My Noir Wallpaper

The Great Conspiracy · 10-25-2003, 11:31 AM

This thing is a "Noir" - wallpaper i created a while ago. As usual the outcome is a whole lot different from what i wanted it to look like <_<, but i think it's quite nice.

Just tell me what you think about it, but be gentle :P

It's pretty good, lots of nice elements! But it looks more like a bg for a wallpaper as there is no real focus to it.

Nice job though, the tech is cool!

i'd have to agree with diablo, it's really good but it lacks a focus (which isn't necisarily a bad thing) maybe bring a picture into the foreground or something like that.

It's really cool, but rather unfinished... It needs a subject picture... Just look for one that you think would look good with that background, and if needed, use a blue monotone like you did on the whole wallpaper.
Besides that, the background is really cool :)

i personally thinks it kicks major arse. Ya know how often people ask for plain backgrounds? simple way to get more focus... see that circle design thing to the left of the font? Try making it black/grey-toned instead of black. See if that adds some focus.

Thanks for your replies! I'm really glad about your positive reaction

Concerning the missing focus:
I haven't intended to add a real focus on this one, to keep it more decent, but if you suggest to do so, I'll try to.

_hades the wicked · 10-26-2003, 09:24 AM

Yeah, it's cool that you used the right style with the right kind of character :) Like a mix between good elements.

The Great Conspiracy · 10-26-2003, 11:21 AM

I've just replaced the original attachement with a new version of my wallpaper. Please tell me if you like this one better.

I hope I didn't make it worse

!

_hades the wicked · 10-26-2003, 11:28 AM

This new version is better than the old one. It's really cool, nothing else to change I'd say :)

eeh but looks like the extraction at the big kirika is kinda messy.
try to fix it, other than that it's so kick donkey and i dont need focus! XD

Well, the background is cool, but I think it has a little too much on it. It's too busy. You also need to work on the extract of Kirika a little better. If you want the original where I got that Kirika pic, I'll give it to you and you can make you're own extract and doctor the pic to take all the Hirigana and little designs off of it.

The Great Conspiracy · 10-26-2003, 12:17 PM

I've replaced the wallpaper with the newest version where I took care of the extraction matter. I think it's better now.
