    Interesting, I sort of have the same feelings about wallpapers as you. I keep mine simple too but mostly I do mine like I do so the icons don't get lost in the clutter. If you want I can post an image of mine.

    OK you asked for it. You might not like it but I so. Actually I make all my wallpapers with a large black background like this one. The image is slightly off center because of I keep most icons on the left, a few on the right but not many. I am posting one clean and one populated so you can hopefully see why I do what I do.

    Here's a Haloween drawing of been working on. The top left looks a bit empty but I need the space for some text.

    Here's the grass brushes I used in the above image. It uses 3 brushes with various line widths & randomisation.

    Love the space theme Also leaving the edges blank for the icons is almost a necessity imo.

    Looks like a lot of work especially the renderings. I have been paying a visit to a local Tibetan temple here in Toronto and was looking at the "postcards" in the gift shop and considered how much work must have gone into them. Quite an undertaking.

    Since there is the word 'Tibetan' in it, I assume this post is ment for me?
