Is it just me, or has the quality of Wallpapers dramatically decreased?
Saturday, December 13, 2003 by mattboy | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk
This site used to be the first site I visited if I wanted to get a really cool, good looking wallpaper to spruce up my desktop. Well, sadly it has become one of the last places I visit. I don't want the artists to take offense to anything I say (they probably will anyways), but it's just not the same anymore. It's the same cliched designs over and over. Ever since this site became more leniant in their filtering, it's been downhill. I'd like to hear your opinion.

yeah... it would probably have made it if the pink was more arround the screen, like the whole screen filled with pink.
The 3ds max render with the after effecting in photoshop ruined it...

a whole pink screen. Man you are a genius. How come nobody ever thought of that before. It'd be the worlds greatest wallpaper.

lol don't feel bad - 3/4 of my stuff gets rejected promptly - thereby keeping the trash out..
I disagree, not even most of the stuff here is junk - it's all relative.

Yes, a year ago I remember...
We had a bunch of high quality (not to say that there arent any good ones out there now) artists...Now adays... I dont look at the wallpaper section as much as I used to, nor am I as excited as I once was when I saw there was a new submission... Things have changed...
As I see it, it takes less talent...less skill...less work to get a submission in... Its not as admirible as it once was. While some people will be dissappointed when they see their submission was cut, that will give them incentive to try harder...and thereby increase the quality of their submissions...and the number of downloads from the hundreds to the thousands.

Which is more artistic? The Mona Lisa, or a paint splat?
True, both can be considered 'art' but I think we both know which we'd rather see on display.
