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?

Strike Witches

I think every Anime fan should have that in their Bible

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!!

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.

Havoc10K · « **Reply #6551 on:** December 31, 2010, 02:59:26 PM »

yeah well ok sure, but a trap is a trap, imagine some guy hitting on him when he is swapped, same with the guy from Kampfer and TLR2

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.

Believe me I could have posted much more interesting wall papers .

@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.

Havoc10K · « **Reply #6555 on:** December 31, 2010, 03:33:48 PM »

but honestly, I used word TRAP in second spoiler cuz that was the trap, not the picture hahahah

putting that aside, I haven't seen any decent Durarara Celty wallpaper in a while...
