Good work, and a great first attempt.

 

[Law]

I think it looks pretty awesome.

I don't see why you'd want your forum username on your desktop, though.

Looks very good for a first timer!
Really, very good.

Although your name shouldn't be on there, or definately not so visible.
And the right side of the light thingy is a bit weird.

If you don't want someone saying they did it look at ths: http://i34.tinypic.com/5ahug8.jpg . Feel safe now? It's really easy to rip it out.

I don't recall him saying that was his end-all thief deterrent.
In fact all he said was to remind HIM that HE did it.
Besides it's not like he's distributing this and to be honest who steals wallpapers as their own?

[Wabsta]

But I wouldn't use it..

Erm, Mr. Ducky? I have some opinions that might improve your wallpaper

1. In the Center beam, it might be better if you add some scattered brush but it is spiralling. It will add more atmosphere.
2. The "soul" like (sorry, I don't know how to say

) that gathered spirally might be good if you turn the opacity down a bit, it might good~

Maybe I could give you the example (based from what I learned), luckily, I have saved it~ :

Spoiler

Title : Laser beam (Example)
Using : Photoshop CS2
How many layers : 4 layers
How long you made : About 15 - 30 minutes

You can have it~ It is just my example~

Gore called it right

wichi , I already thought of the second option you mentiond..
didnt understand the first one.

 

[wichiandy]

Uh, sorry, I could make it clear~

I mean about the beam that shot vertically and straight, it is better (from my perspective) if you add some scattered brush (the brush type might be better using small circle) around that straight beam~

Hello Ducky. Me likes.

But it still won't replace my current wallpaper

 

[Leein]

I like it. Clean and simple. Personally, I would like it a little more if the beam in the center kind of flared out a little... dunno how to explain that... like it is kind of wisping out. Just don't like how it is so concentrated.

Anyway, come to think of it, the wallpaper kind of reminds me of Metroid Prime 3.

 

[Sstew]

Really Good, Although for the beam in the middle, I'd blur or flair It just looks to.. plain. Or maybe a spiral.

Other than that I think its a great first wallpaper

 

[Mei-o]

Ditch the lens flare, make the spiraling ghost things less solid, and the blue glow a bit more blurry.

 

[Raika]

hehe the current wallpaper im using is the default wallpaper for the windows xp (the one with the sky and green land thingy

)

 

[redact]

that bg looks awesome, my current bg is the pandora

 

[Ducky]

Thanks alot.
