What Exactly Is Pink? by °dalarty 3 weeks 2 days ago

^nat
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!

Finally I'm submitting a wall. It's my first, so hopefully it's good.
Photoshop was being a bitch to me. Finally I got it to work properly.
It's a Range Murata wall, abstract/techy look. 1024x768. I don't have any other resolutions. Bite me.
I doubt this piece of crap will be accepted, but atleast I'll give it a try. =/
Total time: 4-5 hours
Layers: I lost count at 85.

Here's the link:

Sorry about not having an image preview up...I don't use image shack.

Hey, thats not bad. Good ideas but some technical problems I think. Some of the little abstract vectors look really bad... like the green ones next to her foot, look like they were done in paint, by that i mean just jagged... if you can find a way to smooth those it would be better.

Hmmm...the only problem I see there is the scan...it's in the bad quality and it needs a little cleaning...but overall it's so nice...well good luck on that wall!

Some of that looks like you did it in Paint o__o
it's too blurry...hmm the scan isn't very clean either.
Other than that I think it's reaaaaally good.
keep up the good work~

Hm.
None of it was done in paint.
The vectors just got screwed up because
I had to upload using low quality.
Photoshop isn't a very good provider.

Alright then, I'll fix the scan quality tomorrow.
Or some day... O_o;
When I'm not as lazy..
Thanks.

Oh and also,
I hope you all full-viewed it.
I'll fix the vectors, but rukawa- I changed the quality
of the scan already. There's a glow effect done in it purposely, which is why
it looks that way.
Anyways, if it really is perturbing, then I'll fix it.

Otherwise thanks for the critique.
I just want to know if it's good enough to be submitted.

As for the bg , its great ...but the thing that will get it rejected is the extraction of the scan and the scans qualiy...you might be able to get a way with the quaily if the fix the exraction
(i did not read all the other posts here , sorrry if im repeating things)
heres what i meanthe red is the extraction and the green is the quality....i hope this helps ^_^ keep up the great work

I don't like the 3D render in the background either.

I agree, that should go as well, but if you do the things here i think it could be a "todays top rated"

Oh.
Thankyou TheSquid for pointing my mistakes out. x)
For some reason I didn't see that. O_o;
But thanks, I'll re-extract and toon it again some other time.


Hm. About the 3d render. Well, I tried removing it to see how it looked,
and realized that the wall began to look very hum-drum/dull without it.
That's why I'd like to keep it there...I'll just try fading it out more instead.

Anyways, thankyou so much for your suggestions.
I really appreciate it, and I'll be sure to fix my mistakes. ^_^;

Okay so,
I re-extracted the image, and then I stroked whatever qualities were highlighted.
I also fixed the colors in the vectors by her foot so that they wouldn't look distorted as if they're from Paint.
I tried removing/fading the render, and then wall looked really crappy and dull without it.
So I kept it there.
I also added a few outer glows on the stuff near the top right corner, and added a second ring in "Digital Emotion"
I hope this one is capable of being submitted now. Geez. x_x;

Don't draw circles when you can use default shapes to make them. The bg colors are a bit "Dull" for the scan. Triangles don't quite match and the scanlines across are kinda not matching. im not sure how you got the outline of the scan jagged like that.. Low quality setting? It's much too jagged the extraction. Looks like you redrew it. >_<

I didn't draw the circles. I used default shapes.
Hm. I tried to make the background seem abstract and different, which reasons for the different shapes.
I restroked the scan, which is why it looks like crap, but I'll fix that this weekend so no worries. (:
Hm, I did save it on low quality, which explains the shitty appearance, so I'll raise the quality a bit when I save the wall again.
Anyways thanks Phoenix. ^_^;

I'll fix it this weekend...or later...O_o;
