shiningdays-saann!
i've just dropped by here because i saw your gallery and it is FANTASTIC xD lol
it's really different / unique and colorful~
also, i absolute agree 100% agree about ipod walls... although there are SOME exceptions.. ;p

they're so cliche these days it's not even funny anymore... *o* heehee <33
btw, i adore your id <3333

Quote by shiningdayswow. and here i was expecting to click and find some filter-whore wall. instead, i find a wall gone slightly mad D

i can't quite comprehend what's going on here and i'm quite fine with that, it seems. it's a tad bit too busy for me. i agree with revan on the white parts; there's quite oblong shapes in the middle of the wall that seem oddly pixelated and that stand out in a bad way from the rest.

good use of colour and an interesting wall.

maybe if i put some nice character, will be no look so weird!

Quote by shiningdaysi was gonna comment on this at session zero at AP, but i guess i'll do it here~

the background seems a bit grainy in contrast with the vector (which was done quite skillfully) and one almost wants the glow of the city to be white and not a slight yellow as it is; but other than that a charming wallpaper.

Thanks for commenting, doesn't really matter where;)
It's true, the contrast between the background and the character is a little stark, but so far I haven't been able to find a way of texturing it without having it look "too textured" (does that make sense?... finals everyone..) Actually, the glow was white in the beginning. But it was kind of too bright for me, and felt a lot colder than I wanted it to be, so I changed it to a slight yellow.
Anyway, thanks a lot for the nice comment!

hellu.. =D
I'm gonna add you to my watchlist.. <3
let's fight, ne? >xD

Quote by SharinganKnightkino no tabi was one of the most amazing and soothing anime I ever saw

Watch Mushishi. :P

haha, well I loved the first anime you recommended me, you loved BECK, and we both loved kino. Chances are MT will be bombarded with walls from this "Mushishi" if our tastes meet on it as well.

Quote by shiningdaysit's a spolier AND I'LL CLOCK IT ANYWHO D:: *cries for E7-obsession leading to spoilers* man, i should just cave and watch the raws, i can handle the japanese anywho.. D:

(oh god the spoilerific pain. BUT IT'S OKAY!)

not really a fan of the straight lines going across the piece in places (the ones on diagonals too) but overall i really like it - there's such an eerie feeling to the entire wallpaper. the text could have been more.. tactfully? done i think but there's good composition here.

ooomg the spoilers are eating me alive BUT I CAN'T STOP LOOKING

I think this is one of those walls where, no matter the simplicity, you can't stop looking. the more i stare the more i like...

+favs.

Thanks a lot for the comment and fav! Im glad you like it so much, and since you like it so much and made comment about the text not being quite right...I updated it with what striket had commented on about the lensflare reflection and moved the text around as well, so here's a freebie if you like here

Keep in mind this is the largest version I made so you can resize it to whatever your needs! Seeya!

ICK! My bad dude, photoshop makes things a LOT brighter than they are really, the 3rd version which I gave you was WAYYY to dark. So I went back to the version you fav'd but added the missing lensflare reflection to it!

Quote by shiningdaysmmm; high style vectoring at its finiest this is a marvelously done wall; you have a way with vector art that most people don't. the only thing i'm wondering is what that blue shape in the bottom (with all the grays) is; it's a bit out of place; but really this wall is fabulous. composition and style are great, the pink and gray are fun and flirty together. well done and +fav ^_^

thx a lot for this comment, the first
I see for the blue sharpe, maybe a little mistake ^^
thx for the fav too
bybye and cya arround !

Thanks a lot for your fav and comment on my Wall Emotional!
I really appreciate it!
I like a lot your art, your style, all that *0*

hahaha! yeah. i like the l337 language but it gets annoying fast. i stick to regular english. ^_^
i could be wrong, but i'd think in a profession like web-design the people who want you to design their pages would want something new/original/ innovative. but like i said, i could be wrong. you're the professional, not me. ^_^ but as they say, if it ain't broke...don't fix it. right? in summary i don't see a problem with sticking to what you know. i just find it fun to venture out of 'the box' sometimes. anyway, yeah i like the wall, and your other works. keep it up.

Quote by shiningdayspreeeeeety! (i was wondering where you went.. )

*ahem* okay, now down to business :P

good use of light there, on the mic; the focus works well. I don't like the colour of the text; but i like the way it was done.

BECK is one of those animes where i start to wonder what the hell i was doing instead of watching it. i need to hunt that down..

anywho, nice wall, need i say more?

mhmm mhhm, I was dragged down to the communist paradise. ^_^

actually, I don't like the color of the text either but I tried so many damn options and was utterly disatisfied with them that I gave up on that one.

P.S. you do have to watch it...its..its just so...good.

