What Exactly Is Pink? by °dalarty 3 weeks 16 hours ago

Not too much for me to say about this wallpaper that hasn't already been said: Dalarty has provided a descriptive walk through all the way from the concept idea, to its execution and ultimately its fruition. And you can really see how that careful planning paid off. But it just goes to show, good ideas take time---and a whole lot of patience!

If this isn't a search box, then where's the frakking search box? Put it at the top of the main page, for crying out loud.

First one on photoshop ? wow that's nice for a first try !
humm I don't like much the background : too much blur..
And I think you should clean a bit more the scan.

After that it will be nicer, I think

Ok its not bad at all , you need to clean a bit the scan
and maybe for the Bg on the top , remove the black ... ( then it will be a 3 color band blanc white red)
something like this :)

Ok this is my new version

I neatened up the characters and changed the first layer. I'm not sure how I did the bit in the centre but I think it looks cool

Nice idea! :D
But Byakuya is a little bit shorter that renji!
You should clean the scans some more!

I can clean the edges but I can't clean the actual scans any more because I've already completely recoloured them to neaten them up

I have cleaned the edges and shortened Byakuya as well as doing a fine clean up of renji:

You have a lot of improvement from the first go around. (^_^) Next time, just try going at the edges with a low opacity eraser brush and the blur tool. Don't be afraid to use a 1 pixel black brush to go over the outlines. With a little practices it will end up looking like you didn't extract it at all. The only other thing is that your signature really, really stands out. If you can try and make it a single line that would fit under the taskbar, then it would let your wallpaper shine more. As it is now, the text is just kind of half visible when it is set as a background.

Bon chance!
