I like the last one too.

Tips:
Remove as much color around the Heidi pic and add a drop shadow (if you wanna see what I mean, send me the original and I'll work it up).

One of the things that makes a pic stand out is the "focal point".
Basically, you make the background image focus on the image you want to be prominent (which would be Heidi, I imagine)... so you make the rest of the pic "flow" towards her.

This is an excellent example of a focal point...

You can see how the image draws you to the focal point...

Heh... I'm getting long-winded... I guess you can tell I was a visual arts major in high school... :D

Just some suggestions... ;)

OK, let's get some things straight.

First off, that wasn't my computer room. I have no idea where Taz found that pic, but my guess would be that it is a college student's livingroom/bedroom. The dead giveaway would be that there is obviously a big backdoor to a porch/deck/outside and my room is on the second floor. I wonder if it came from that article on that one college dorm that got condemned cuz it was so messy? Also, I have MUCH MORE stuff than in that pic and my room is about a quarter of the size. :D

Secondly, Taz, I really like the first of those three different desktops that you posted. It is rocking! But, I don't know how you would ever get anything done with that one on.... :p :)

ICE is correct, its not his room but it does belong to my Niece who was 19 or 20 at the time. She actually slept in there on the couch. I took that PIC about 4 years ago during Thanksgiving. My sister got tired of trying to make her cleanup so she told her to keep the door closed. I took the dare and opened it. ICE's room isn't to far off from that PIC with clutter but atleast you can see his floor. LOL :lol:

I will try a few things on the WP today and let ya know how it worked out.

Taz, where'd you find that desktop? At StephenKing.com?

[edit]
I guess not. It looks like someone (ahem, you maybe?) scanned that in. Nice!

I did a Search on Google. Don't search for King search for the Artist Michael Whelan. I found some nice ones and resized them to wallpaper.

TAZ might be old but he isn't dead... I have more kids then most & fortunately for me they belong to other people. I havbe watched so many kids grow up its a shame, just makes me realize how old I really am.
My close friend at work has 3 kids and they were into every new FAD that ever came out.. Suppose I should post another Desktop..
