How do you make these wallpapers? Do you take existing wallpapers and digitally manipulated or are these made from scratch using some graphics tool?
Offline
I tend to make mine from scratch using inkscape and gimp.
But sometimes I get lazy and manipulate a picture of my own.

Awesome Wallpaper Conker1r!
Can you...?
blur the sharp lines of the ellipses inside the logo? (with about 10-25px)
Brighten the logo (without loosing the hue) with about 4%
Blur the glow behind the logo with about 7px.
Darken the glow behind the logo with about 4%.
That would be cool.

I would if I could. I seem to not have saved my original svg files.
I could only try to redo it from scratch.

@Ped
Looks like I found my original svg files.
You can download the file here if you want to give it a go.
open it with inkscape.
make sure you open the layers dialog.

I would like to make a request if possible...
Any chance of getting a dark textured background with just a big Arch Linux symbol?
My screen resolutions are 1280x1024 and 1366x768. ![]()

@dobbs
You are absolutely awesome. I would like to make a backdrop like that. In honour of that I helped out our frend here who requested a few adjustments. Hope you don't mind.
Thank you.
@KuJoe
I did the logo thing with a black backdrop. But that looked empty, so I edited Hubble's Detail of SWEEPS ACS/WFC until I got the right effect to replace it.
Enjoy.

I did what I said and added a lens-flair. Conker1r's artwork give's a more technical atmosphere, though I think If you like something theatrical, this is definitely an option.
Enjoy!

This could be classified as my first try at graphics. I found the Logo on the net and layered it in Gimp and gave it a glow, hope you like it.

@Concker1r: Would be nice if Will used one of your design for the next AB release: the one here in this post above or

which I like for its originality.

First of all... I am so honored by the fact that some of my artwork was used in RC/test i've downloaded. You have my full permission to use anything I post in this forum ![]()
Also, Conker1r, You have a great style. I enjoy seeing every time what you came up with next. Free-flowing spontaneous art. (And a bit of sweat which we appreciate) Keep on being who you are.
Secondly, Some reflections on the Elegant Brit for those who enjoy(ed) it. (Don't get me wrong, I like the DARK Archbang GTK theme 3.5 times better
)
And an openbox theme to go with it:
Elegant_Brit
Just paste the contents in /usr/share/themes/Elegant_Brit

Great, this last one, Conk. A concept very well executed; what I see is: talent + lots of exercise creates better and better quality.
Well, Pet, I liked the last two you made also very, very much. I was aiming at letting you know that, but forgot earlier. I find a beautiful balance between colours, letter size and positioning creating a very harmonious whole.
I always have a beautiful picture as desktop so I don't use a graphical wallpaper, but we have no shortage of real quality AB wallpapers!!
Couldn't we make a image gallery somewhere that brings all these designs together, where people can download what they want and the designers present their best creations?

We could make a DevianArt just for archbang.

Exactly, create a DeviantArt Archbang group, that would do the job.

Playing with crazy perspective on this one.
I decided no branding on this one, it just didn't come out right with it.
