i guess i'm looking for a sort of blend. i like your paler works but could it be a little darker? basically, just go wild with it. do whatever you think will work with the images i provided. i haven't been able to make a decent wallpaper myself with these images and was getting frustrated. :3 umm a quote maybe, doesn't need to be placed in the wallpaper: Beauty, comes in all kinds of ways. actually, i'm not sure about that quote. i had a better one.

Anyways if you can do this that would be great.
Sorry for the lengthy comment. :3

Actually I'd be very interested in seeing a 1280 x 1024 wallpaper sized version of this request.

I'm absolutly loving Olivia Wilde atm :D

Oh, oh. I feel terrible saying this. o.X My resolution is 1024x768. Um.. changes possible? As in, just stretching it till 1024? :S Otherwise, it wouldn't look so bad if I just put another colour behind it all yes? And then maybe center everything?

I'm so so sorry? Should have mentioned it before. If there is a problem with changing it now, it's alright, leave it the way it is. :) Either way, I adore it, and I LOVE YOU ;D

Hm, indeed you should have mentioned it before :) I'm sorry honey, but I can't just change it like that, I'd have to start all over again. Art can't just be "stretched", you know? Really sorry. I did however, adjust your background so it fits the header exactly, previous one was a little off, sorry bout that. And I added a hex colour table, so you can code your layout and center it. If you use the main background colour as the background for your page, it should look okay.

wow, thats really beautiful...i love how you made him look like hes glowing, did you just blur the picture to get that effect?...

and do you think, this might be asking a little much but im just throwing this out there, you could make a tutorial for how you add those boxes around the images because you told me you dont use brushes and id love to learn how you make that effect...

I did use brushes for this one:
http://asunder.deviantart.com
The boxes were done with the marquee tool and the p.lasso tool, then I created several borders around the image itself, set to several modes (color burn and overlay most likely). I then wanted a bit more grunge, so I masked out parts of the borders using those brushes, and other grunge/sketchy brushes :)

Thanks hun, glad you like. For the glow, go to http://touchstonesart.com - she has the best tutorials on that one :)

Hey, you need to choose "browse" and then select "brushes". And I use PS, always have. I'm no use with PSP ;)
