Hey, Usualy i dont make the "master" themes that skins your hole pc, i just work on wallpapers and cursor xp's, sometimes i do a winamp skins or coolplayer and now i am working on a windosmediaplayer skin and my first master theme (with master theme i mean winstyles)
Sometimes i do make a design on paper and work it out, a recent one is availabel at this forum under the thread: tell me what you think about this template.
On a cursor xp i work about 4 hours, a wallpaper 2/3 hours and winamp a day or 2, coolplayer 1 day and desktop X also about 2 days.
You asked how we get this idea's? Don't know most of time i am near to sleeping and then i get this KILLER id, i open my eye's make a quick drawing and try to sleap on, what most of the time dasn't work out, cause i am too curious to work my id out enz enz enz
hope this helped. if you need a design for your site your welcome to use the template

I was mainly refering to like small graphics and wallpapers. Not themes yet I haven't made it to that leve.

Thanks... I did make some object Dock items if you haven't seen them.. The biggest thing I saw that people liked was the Firey Chrome and the full Bio-Hazard. And they were my first uploads. I just thought I would go to the next level. But I might not be ready yet. I just got ideas but just can't seem to find a way to put them on the computer. Heck, I can draw it on paper. My bro has one that he's going to have me upload when he's done to see if it passes. But here is my first big try which was told that It's poster Art which I could see. I think I was rushing ideas. But I got a good one that I have designed in head and paper, just have to get it into Bryce which is going to take probably a week or so. Here's my first attempt -> http://weaksid.8m.net/Rev1-8(1024x768).jpg . I actually made the symbol line by line. I couldn't find a shortcut. That was going to be part of my Revelation series but I'm going to keep that for my site then and add it to my scripture Express area. Let me know what you think of that. That was the main thing I wanted to find out.. what people thought. But this next one should be alot better and I think I got the idea behind of what they want

Dange it.. Did it again.. Umm. http://weaksid.8m.net/Rev1-8.jpg

I changed the file on my server

Jafo, I understand fully why you didn't accept it. I looked at it over and over and I saw what you saw about the poster Art.

A wallpaper should be able to be formed into a Theme. I understand that.

I also understand about Trial and error. I wasn't putting the judgement or anybody down if you thought I was.

I just wanted some comments on what I did make since it was my second attempt and I used Bryce and Photoshop to design that one.

O', Plus I also remember reading that you guys love details. I'm keeping that in mind also when I create my next one.

I C.. Like I said, I'm learning. IT's a new side to graphics for me. Thanks for all the help.
