Hello to everybody out there, this is my first post in this forum! I really like the Disgaea series so i decided to try and make a wallpaper... I know it isn't great but this is my first attempt after all... I think it's a bit too simplistic, anyone got any ideas... maybe I should put a title, but i don't want to clutter up the picture

1024x768

I hope you like it! Oh btw is this the proper way to post a wallpaper in this part of the forum?

Anyway this is the second attempt...i think this one works pretty well [url=http://i173.photobucket.com/albums/w78/shinkinbooya/Disgaealarge.jpg]1024x768

Possible problems

  • It might be too cluttered, maybe i should tone down the background a bit and make it more simple...
  • i think there is some saturation/color problems

Maybe i should rethink this wallpaper and start it over again...

Unfortunately your image post was unsuccessful , which may relate to a lack of replies. From what I can see in the thumbnail, It looks simple and true to the artwork of the series (based on a Strategy RPG if you didn't know). I like simple walls, don't think a wall need to be cluttered with images that you have to play Where's Waldo to find everything. Complicated ones can be nice but they have to be done very well. I also prefer walls that work with, not around, the artwork and animation style of a particular Anime. Try posting your wall again with another image hosting site. I'd love to see it. Keep up the good work.

It's just 4 hours since this post was made. Please exercise some patience.

And I have edited your wallpaper url. The code which you placed was messed up, resulting in the wallpaper unable to load (got redirected to the AP main page instead).

As for the wallpaper, the background is rather low quality. There's a lot of image artifacts, blurriness and upsizing effects. From what I can see, I hypothesized that it is a scenery image which was then upsized/enlarged to fit onto a wallpaper canvas.

My recommendation is to start out with something that is your own. Try something minimalist utilizing shapes and colors. You just need to match the style with the image. Does not have to be complicated, just as long as it provides decent visual appeal and image quality.

Please be informed that upsizing images as wallpaper backgrounds falls short on the AP quality policy and is also considered lacking in effort as it does not involve much skill.

This is a really cute wallpaper. However, the edges could use some smoothing. They're kind of pixelly. And I don't know about the logo. The second wall is much nicer than the first though. And again, don't forget your sig! ^-^ Also, on the girl on the right's hair, there are some extraction issues at the bottom. You should be sure to fix those up. Well, good luck!
