Here it is at last: A wallpaper of my favorite character, Drizzt DoUrden. I suspect that I've told you a lot about him already so I won't bother telling you about him unless someone asks. It turned out better than I expected despite the problems that came up. You might notice that some of the images are cut off or some parts are missing. That's the price for using images directly from books I guess. And on the central left image shows some ugly scan marks. I've tried to cover it up the best I could without distorting it too much. Other than that, I would consider this my best wallpaper yet. If you remember my Drizzt signature, then you should recognize the image on the top right. I used some blur effects to conceal the cut off part of the image. What do you think? The background of this is just an inverted cave picture to give it an ice look, and the effects complimenting it are essentially lens flares with multiple distortions and artistic effects. Reno, if you had to chose only 1 of my wallpapers to put on the main site, then I would recommend that you use this one.

Well, well, you finally churned another one out. I will begin by saying that perhaps your "Jarlaxle: True Vision Forums" is a tad on the large size, almost looks like it was meant to be part of the wallpaper. Still, it will prevent (Or at least impede) theft without due credit, I suppose. The wallpaper itself is good, your best, though there isn't a great deal to compare that to. I like the blur on the top-right image and your two choices for central images. Having one central image larger than the other worked surprisingly well, since the one on the right hides his face, and is therefore more in the background. Normally I would say that the background might need more effects, but not so much with this one. From what little I know of the character, the ice cave works well. The only other finger I could point could be that the rest of the setup might be a bit too simple--one image in each of the four corners, but that somehow works well enough as well. Perhaps, though you could have moved the top-left image and switched its position with the bottom-left, since Drizzt and his cat are standing in mid-air, for lack of a better word--it might have worked better if that one was placed on the bottom. Other than that, this one was very well done. 8.7/10

I like the wallpaper, it turned out good, for all the complaining about finding images and ice effects, ect.
Overall, it turned out great, the left center image is a bit blurred but its still great.
And just a note, you do relize that I will be watermarking the author and such before I upload the wallpapers to the main site anyhow?
Anyway, 8.5/10.
