Congrats on your 500th post there halutzparilla.

I can most definitely work on a black/red or black/blue scheme for you. Do you fancy it in the similar "configuration" as the one you have there now, or maybe something different?

Add me on MSN and we'll talk about it. That goes for anyone folks!

How about the new Sig/Avatar set?

I made it in honour of my name <TheBEAST> and because I'm really fond of that picture in it, I use it for all my avatar needs.

I like that wallpaper too, got a really neat cigarette smoke look to it. Where does that beast in your sig come from? Looks like Hank McCoy on crack.

LMAO you're a damn party in yourself.

It's the Dark Beast from the Marvel Comics. In a segment of the story something happens to Beast (originally blue, and not as cool a face) which makes him turn "evil" and black - WAY cooler than his normal Beast figure in my opinion.

Happy to hear you like the stuff!

Haha, ok, I never read X-men unless they're part of an event like House of M. I'm an avengers and spidey guy myself. I'll read em if Deadpool is rolling with em, Deadpool is the best.

Within Photoshop, there are "brushes".

There are many custom brushes you can find, and add to your brush collection with different designs and very good looking footprints. All my wallpapers are done with about 4-6 brushes (don't use any more) in COMPLETELY different ways each time. You can see through most of my walls the designs aren't very similar, except for the first few I did with the brushes to get used to them).

The thing is, it's all how you use the brushes and blend them together.

Also, if you want the brushes to be rather versatile, try to find the HIGHEST RESOLUTION BRUSHES YOU CAN! The ones I use don't dip lower than about 1000px, and the highest is well close to 2500px. These are of course expandable and contractible, and actually do hold quality quite well.

For example, the latest wall I posted "for blake", the orange "swooshes" on the top-left corner was a brush that's pretty much a line. Original res on that was about 300, and I bumped it to about 900, and it still looked smooth. Yes, I had to do some blending, but overall they're solid.

Don't get it confused; it's not just click the brush and bang. There is a lot of careful work in making sure they overlap well, and some blending you need to do sometimes (like the Blur Tool, Burn Tool, etc. which are needed often times).

It would be extremely ackward to have a tutorial for this, only because there are INFINITE methods at attacking it. It's not one set method like installing a CPU, or inserting RAM into a motherboard, etc. (for example, of course).

I'm glad you guys are enjoying them, and I'll add more as soon as I'm able to.

I'm working on one with ONLY the colours of the Indian flag in honour of my really close friend, and flag colours are quite popular for wallpaper schemes.

Thanks!

New sig/avatar...

Simplicity is best.

Fixed it up a little. Like how it matches perfectly with the little HL logo above it? 350px wide!

IMO the red is a bit too bright, I'm working on a v2 right now.

Ahh forget that. Sticking to my style - 500x75. Avatar is 75x75. The white wavy gradient works a lot better with 150 more pixels to the width. AND the red is fixed.

I was wondering about that little 350x10 automatic HL signature picture...is there a way to get rid of it if you have HL in your sig anyway? Or maiybe move it to the bottom or something?
