This wallpaper. My 1st. Its evolved so much since my 1st draft. Ah... 2 long weeks, and 46 drafts ago... It was "A Rose of a Fading World", which then became "The Eternal Guiding Star", and then to what it is now. This took so long, and so many drafts... I have mroe drafts than layers on this wallpaper! Anyway, I struggled a lot with this. I think the wings gave me the most trouble, and trying to make them look like 2 wings, and not 1. I think I got that down. I also had a bunch of trouble with the planet. I don't know, but I think I fixed it. Onto the things I liked. I liked the wings. After working so hard on it, I still can't believe they were originally gonna start out pink. It didn't look nearly as good, and didn't blend nearly as well with my blue theme as blue wings did. I also loved the comets. Both the blue and white ones and the thinner light blue ones. I also liked how the effect I used on the planet of Tethe'alla gave it an atmosphere... kind of. Anyway, I present, "A Prayer to Tethe'Alla"

Congratulations on having it accepted! I don't remember if I posted in that 100 post thread of yours, lol but I did remember actually reading through it. It evolved so much; loved how you didn't give up even after your computer crashing (twice I believe it was >.< ). Kudos for a great wallpaper, and Good luck in future projects!

I really like the wall, despite being a colette hater XD. But yeah it looks pretty nice. There just aren't enough Tales of Symphonia walls. Damnit, somebody do a good Sheena wall! >:o lol

ok.. it looks nice.. but the extraction is really bad.. and you shouldve fixed it first before submitting it here.. the character is really bright. and some of the details are inviciblee.. i like those swirly stuff that you put on the background.. but i think the background is too plain.. you shouldve put more effects and stuff.. like those glowing circles there.. and sparkless.. and stars.. o well... look nice though..

Congratulations ^_^ ive seen your wall evolve in SZ and to see you final product here is a good feling now that was the longest thread in SZ ive seen :P the background i think came out rather nicely in the end. the plnet with the outer glow rlly works in this. from your first draft i remmber the bg was filled with stars, i tink its good that u kept it clear but a few start would hav been nice the only thing that bothers me is the extraction of her hair. it could hav been better but this s a great start from you, along the way you learned a lot no? well done ^_^

Ur wall changed completely from ur first post till the last from SZ. I like the effects u made in ur backgound and ur the wings looks pretty neat. The scan needs to be extracted a bit more better as small cracked lines are visible around the scan. It was a long journey for u and u manage to come through the light at the end Keep it up!

Nice wallpaper! Part of the wallpaper I really like is the little particle thingies, they look cool. Aside from that, the mere fact that the ToS section is getting filled up with walls while I'm not done with mine is a sign...either I'm getting lazy or I'm too busy (let's go with the too busy part ^-^;)
Anyway, nice wall. Expect my wall of celsius posted soon (as i finish it..)

I really like how you did her wings. The colours here look a little too saturated and stand out against the black background, giving it a nice shiny look. The concept for this wallpaper is a really neat one. Keep it up!

Its ok, to bad its only in 1024x768 and as someone say'd in the comments Colette is a little to bright, doesn't really fit in the background but still good job

Nice wall and great job! I love Collete's wings! I saw someone asking for a sheena pick and i have a pretty nice one. I might submit it but i'm gonna have to fix it up a bit. Maybe that will be something to look forward too :D Nice job!

The scan looks a little messy, but not really noticeable. I like the wings you added for her since it really fits with her. The background looks great with the planet and the little line effects you made between the girl and the planet is a nice touch too. Good job.

I like those wings, I think they're wings. They look really cool. I like how the background is designed as well.

You did a great job on the background. But the scan is a little rough. You should've have cleaned it up little bit more.

For me, your first work was excellent at least it attracted me. Anyway, Collet Brunel is my favorite character in Tales of series game. Keep going pal.
