Description It's been awhile since I actually designed and submitted a desktop wallpaper design. So i thought what the heck.
I got really grungy with this one and did a lot of painting with some brushes. It's formatted for a 1280 x 1024 screen (cuz that's what i use )
enjoy.

i don't use them that often, only because i think that they are a bit of trendy whoreis cliche kind of thing. they just seemed to work with the grungy feel of this wallpaper.

The glow of the lightbulb is lovely. The scratches, torn marks are a nice touch too. Well it is a trademark of yours

Nice one!

I think this is not a deviation that deserves so much views and so much favs... !
U have just money and u r a subscriber and u get views and pageviews....
You are buying your views....i think it's not fair....
I'm sure this deviation didn't take u up to 10 mins....and other deviants who work for hours to do something great and detailed..they just don't get views cuz they r not subscribers...

Sry

Don't have a problem with u but with DA about the fact that all users aren't promoted the same......

Obviously you do have a problem with me. Noone forced you to look at this deviation. Noone made you click the link. Yes I have a lot of pageviews, but did you take the time to look at my gallery? did you take the time to get to know me? I am a very humble person who takes that time to thank and correspond with everyone that faves, visits or leaves a comment. My subscription has nothing to do with it.
Yes, this deviation was just something fun that I created. It didnt take hours. Did you take the time to look at the rest of my gallery? You are right this image did take a short time to create. you want to know why? because I have a strong foundation in design and I am self taught when it comes to photoshop. How dare you good Sir accuse me of such things.
quite honestly all i see in your gallry is a 16yo trend whore who creates fractal images. wow.

hexocain [2005-11-04 13:53:11 +0000 UTC]

I love your style. But why does it have to say stuff about creative expression when there's a lightbulb there? I figure the picture says it on its own.

gregoriousone In reply to hexocain [2005-11-04 19:01:33 +0000 UTC]

thanks.
while I certainly agree that the lightbulb in itself helps support that notion, i decided to put in there because I specifically designed that wallpaper for my desktop for my new studio space. Sometimes a little reinforcement doesnt hurt.

Grungetastic!
It's been a while since I've seen this type of grunge done well.
I recognize the brushes too :-]

Nicely done.

gregoriousone In reply to cogwurx [2005-11-03 19:59:23 +0000 UTC]

thanks cogs. There is a lot of grunge out there. unfortunately some of it is just poorly designed.
I usually try and use brushes in a way that makes them a bit harder to recognize, but in this case i thought 'oh what the hell!'

Way impressive, man. I really like it overall, but probably what I like the most is the design you choosed. Makes the light bulb stand out in a nice way. And I can't forget to say that I love the grungy feel to it .
Excellent work!

thank you kindly. I've had the photo of that lightbulb for a few months and have been trying to find a home for it.
it's been a little while since i really grunged things up like this...

if i werent so easily distracted and so not-at-all open to change, i would let this decorate my desktop.

but i prefer neutral grey all the way

I totally understand Ikhon, I figured since I just moved my office into a new room in the house it was time to freshen up the desktop as well.

i love your work so much!

it's such a classic symbol, but it's oh so new and shiny in my eyes because of the way in which you present it.

fantastic.

thank you kindly clav. this was a nice little diversion to work on. it's been awhile since i actually just painted with brushes in photoshop. instead of sampling and manipulation lots of elements from lots of sources.
