Okay, so I suck. Well I'm glad someone finally told me.

Alright. This is great feedback, and I'm getting a consistant response: more colours and depth. I'll get on it, and see if that will be accepted.

why the money sign$? I'm glad you asked. I know it might look a little tacky, but the whole point was the capture a visual of "trick down" economics. Not that I understand the theory in any way, but this is the image it conjures up. That is why there are $ signs. <img src="http://images.stardock.com/images/smiles/smile.gif" border=0 AL

Thanks for the input, guys, I'll convert it to JPEG now, as well. By the way, I thought of adding more colours and depth, but I lack the skill to pull that sort of thing off consistantly. Any tips for a n00b?

Hi, I'm looking for some general feedback on my wallpaper. I created it about a week ago, and submitted it soon thereafter. Sadly, it was rejected, despite my high hopes. No offence intended to the fine folks running wincustomize - they have to go through a lot of wallpapers, and I understand, only the best will do.

Thanks for the suggestion.

Any Wallpaper Requests? in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

I want to submit a wallpaper (which I'll be doing in Photoshop) later on, and I'm just lacking in ideas. So, I was wondering... does anyone have a request - or suggestion? I'm not that particularly talented, so no guarantees on it getting past moderation, but I'll give it my darndest.
