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.
Well, mom paid it, so okay. And she chosed the DVD player with "I want that cause it would look good in the room". For what the hell we have now 500W 5.1 speakers?
"Beautiful work :) definitely looks like a oil painting or something. can't believe the trees are a scan! looks more like you made them yourself. well done!" View

"You did a terrific job! couldn't have been easy considering the pic you used. i find the whole thing quite appealing and sexy. the bg and text seem to blend nicely with your scan.
i kinda feel the bg shapes (swirls, etc...) could be smoother, not so many jagged edges. but overall you made a really great wp! :)" View

"I really like the colors of the bg and the small detail in it. the text is nice and the girl is cute. i don't mind the texture, but it makes the scan look "uncleaned".
hope you get more comments cuz you did a nice job on this one :)" View

"I like the scan you chose, she's cute :) you did a nice job on the extraction and blending. the bg isnt' too bad, a bit busy but otherwise it compliments the scan. not really a fan of the text, but that's not a big deal. you did a nice job :)" View

"I think you did a pretty neat job, the bg goes with the scan. i love the artist that did these scans (i'm working on a couple of the other ones as well), probably the best i've seen out of all the soulcalibur scans. if you use another one like that, i can't wait to see it! :)" View

"I think you did a really great job on that nebula, i'm a huge fan of space scenes (and i don't think the starfield is flat :P). i'm not a huge fan of the color of the planet but overall this looks awesome. nice work! :)
"I don't mind this wp, the vector style is neat. the white outline is a bit iffy but you did a great job using shapes. i'm not a big fan of mixing vector with realistic bg, something more edgy and basic colors like the vector might've been nice.
i think just the word 'destined' might look good. most fans would understand it. but i'm with you, the dbz section needs some more wps :)
(would that be season one-uncut? ;) i just finished season two!)" View
