My second try

[elfenstein]

Hi everyone,

here is my second try at wallpapers. I personally like them much better then my last ones.

Again designed for use on a dual monitor set-up.

Still appreciating any feedback. http://animeforum.com/images/smilies/tongue.gif

P.S.: I know that I should only post one wallpaper per thread. But since these are essentially the same wallpapers with only the images swapped i hope you don't mind. http://animeforum.com/images/smilies/in_awe.gif

grids!! and boxes!! <3 <3

I think that overall it is a decent wallpaper. Good composition, colors, and flow.

Nice colors and composition.

In the second one, the green-haired girl's sock fades into nothing, which is weird, and the left edge of the blond-haired girl's hair looks like it fades into nothingness.

It might be more interesting if you mirror-imaged one of the wallpapers.

Hi everyone,

thanks for your feedback.

I'm glad you liked it a bit. http://animeforum.com/images/smilies/tongue.gif I think these are my best works up to now. Well, from 8 wallpapers totally made, so that's nothing to brag about. :)

I really like grids and boxes in a wallpaper design. Again, that's a matter of personal taste, but I think it looks clearer and more ... hmm ... balanced that way. I don't think that I can properly convey what I mean.

The fading at the left side is because the raw image ended there. Right in the middle of her leg. And an abrupt end looked worse, in my opinion. Do you have a suggestion how I could have solved that in any other way?

And what did you mean with mirroring? Putting the characters on the left side on one of the wallpapers? I think I could try that. But then it would confict with the shortcut placement on my desktop. That's why I chose the placement is it is.

Cya,

Elfenstein.

Cute girls, is that an actual anime or just random girls?

On the second one, I think that the fading of the blond girl's hair could is not really neccisary, or at least not as strong.

I think the images are from an actual anime or manga.
Sadly I don't know its name and I can't remember or find the site where I found the pictures.

As to the fading:
as I stated above, the picture just ends there, right in the middle of the blonde's hair or the foot of the green haired girl. And having an abrupt end looked even worse. So I faded it out a bit.
