Paying everyone a visit

I will probably ignore criticism this time...

Enjoy.

Let me taste
Let me feel
I need to know what you keep inside
No need to speak
Just let it be
Carry out this wish for me let nothing interfere

Rise to submission
I'm still beneath in the soil

Discard your clothes
Let loose you hair
We're intertwined forever and have always been
Say the word
And I'll depart
Upon your lips dwells nothing but the meaning of my cause

And so comes the dark
Vibrant as ever before
Flowers already withered
In this endless winter of souls

Well, it was originally intended as a backdrop for my pc, as I use 1280x1024, which is in the ratio of that image (1024x819).

Good job on the sky, and the lighting, and the pic as a whole. So good job. I'm not too sure what those spiky things in the lower right are supposed to be though.

Trees. Indicated by the spines on them, if you look a little closer. Yeah, I didn't put too much effort into them. And the wolf seems to help indicate a little that it's a forest...

Ah. At first they kind of reminded me of the mountains from "The Grinch".

I thought they were trees, but they're just much pointer than any trees I've seen.

Hm... Well, if people want it as a backdrop, I guess I could post versions up to 2560x2048...

Good gravy, FQuist! That'd be around a 15MB file just for a wallpaper! Come ON, now! :-)

I was thinking about the 1024 version more. ;p

Or a JPG without compression.. (don't know how much compression this one has)

I was just gonna put up versions at various resolutions, higher and lower, (some cropped, too) as JPegs with slight compression. I'll put up uncompressed files if you are THAT eager and are using 98, thus cannot use JPegs as backgrounds and don't know how to change them to BMP... And I know you all want my picture as your backdrop.

It's mostly to get rid of compression. I have transparent menus and I think you really see the compression when using them.
