I was wondering what you guys (or gals) thought of these desktop wallpapers I made today while I was bored. They're o.k. I guess. http://www.theblt.com/portfolio.php

Very nice! The blue one is now my background... goes well with my Winamp skin

Thanks. I'm glad you like it.

Pretty cool effects theblt! Good job

What did you use to make them?

Just Photoshop 7. As to how I made them, that's my secret...

Nice backgrounds. Good job!

nice job. VIVA PS7 :P

Well, just for the fun of it I made 3 more you can check out. But don't judge a book by it's cover. I mean, don't judge a wallpaper by it's thumbnail. I don't know why I made them so small, but some of them are hard to see unless you really look at the file, not just the thumbnail.

Awesome backgrounds. I'm really impressed.

Where did you get the skills to do them?

I really want to learn to do cool graphics like these using Photoshop or Fireworks.

I learned how to do that stuff by just experimenting around with Photoshop's little effects. Try messing around with rendering clouds and stuff. And play around with the radial zoom and the glow edges.

I have been playing around with Photoshops effects. No end to what you can do! Seeing your backgrounds made me decide to give it a try.
