What Programs are use to make these awesome walls

What Programs are use to make these awesome walls

Hi,

 

I am sort of a newbie and have always wondered what programs everyone uses here to make these amazing walls, screen-savers, ect...

I especially love the metallic look and swirling metal designs.  I am sure there are a few out there, but for a beginner, what would you recommend.

 

Thanks!  :grin:

If you install the creative suite that has Photoshop in it I believe. What you can do is go with CS5 extended to start. I did the trial but I could never afford the full version. Way too expensive for me. However... for those who can I say go for it. you will most definitely not be sorry. Photoshop has tons of tutorials at many different sites and I tried some of them. Now...if Photoshop can make me look good that's saying something. Its a super bang for the buck so enjoy it. Me...I use Photoshop 7, a golden oldie and I have a few others I like to play with.

The most important point, however is that programs do NOT make 'awesome walls'.....'awesome artists' make awesome walls.

Programs are simply the tools used....and have exactly no intrinsic talent of their own....

Case in point. My very first submission was a wall I made entirely in MSpaint. Took me three weeks to do one pixel at a time....almost. It actually made the gallery, I was so proud of it. Now I make one and I don't even have to worry about where its going. I had some good ones but walls aren't my thing.
