Description All the other countries know about American's little problem. It is called greed (and waste). I just "tried" to represent this idea in a wallpaper. Please tell me what you think...

[Zip file includes a 1024x768 and 800x600 size wallpaper, send me a note if you need a smaller or bigger size.]

Update: Thanks to Jynxter for telling about my error on the hand, I fix it. If anyone sees anything else let me know...

I see more and more hands in walls. Maybe because it takes little effort to plop ones hand on top of the scanner and hit the button. But unlike many of the other walls that use hands, I think this one makes use of it in a meaningful way. Its a great looking wall.
Concerning the artist's comments: prosperity almost inevitably brings greed - that seems to be human nature. But there are many prosperous nations and rulers, therefore the U.S. is not alone in its greedy behavior. But greed is really not a nations problem, its a problem of individual behavior.
Whether one agrees with your statement or not, atleast your art makes a statement unlike so many other pieces.

l3vi, I don't know if you ever go back and read the comments you left, but you seem to be ahead of me on leaving them, but so far I have agreed with 97% of your comments. just thought you'd like to know, lol. anyway, I think you should touch up the hand a bit, like don't let the ring finger show through, overlap the flag more, know what I mean? just a suggestion. nice work.

Hey man, this is a nice compostion. Maybe it won't be astonishing, but I like very much the fact that people cares to express through Digital Art and not just make silly eye-candy, which may look overwhelming or very awesome.

Great theme.

Thanks for sharing your work.