Quote by shiningdayshmmm... i dunno about the texture on the snow (it seems a bit jarring in such a soft wallpaper) but other than that it's cute.. i like the bunnies D

Thanks for the comment....... the texture.... from a scan ^____^
*Have a nice day*

Quote by shiningdaysi like it. Leiji has wonderful flow in his work and you reflected that nicely.

this is probably one of the more interesting vectors i've seen in a while.

Hello shiningdays,

yes... Leiji always combines his characters with their surroundings... and I like that very much and tried to capture it in my wallpaper as well. I'm happy that you like the vector... So thanks for taking the time to comment on my wallpaper. I appreciate it! Take care and see you around!

Quote by shiningdayshee-hee, i was just about to use this scan in a wall it's so cute and strange (and so eureka!)

i like the texture on the blue; it makes the wall more interesting, overall.

cute

Thanks a bunch for the comments on "Stairway to Heaven"

Quote by shiningdaysI keep meaning to drop by

Thanks very much for the highlight on Sickness/Lover - having been here for just over a month and having two highlights under my belt is a bit surprising but i'm not complaning

I'm glad you liked the way the scan was treated; i wasn't quite sure what to do with it all (the scan's ultra-busy) so i just kinda messed around

so yeah :3 thanks and happy camping!

Hey no problem! In fact Revan told me that if I hadn't highlighted it then he would've

It was really quite impressive how you handled the scan, because it's not an easy one to wall. That's exactly the kind of beautiful and original imagery that I love to see, but so rarely gets used in wallpapers... so if anything I should thank you for stirring up a little creativity around here

Quote:
gosh; what a fabulous wallpaper. i love it for its simplicity and style; and i like that you didn't really do much to the original manga image (the dot pattern of manga shading works well for this composition.)

Unique character placement and the balancing effect of the letters works well in this wall.

fa'ved

Thanx for the comment and fav, i just update the wall, hope you like it now , is more dark and the text change a little bit, anyway, just came here to say that ^^.

Quote by shiningdaysultra-cool

the vector is skillfully done; fun and playful, colourful and great, everything a wall should be. i don't particularly like the poping-out-ness of the eye from the rest of the wall but w/e, the rest is so great that it's all good. great job

That eye was the most vital point for me but whatever...
Glad you like the rest

DUnno why but i forgot to add you to watchlist *__x

I realised that you are completely right about the quality of the scan I modded in Hippie Hardcore, so updated it in better quality. I was only able to do minor improovements, you might still want to check it out if its really better...

See you soon!

Quote by shiningdaysooh, i like =o.

i enjoy how you filled the text with some FLCL art; i like the dots in the background; i like the vector (and mamimi in general) and i like the simplicity.

Fave!

Thanks xD I'm glad you liked it

Hi! Thank You for the Favo on Hippie Hardcore! I really appreciate it!

Just came here to say that im becoming fan of your work since i see the Holland wall in the front page, really like your style, hope you dont mind if i add you to my WL.

Btw, your last exile wall is part of the AWR gallery, i really like the style and concept of it, thanx for trying something different in this old community.

Good luck~

Quote by shiningdaysthe test needs some work; as mentioned above it's a little too simple, too unincorporated into what otherwise is a great wallpaper. Again, as mentioned above (by BluSake); this s an extremely striking wallpaper; positioning of Integra anywhere but the center would have been sheer folly; and the trees flank her so perfectly that it almost seems as if everything was one image - a desirable effect in a wall like this. everything but the text is perfect; really. perhaps adding a slight texture over the text and an outer glow would work well in such a wall.

Fav'ed

Thanks for the comment and fav on "Integra"! I'll see what I can do about the text, though that won't be much since I suck at working with text

Quote by shiningdaysi really like it. such a small res; but w/e, it's great anywho

the use of texture and such light colours really works well in this piece. the contrast between the overall blue/green (cold) feel of the wallpaper and the pink of her blush and smile also work really well together to accentuate her cute little smile ^_^ there are few people, i think, who can use colour contrast without making it look ugly and clashing. Well done on this wall, and i do beleive i'll be faving it

*hugs* Thanks! :3 <3 Btw, mind if I add you to my watchlist? Because your walls're blinding me to death <3

Quote by shiningdaysi like

it's nice that you kept the original motion of the image (the fishbowl perspective is what i'm mainly talking about here); since, as you mention, the scan is such a cool one. i like the use of the wanted posters, but the one in the veeery front seems a bit.. flat? oh well, it's all good. i dunno about the use of the dup'ed layer + blur around luffy and the horn, i thin kthe wall could have done without it, but overall, very nice

Thanks for the comment on "Arabasta Desert"! I'll see if I can make that poster less flat-looking
