out bad, but you seem to have done it masterfully <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

nice... it even kinda looks like an oil painting...

(I missread what Brave Ulysses said, not having too much happening is a very good thing for a wallpaper)
indeed it is <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->
glad you guys like it..
( is it me or has the artforum gone a little... dead-like kinnda ? )
I think that's exactly the point of this picture. It's not like every single wallpaper has to be some storm thing with bodies flying everywhere. Calm is good too, and I think it's quite an appropriate place.
Question 2. How, what filters??
Question 3. Make more.. Wait a sec thats not a question
