at least I don't make any pretenses at acting like an artist, I am only deviously annoying. And now I shall use this wallpaper made by a real artist!

Amusing, but I strongly disagree with the typed message, although, I suppose irony was the true message you were implying... or so I hope.

Either way, nice technique.

Conexion [2004-06-03 15:07:10 +0000 UTC]

Hmm.. great design and typography. Hardly agree with the statement though. Wallpaper'ing is as much of an art as any other... many just lack the skill to do as such. Rather ironic though... Maybe I should take my "great design and typo" comment back if it isn't art... but meh .

mmmm, 1600x 1200 resolution, that would be perfect as a WALLPAPER on my computer

just kidding,

nice 3d work, brushed metal is a really nice and simple effect. . .

decided not to give you a comment cause you already had so many... oops.

anyway good work on the lighting and the idea...

...question though... does this mean that wp people, if not real artists, are imaginary artists?

i've got a real case of self-doubt hehe

DivineError In reply to ??? [2004-05-11 09:04:27 +0000 UTC]

i dont actually intent my art to be wallpapers when i make them, its jsut i love to render at such high resolutions as 1600x1200 or higher, i just dont think most people would think of it as digital art rather a wallpaper

i like the way the text is layed out, and the rendering is very nice

The day art makes a statement is the day it dies.
The day an artist makes a self-referential(why am i taking time out of my day to respond to you is beyond me)"piece" is the saddest day of eternity.... Keep it up, and you'll be moving on to invent the next plastic singing fish...

Well actually, either that or you aren't a real artist! Which, well, I wouldn't agree upon.

technique and design are great.

As for the statement - I would love to hear your definition of a 'real' artist or your definition of 'real' art.

I dont know why, but I like this piece. I kind of agree with you. That's why I don't really consider myself an artist, I just like to play in Photoshop.

If you're ever bored, do you wanna do a wallpaper kinda like this that says "stubborn people suck"? I think there are a lot of stubborn people in the art community and it would probably get a cool response . I'd do it, but I think you'd do a better job . Just an idea though.

Again, cool wallpaper, especially since it WAS done by an artist.

ahhh if noone made wallpapers then what would we all do. We would have any new and exciting wallpapers for our computers. I believe some of the best deviations ive seen have been wallpapers. Therefor i disagree!

They don't submit their work to DeviantART either. What we get here is talented designers and illustrators, which is nice in some ways.
