Very, very nice. I love it.

Many subtle artistic elements that work together to imbue the image with quiet strength, resolution, and drama.

Downloaded in 1920x1080. Thanks.


That has to be the most eloquently written compliment I've recieved. Ever. Kudos on the writing skills, my friend. ;)
.
i'd have to agree. so much so that i doubt you post that frequently in the halo 3 forum, im sure i wouldve noticed your posting straight away.

I agree to your agreeing. :P

Intellectual people are few and far between in the H3 Forum. You should post more often... make a few heads explode. ;)
First off, no, this isn't a quote tower. A quote tower contains 5 or more quotes; this merely has 4. *dodges banhammer swing*

I think you've already found that the general maturity level on all Bungie.net is unfortunately abysmal, the Halo 3 forum being worst. You'll also find that like minds attract one another; simply put, people abandon the cesspool of immaturity and web-hate and head for higher ground. Namely, private groups. Find the ones that you like, suit you best, help you most enjoy your activities on B.net, and flourish there.

I used to post quite a bit in the main forums. I achieved Heroic status and held it for some months, but I lost it. I looked at it not as a means to brag, but an immediate platform that attracts attention. You have a different color for your title bar, you garner slightly more notice. I used that and made my feeble individual attempts to spread reason out here, but I just gave it up. Private groups for me.

Oh, if you liked the review so much, embed the quote in your OP and people will see what others thought of your work. Provide both positive and negative feedback so people are most informed; you'll find they'll appreciate more your honesty rather than the expected puffery.

Best of luck either way.

I've found that certain resolution settings can/will cause PNG images to display off-color, or not display at all (like on my computer). Simply save the image as a JPEG, and you should be fine.

yeah, i can say you are the reason i spend so much time when i make a background. if it wasnt for you i probably wouldnt have even started using halo 3 to make fully edited/original wallpapers.


i say probably 'cause theres no doubt i wouldve done some simple/boring edits for friends. however i doubt i would have ever considered making wallpapers like i have.


Wow... that has to be the nicest thing anyone as said to me. :D

You have a gift, and it would've been a shame if it went underused. I can't wait to see what you create next!

Everything I've learned has been self-taught. Everything. I've never taken a class or read/watched a tutorial.

And from what I've gleaned from other artists, both professional and amateur, self-taught seems to be the most common and most successful method of artistic learning. ;)

Get your hands dirty, and ask for help only when you're completely stumped. My 2 cents.

Self-taught C# for over a year now. I know how it is, but... for photoshop, I was always getting confused with the definitions of the new words, I was familiar with "line" and such. Photoshop has "strokes" and such, so I was pretty confused at first.

I think thats the ONLY way to learn photoshop. I took a class for it and learned nothing, there was just too much information... Only by playing around with it will you be able to learn how to use it.

Btw, I failed that class, but by using it at least 2 hours a week for that 11 week class, I was able to gain a complete understanding and feel for all of the basic tools. Now I use it daily, and even bought a freakin $200 wacom tablet.

Also, for max/maya users, the cs4 photoshop has a new gismo which allows you to bring a 3d frame into a layer, and paint over it!! How freakin cool is that?!

I would kill for a tablet. But I don't think my piece-of-poo computer could even handle one. :P

That CS4 feature sound uber-cool. I don't know if I'd have any use for it... but I guess it's like owning a 500hp supercar: you'll never use all 500 horses, but it's nice knowing it's there. And it makes for fun bragging material. ;)
