Here are some pretty cool wallpapers I made in less than 5 minutes. Even though they are not complex, they look very cool (to me at least). They only involve making random lines around the image and using the smudge tool. Let me know what you think.

Sorry for the big size :)

My favorite:

Pretty cool looking. Very dark and night-like.

These things are fun to play with :D. For example, I tinkered with your second image for a few minutes and came out with this (some randomization and added layers):

Bah, not enough colors and looks a little too tiled. Still, nice idea.

Yea but it takes like 5 minutes. I wasnt aiming to create some image to go into a contest or anything...just something simple and cool looking. Or are you talking to overconfidence?

Btw the image looks really cool overconfidence

Can you right click and save image as? :P

Ohemgee, and I just made another awesome looking quick one (Which one's better?). They're both pretty small, but that's at 14.4% size, since I made 'em at 300 DPI 8.5x11. Not quite desktops but could be.

3 seconds to set to it after randomly picking one in the pre-givens that comes with ClosedDoor XP.

I like einCe's so much, that I decided to adapt it for my own uses....I won't use a dark wallpaper, so I .5 minuted coverted it to a much lighter variant.

now if someone can tell me why imageshack considers that pr0n and won't let me upload, let me know

"now if someone can tell me why imageshack considers that pr0n and won't let me upload, let me know"

Just like they won't accept shampoo bottles or balloons?

And I love einCe's too.

DDR Freak is a joke. If you remember Devilon from BStyle, I live about 15 mins from him, he's a very good friend of mine. He's in basic training right now in Georgia though. :]

Made this during my cancelled ECON class....each part took no more than 5 minutes :D

I can't say I can make anything from scratch, I can only manipulate and combine (this was 4 [maybe 5] separate source images that really looked nothing like this to begin with :D).
