go to a local bookstore and scope out some art-books.   do yourself a favor and dl the documentary "helvetica".
hell pick up any magazine and scope pout the advertisements--   focus on the graphic design elements.

@mrdkreka- i am a firm believer that no more than 4 images should be present on a "collage".
think andy warhol "pop art" or in more modern terms brute's "kmfdm" artwork.   no more than 4 ever.
Watching that documentary is torture, it's so boring that my teacher fell asleep, while watching it with my class  ::)

I'm well aware that I used to many images, but I was making a point that it would look better to just make a collage, and I wasn't going to use more than 2sec on making it. However 4 images aren't really enough for some collages styles, and how will you create a collage with only 2 images?

PS does anyone know where the last one is from? I'd like to name it properly but not sure what it is...found it randomly online.

Strike Witches :)

I think every Anime fan should have that in their Bible :D

ugh, not every anime fan is male or into girls flying around in their panties.
As a female anime fan I retaliate to all these cute girls and panty shots with
 ....ShounenAi Wallpapers!!  :P

Those don't count as traps, sort of. First one (forgot the name) has both parts, if you get what I mean ;). Tomoko is Tomoki's female alter ego it's a complete gender-swap.

will you create a collage with only 2 images?

watched it in a class?   i certainly hope it wasn't an art class.  the documentary deals with typography which in my opinion is
challenging enough that most artistes/dabblers cannot get a proper grasp on it.  just go back and scope out the screenshots here.

on your wallpaper collage which was haphazardly assembled - where is the focus?  what's the point.  it's information overload.
or in layman's terms a poor design.  a collage does not make a good desktop design.  and your current wall looks like a trap.

At least I was nice enough to spoiler mine, so no one had to look. Now I need eyebleach (not really, i'll just ignore as I do most walls here) and it isnt' like you boys need to counter, much of this thread is all girl walls anyway. :P Believe me I could have posted much more interesting wall papers .  ;D

@mrdkreka thanks for source info, I can't read it much but I'll figure it out. ^_^
@Kurandoinu thanks for nice X one, I didn't have that.

No a trap is a guy that looks like a girl. Tomoko is a girl that's a guy that's transformed into a girl....yeah...
And don't ask why I'm bothered this much to try to explain, I don't even know myself.
