This wallpaper captures the urban essence that proliferated the art of Ghost in the Shell in every incarnation of the series. Phill does an amazing job of capturing a moment of surrealism.
While there are a few, stray building angles and shadows, you find that your eye forgives the minor details and instead focuses on the overall scene that is larger than life, with lights trailing off into infinity.
"Awesome, man. I'm a big fan of well-textured walls and this is great stuff. You certaintly portrayed a soothing atmosphere here, and Ed with his gaze set towards the "knowledge" really draws the viewer in. The subtle typography at the right brings it all together. Keep it up. Cheers!" View

"Heh, wow, this is probably the best DBZ wall I've seen. Awesome you decided to pick up something so old and go with it - the end results are awesome! I remember this scene vividly. (though it was like 5 years ago when I saw it..) I think you could improve upon the beams of light radiating from the bomb, but other than that its just fine." View

"Wow sexy vector, I love the colors you chose and the shine on the cherry really tops things (including ice cream, har har) off! I'd like to see a version without the white borders, if possible - it'd make a sexier desktop that way! (in my opinion, at least.)" View

"Its so nice! I'm glad you added the swordfish in there, it really brings the wall together. What a great gift, I know she'll like it. YOU BETTER LIKE IT FLYIN OR I'LL HAUNT YOUR DREAMS. O____O ... sorry, I watched a lot of horror movies this weekend. XD" View

"I think some minimalistic, subtle orange vector work in the BG would make this wall stunning. Its a good start, but as others have said it needs a bit more. " View

"This is a wonderful wallpaper - you certaintly deserve a feature for this. I'm looking at the PSD I'm working with and thought my measly 67 layers was a lot, but you used 256 LAYERS. That's insane. I actually read all your description, and its apparent you put your heart and soul into this, and the payoff is tremendous. I'll mock your comment about the sky, "I LOVE it >____<" !!! XD " View

" @ you for walling Murata.. this image is sexy (and I don't care how old she is T_T). The wall is very well done, I would never think to place her in such an open, BLUE setting like you did. Great glass, and the tower in the BG brings everything together. and more for job well done!" View

"Ahhhhhhh so THAT is where my avatar character is from! I got a huge CG pack and there were numerous pics with her in it, but I never could figure out where she was from. The wall is pretty nice, the different BG elements are complex yet elegant, probably due to the fact that colors of the BG are all so similar. I normally like to deviate colors a bit, so the uniformity works well here. Nice job, and thanks again for enlightening me as to where this girl was from!" View
