This wallpaper gives us a perfect example of how a simple manga scan can be turned into a beautiful vector. Not only did danalm trace the lineart, but he also added amazing details and a simple, yet wonderful background. Furthermore, the wallpaper shows us how the monochromatic style can make your work look really interesting.

All three images started out as super dithered gif files, so if anyone's wondering about that. Short of smudging the entire thing (which is pretty much what I did) I didn't have any other ideas. I actually really like how Kid came out, it really looks how I wanted it to. Criteques are very welcome, I'm still new to the whole wallpaper thing. The one's I usually so are really simple.

BTW it looks way better if you actually look at it on your desktop. 800x600 is the real size, so it looks a little blurry in 1024x768.

It's not bad but I think it's too blurry.

Woah...hmm...there's that size prob =P I suggest restarting the whole project in a larger size XD The char on the left doesn't look that bad, but I can only comment on it once the resolution is a bit bigger. I'd get rid of the shadow of the char or w/e it is =P You may also want to get rid of the text, sometimes the image itself is already self-explanatory. You can always type the text in the author's comment instead of the wall.

Aside from the blur and the resolution i think the text should be smaller. Its a bit too big in my opinion.

Lose the stroke on the text and maybe make it a glow instead. Glows are always cool and maybe take away some of the text too. I think that it would look better too if you just took out the character on the left. It just seems like it's in the way and it makes things look cluttered. If you did that you could maybe even keep the text. Play around with things and don't get discouraged.

Sounds good, I'll try all that and put the fixed one up a little later.

Why is the image like that!? It's blurry as Warrior said. And you can't see the character well enough. It's not clean. Not trying to be mean. Just saying that. Not an expert here!

Is that a screenshot of the menu animation? If so, I see why you used the filter on it. PSX games are crazy pixelated.
If you could find a way to keep the character crisp along with the distorted water background, it would look much better.
This is a good idea, keep working on it.

The images are a bit blurry and need some cleaning up, the text should be smaller or taken out compleately and added to the authors comments as highknees said.I think you should start from scratch but still use the same concept and use a larger size that way it'll look better.sorry if i sound mean.^^
