@[XBOX]BigAFair:::Sorry but I dislike them. Just doing multiple filters from photoshop isn't considered "art" in my opinion. I see some of those have a 3D look to them. Go from that and make it special to you. In my mind when you belive you have achieved art that is when you should look for others comments.

On another note, I created this. Not really ready to release it as a wallpaper, I'm not satisfied yet.. but I demonstrate on mine. The smaller pic was the stock photo and I wanted the focus from the warthog so I started my layering and editing then I thought "that looks horrible" so I scraped it. Started over and right as I began my brushing I delted part of his ass, thinking "his ass isn't that big, didn't crop it right" After I was done brushing I saw that the stock photo had a big ass on the MC...so I wasn't gonna scrap it again so I just repasted his ass. If you see the white line on the MC it was there to start with. I just didn't notice it. THe brushing is alot more detailed then it looks but ohwell that 20 minutes alone won't be noticed.

So comments are appreciated.

P.S.- With halo WP's. I always start with a 1600x1200 then scale them down to make smaller WP's...and this one is about 1.7Mb in PNG Format. My WP size is 1152x864 but I scaled the pic down to 800x600 to be kind to my bandwith.

Yeah I do that for some reason, I always leave the winamp playing when I take a pic...

Listen man I'm not trying to put you down. Just I don't like them because they don't have something to be emphasized on. A focus to the image.

Yep. Added for comical flavor. :D
No offense, but the Navy isn't a comical thing. It is serious. The thing the SEALS do, I mean, they are the coolest. :|

Uh....Yeah, yeah that IS a good font. Number three was the best of all I think. It looks like texts from Halo. Man, I wish I was 16 in 2552.

What about a cool little theme...."Halo, Where were you in 2552?"
(my idea) 8)
