Too bad that those edges are verry jagged and pixelish. Apart from that, its pretty cool 🙂 ---

Ive smoothed it all down and added a blur but, I need an opinion if its better with a blur or without a blur? heres the link for no blur - [http://h1.ripway.com/evildrummer/evildrummerdesktopwithnoblur.jpg](http://h1.ripway.com/evildrummer/evildrummerdesktopwithnoblur.jpg) and heres the link for it with blur - [http://h1.ripway.com/evildrummer/evildrummerdesktopwithblurcopy.jpg](http://h1.ripway.com/evildrummer/evildrummerdesktopwithblurcopy.jpg) \*\*EDIT: \*\*I am having difficulties uploading the no blur copy, it seems to just upload the blurred version! ---

I don’t really like it. But i’m also looking at UK interest rate opinions which may be influencing me! What’s it for?

^ o.O right. i’m not quite sure if you’re just spamming (can never tell anymore) but in any case, we generally don’t hijack people’s threads. definitely no blur… if you want it to look cooler, look at what otehr 3d abstract wallpapers look like. not to copy, but so you see what techniques they use. for example, most of them have very dynamic lighting… highlights, beams of lights, bursts, and a lot of overlaying. If you created some more content like that on top of the 3d render, it’d look more layered, and also hide a bit of the jaggies perhaps! ---

I decided to turn away from the 3D abstract and turn it into a softer cartoony kinda bright and soft thing, 1 with loads of red and 1 with loads of blue red - [http://h1.ripway.com/evildrummer/Newcartoontwistcopy.jpg](http://h1.ripway.com/evildrummer/Newcartoontwistcopy.jpg) blue - [http://h1.ripway.com/evildrummer/bluecartoontwistcopy.jpg](http://h1.ripway.com/evildrummer/bluecartoontwistcopy.jpg) ---

If you created some more content like that on top of the 3d render, it’d look more layered, and also hide a bit of the jaggies perhaps! I’mnot sure if the top of this is a reference to me but if it is i’m not spamming or hijacking a thread. Asking what it’s for is a relevant question to ask. And the link(s) are links to abstract 3d backgrounds. Exactly what you suggest evildrummer looks at. If i’ve made an error in my reading of this situation I apologise. As you say… > can never tell anymore :thumb: ---
