Right. But I was trying to match them up with the characters on the wall that were already there. And they had a special color to their shadow (kind of a bluish purple hue) and I couldn't get it right with a color overlay or an adjustment layer (even with an eye dropper tool). I tried and tried.

Oh - and the desktop is on the way Canny

Ah thanks. Is my mailbox large enough?? I have nothing in it, so it should be ok.

Edit: Ah ok thanks a lot! It's b-e-a-utiful! +rep!

I just did that one today for a competition over at strongfans.com.

The pictures supposed to be much larger. It's much easier to see the opacity on the larger image. But if you look closely at that one, you can still see it.

So Null posted here? Kinda confusing since I ignored him, I can't keep track of what you're saying...

[Canyarion]

[Null]

lol. what are you on about?

[thatmariolover]

Heh. Just a misunderstanding apparently

Anyway, I did another background. It's originally in 1600x1200 (you can see it on my Deviant Art page - link above), and I have to say it looks much better in a larger size, but I wanted to post it here.
