After months of work, chanelqueen17 has created a gorgeous scene of Alice and Oz from Pandora Hearts, using scans that didn't even feature both characters together. Even after spending so much time on matching the details of the characters to their new looks, chanelqueen17 didn't stop there and went all out on the background too! This wallpaper definitely needs to be seen!

Buying a laptop

2 years 4 months ago

"Do you have a price limit?

4gb ram laptops are somewhat rare right now unless you buy a huge 17"-20" laptop which is hard to lug around since it is 8+ pounds. I'm assuming you're going to be carry it around campus so it might be really tiring. Some people decide to get a separate hand carried bag for the laptop.

My laptop has 2gb ram and when i first boot it up, 27-30% of the ram is gone already. I'm assuming its Vista since I'm not really running anything. So its safe to assume that vista takes at least 500mb of your ram.

Also, try to stay away from AMD cores. My computer gets really hot even though its in standby mode and I think its the AMD core. In terms of performance, Intel and AMD are about the same but AMD seems to overheat on me quite a bit.

I don't think wireless is an issue since most laptops have wireless now. Another options for wireless and Bluetooth and Infrared(useless in my opinion). Bluetooth is also somewhat rare on laptops right now but I'm pretty sure the Macbook has one.

Understanding Tags

AND PLEASE PEOPLE DON'T ACT RETARDED AND TAG EVERY WALL WITH NARUTO!!!

That's one of the problems with tags. Although tags is a great idea and makes a certain type of wallpaper easier to find, it is also very vulnerable to be exploited. Ever since Youtube got tags, some people just wrote as many tags as they could think of to get more exposure. Is AP going to create rules against abusing tags?"

i think it's fine..i think maybe just make a better one to make up for it. but not bad enough to remove it


I'm sure i could have done better *Clicky* Problem is I don't have time to fix it right now and I don't it to be in the rotation. It's emabarrasing =P I'll work on it after my exams and hopefully make it into round 4. If I don't then maybe round 5? =P"

Can i submit this? Please help...

"Hmm..I think the buildings look a little bit flat. Lower the opacity of the farther buildings with the sky behind it. Closer bulildings lower a bit of opacity or not at all. I've been told by some people that blurring the farther buildings adds perspective. It doesnt work for me or I can't do it but you can try it."

need some comments before submission

3 years 5 months ago

"I like the attempt at a splistic background but the character quality of the character doesnt match. As Blu3 said, its a bit grainy. If you have the patience, you can try vectoring it to match the style o f the background. If you don't know how to vector, this would not make for an easy vector. The text for the analysis is kind of hard to read too. Also, the box that include her name and info seems to be a bit too long for the length of text. The other two boxes fir the text perfectly which makes the one with the name unfitting."

it the new series karas good or what?

"I've watched the first three episode too and I must say that this is one of the most overlooked anime out there. Although the graphics do impress me, the storyline is what I'm hooked on. The storyline reveals more and more as it goes. For example, in episode 3,
SPOILER (click to view)
. Those who are still deciding if it's worth seeing or not, if you want a good storyline, then go watch it. I think the budget for this show is considerably high too."

god guys how can you freaking compare a moe show with a gundam serie. Give me a break.


Easily. Have you watched the last episode? Have you watched Gundam Seed Destiny 35 when

? There was one particular scene in that episode that looked strangley coincidental. Dark thing with huge sword stabs thing with wings in the abdomen."

Hm... you do know that the bar at the top was put into the PSD so that you could tell where the bar was. Or are you just increasing the opacity of the bar?"

Surprise Wall

3 years 7 months ago

"I like the concept and the colours. The thing that's bugging me is the landscape(mainly the ground). The ground looks so realistic in comparisno to the character and the grave. Also, the mist seems to be too evenly distributed. The farther the mist is, the more concentrated it sould be. So when it's at the trees, it should almost be opaque."

Sasuke vs. Naruto

"Sasuke is better than Naruto in my eyes because he has the coolness factor. He has the curse seal as well as Chidori. Naruto seems to just get worse and worse because he uses the same moves too often and makes up useless moves like Naruto Rendan (Sexy no jutsu is NOT one of the useless moves xD)."

Yami to Boushi to Hon no Tabibito Wallpaper

3 years 8 months ago

"Pretty good for a first wall. i noticed the the scan was a bit dirty. If you want to fix it, here's how you do it:
1-Duplicate the layer
2-Gausian blur 1.0px of the new layer
3-Change the blending mode. Just try out and see what blening mode looks best. Overlay and Screen give that 'surreal' look.

The bottom left of the tattered cape has a bit of bad extraction. Same with the top right of the tattered cape. I can still see a bit of the white on the edges of the cape.

The backgound looks a bit plain. Maybe you could add some text on the left or brush things to help your character blend in better."

Sousei no aquarion

"I watched the anime and stopped at around episode 12 becaues it got kind of boring. beginning of the anime showed potential but it slowly dragged away from the story. After a while, one episode had no relation to the next and it became Power Rangers. The guy who sits in the command center while the others fight knows exactly how to train each person jsut in time for the next fight which gets repetitve after a while. Also, the episode always starts out as the good guys losing and then winning after they remember what they were taught during training in that episode. "

Ouch, seriously seriously busy wall. Very good as art, but I'm not sure I'd actually use this for my desktop, I'd have some trouble finding my icons. Good vectoring work, my suggestion is to lose the logo in the bottom right hand corner, it really isn't necessary and doesn't fit too well with the rest of the wall. Good luck!


Hm...I wasn't really intending it to a wall(although I said it in the description =P). It's just the reight dimensions for the wall. I'll take off the logo in the next version.

Hiya hongrboi
or is that hungryboy? ;-) well I would have to concur, this is seriously one busy wallpaper? and might need a little bit of simplifying to finish it off. If I add this to desktop then the shortcuts almost get lost, or in the least they are alot harder to find. So maybe what you could do without loosing too much of your work is to moake some the the solids you have in here without all the patters inside. the first thing I think you can do that with, without loosing too much quality is too sand/khaki coloured background, just a single colour. the same goes with the green patters in bottom, they could probably also get away with being single colour. Well I could go on about how to make it simpler but the only other thing I would mention is to take away the starfield you have overlayd on all the black. But not sure how much of the effect you wanted, will be lost by doing that. In any case over all I really like it. the bird really remind me of that whole Japanese ancient scropt thing. Hope this helps

Cheers
KarimB


Again, I wasn't intending this to a wall. More like art. Would your opinion change if this was not for a wall?

About your suggestions, what do you mean by the sand/khaki coloured background? Are you talking about the purple background? And I guess I could take off tha pattern on the green pattern on the umbrellas too. I put it there to try to empasize the style anyways. And what's wrong with the starfield? Again, trying to elaborate on the style more instead of filling with solid colour.


chibicrystal
wow! i really love the rich colors and the design. i think the reason it feels busy is because of the bg. i say scrap the bg all together, keep it plain (the patchy brown part, the rest is fine). of course you would have to see what it looked like but maybe just make it plain white or a light cream. really nice work! :)


Hmm..regarding the background. I just did that to follow the original design of the scan. I've uploaded the original scan here(in case anyone wants to see): http://img402.imageshack.us/my.php?image=copyof09september7np.jpg"
