      Unless you made the tutorial on that a long time ago, and just starting to show it off now ... You're passing a tutorial off as your own work. =/

        i dont get what your saying...I made it myself, I have the PSD file, and each layer I used, just cause it looks "Similar" it doesnt mean i stole it, I have made lots of things that look similar, I even made a Music Vid for a game someone thought i stole till they watched the other one again and saw that it was totally diff, i dunno how to prove it but to put the psd file up, but I dont wanna do that, post that image u thought I "stole" cause I never have seen a tutorial on it, I had to figure out how to completly do this on my own, I have looked for tutorials to make things like this for months

          Back off PDM.
          Nice image, I don't like the text, and maybe a different colours, but overall it's pretty good :lol: .

            I didn't even see the text till agatio mentioned it.

            Good image though!

              I just find text, unless it's subtle, a distraction on wallpapers, I'd rather a big graphic that a graphic witha title, or noticable text.

                        Naw, I just mean if those lines were moving like they were alive, like waves or something, like a passing cloud, you know...

                          Yeah, but then you have to double or triple the filesize, or it would just lose quality (gif = 256 colours). Maybe a flash.

                            Simple serif or sans-serif text, and small at that, is the best for wallpapers. Avoid fancy fonts.

                            Now, one of the problems I have is there's no strong point of interest. Monochromatic can be good sometimes, but usually there will be something with a contrasting look to the rest of the image to make it stand out. I'm not seeing that.

                            It's pretty decent otherwise. I think you should try and increase the impact of the render, by either trashing the blend, or just changing the color.
