Ok i have been asked many times how do i make wallpapers but i have never really been able to explain it in a clear way but i am going to try ^^

This is from a note i sent one of my friends recently i hope it helps and if anyone has any questions please feel free to ask ^^

WHAT YOU NEED:

The main things needed to make my walpapers is (1) photoshop (i use CS3 but im sure you could do it with other versions too and (2) a drawing tablet(not really neccesary but i dont like just pushing random buttons in photoshop and then calling it art, thats just me so i do draw things in ^^)

WHAT TO DO:

First you make a new document and paint it all black (BUCKET TOOL), then you use filter- distort- lens flare.

after that you can use a variaty of different filters to make it the way you want( you kind of have to play with this step becuse differen versions of photoshop vary in what filters they have and what the look like). By know you can stop and you have a pretty good looking wallpaper but i like useing my tablet to draw and add different things into the wallpaper, but thats just me ^^

I hoped this helped ^^
