Could some one make the greatest most heavy metal Thrash metal wallpaper in history?
Hmmm, don't know much about thrash metal, but I'll post it on the OP. If no-one else tries to sort something out then I'll give it a go :)
Thrash metal is like Metallica and Megadeth, if you dont know anything by them ill gladly put up a few songs

Finished. 1440 x 900 wallpaper featuring Red, Luna, Hansel, Gretel, Alice and Mad. If you want any changes to the finished piece, let me know: if not, hope you like it.

I feel that the smaller version loses a lot of the effect/detail. Clicking on the image will bring up the larger version on Imageshack.

As before, I'll probably post this in the Artist in Thee thread as well.
Absolutely brilliant, thank you so much :D. I love the fog too, I never considered that and it really adds to the atmosphere. Nice Pink Floyd reference, really suits the character of Hansel quite well, and I like the style for Red too. Overall, I love it, thanks :D.

EDIT: By the way, love the design for Gretel too, but what does it say on her t-shirt? I can't quite figure out the reference even in the larger version, and I'm curious :p
Glad you like it so much!

Gretel's shirt says "APERTURE LABORATORIES." It got cut off a lot by Hansel, which is unfortunate, but I thought the font was sufficient to get across the idea that it was a geek reference.

Ah, okay then. Is there anything specific you want in the wallpaper, or not? I find it easier to work from a basic idea, you see, though I can always come up with a design myself it's much easier if the requester has an idea of what they want to see in it.

Nothing really specific just totally metal, Put some megadeth and metallica logos and symbols around in there and well if you have played brutal legand,as metal as that

Nice one, I'll have to make some sort of reference to that in the next story I write :D.

No problem, I'll give it my best shot :).

Can any of you guys/gals make Firefox themes and the like? Or even just a Firefox persona, which seems vastly easier...

Somebody else asked for a similar thing a while ago, but no-one's taken up the call yet. They had a Firefox wallpaper that they posted in spoiler tags, and asked for something similar, keeping the feel of the piece. Not sure how to do that myself so I haven't given it a go, and I'm not very clued up on Firefox myself. I could ask around when I PM people/artists about the backlog, though...

Can I give an example of Personas? These SEEM easy to make...





Unfortunately...I'd have to ask whoever made one to upload it.

I might be able to do the Billy Joel one that BillyShakes requested, it'll just have to wait a few days as school is kicking my ass right now. Was there any specific picture he wanted?

Hmmmm, that seems pretty easy, I guess. I could probably make one, though no guarantees it would be any good. And though I do have more time to work on projects now, what with the Easter holidays, I still have two requests now to finish before I think about taking on anything else. With the link here though, I dare say anyone interested could whip one up soon enough :D.

I think so, he wanted it to be inspired by a particular picture. He posted an image in his original post, here:


Seems he wants something done that's inspired by the picture in that post, but looking more pen-and-ink rather than anything digital. Thanks for taking this on, by the way :D.

No worries, it was really just a general heads up to anyone who had previously expressed an interest in helping, since I don't think many people regularly check the OP for new stuff and there's sometimes a backlog that builds up. I generally just send a general PM around every so often to try and ease it down a little :p. Glad you're still willing to help out though, it's much appreciated :D.

I have a request now on behalf of a particular user who goes by the name of S.R.S.

S.R.S. has asked me to produce a GIF of the B.A. Baracus section of the A-Team opening credits, in particular the 'turn', presumably as an avatar or something. I have zero experience of producing GIFs so I promised him I would put the challenge to you guys.

Anybody interested in helping can PM me for more details, and I'll be adding this as a special request to the OP. If anyone wants to help out, then that would be great, and thanks :).

Aprilmarie had mine but I don't know what happened with that...
Well, it has been a long time but she PMed me yesterday and said that she's still working on it, but computer problems mean that half her time is spent fixing that. When her computer is fixed she should hopefully be able to finish it off for you, according to what she told me :)

Okay then, thanks for that :D. I'll let him know now, though I think he might be offline, so expect a reply sometime tomorrow I guess...
