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.
":D It looks good as a vector but I loved the 'age effect' done via textures. Instant fave!" View

"NICE indeed. Since you said you took out some techy stuff in the bg, I'm thankful for that since the wallpaper looks good enough as it is. I liked how you arranged the elements -- they complement each other nicely and don't distract attention. Definately fave-ing this. " View

"Well, it looks good enough w/o the scattered drawings... well to me anyway. The drawings seem to distract my attention away from the subject. Besides that, the colours and the effects used are good and they complement each other and the subject. Definate fave." View

"Upon comparing the wall and the original scan, I find your work is different from the original but a wonderful tribute to the original scan. The colours and the many overlay layers are pleasing to the eye and not distracting from the foreground art. Overall: amazing." View

"Wow, I love what you did with this. I must say putting Wolfwood in white against blue is kinda, going against the norm you know? (Because Wolfwood is usually depicted in blue.) It sorta gives the viewer a fresh take on the character. The details added to the cross is my fave part of the wall. That's a really funky design." View

"OMG. That pretty much sums up what anyone needs to say about this. If anyone told me this was vector, I'd tell they're off their rocker... upon closer inspection, it's vectors but done magnificently. I'm fave-ing this eventho Lodoss is not of my fave titles, I'm fave-ing this because it's that good. Can't wait to see more from you." View

"Just because I love Dogs, this wall gets an instant squee to me XD
Besides that I love the loneliness feeling you're able to bring out in this piece. Awesome work on the bg; is it a stock photo? Drawn art? Another that I love is the muted colors of the sky and landscape.. good job." View

"This wallpaper caught my eye but upon looking at it closer, the blur effect on Rukia looks a lit weird.. considering the bg itself is free of blur effects. some improvements; like everyone said, the text needs fixing and go easy on the blur effect; it makes Rukia's outlines stands out even more.

a very apt name indeed :D The way the pastel colours are muted and blend together are lovely... paired with the happy calm pic of Kagura in the front, it makes for a pleasant wp." View

"Very powerful piece. Although upon looking at the high res, I realize Kaname seems to 'float' above the bg. Never mind, the effects you did for the rain and falling/splashing across the roof is what take makes me go @.@ Very well done." View

"Just me ranting about the source img; it's most probably are Ritsu and Kureno, since Takaya is fond of doing pictures where the zodiac animals are paired, according to their order. She did Rin & Hiro (horse --> goat) and Hiro & Ritsu (goat --> monkey). Ritsu & Kureno should be next (monkey --> rooster).
Plus, the zodiac pictures always have the characters dressed in fantasy-oriental clothes. And Uo-chan's a lighter blonde when compared to Ritsu whose hair leans towards to the orange hue.
But, it's nice to see how you changed that pic and editted it to be a Uo x Kureno piece. Lovely work on the feathers. " View
