How can I make this wallpaper better?
Monday, November 10, 2003 by JM_Zen | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk
So how can I make my wallpaper more... submittable, as it were?
Don't bother sparing my feelings; just give me the straight poop! Thanks in advance, to anyone who replies.

I don't know any way to say this nicely, JM_Zen, but you basically need to aquire some graphic skills. Search on Google for tutorials using Photoshop or PaintShop Pro, or which ever program you have. And practice, experiment, go wild. Make 10, 20 wallpaper that you'll scrap and start over before you submit your first one.
Trying to get one wall better in hopes it'll get submitted will get you nowhere. Take the time to master some techniques. When you start being compfortable doing the things that you'd like to do with your graphic software, that's when you can start being creative, and using your new knowledge to make your own art. Then maybe you'll get one accepted here. But please, don't upload your practice material.

You don't suck, you are just starting to build a foundation is all, and taking your time and learning the skills and the things that work best for you with repetition and such will lend to creating a solid foundation.
really really

oh... something that always that was said to me many times growing up
: can't never did and quit never will :
stick with it, you've a desire or you wouldn't have started and you pretty much show in this thread
that your not flippant about learning

Online Tutorials, Magazines, Books, paper, pens and pencils, computer paint programs, editing software
