Yes, it's the third wallpaper, I know. But. . . .

Comments are love. Enjoy!

EDIT: This one has a darker frame (Djaq's suggestion)

This is amazing, Wunderkind_Lucy! :) I love the darkness of the background with just the small, framed picture of Lucy. It creates a powerful effect and yet the simplicity of it also adds the intensity of the quote and image. That image of Lucy is so beautiful...it truly represents that quote so, so well! And the quote gave me chills...

Very nice work!

Hey Wunderkind Lucy,

I think it turned out very nice. I agree with Quinlin on the quote and the imagery.

Good effort,
Windsong

Oh man, Wunder. This wp is amazing! I absolutely loved that scene in the movie, and the quote is one of my favorites from the books. The coloring, the text, the quote, the textures... all of it fits together so well. I love everything about it! Excellent job!

Thank you for the lovely comments! :D

After I saw that one scene in the movie, I couldn't resist make a wallpaper with that image, now that I know what scene that image came from. :)

Just one question, it doesn't seem to empty, does it?

Absolutely gorgeous! It's very.... haunting (not ghosts ;) ) in a way. It's simple in the perfect way. No, it's absolutely not too empty. It portrays Lucy and that scene perfectly!

Lol, I know what you mean about haunting.

I wonder, would anybody be interested if I did sort of a series with this type of wallpaper? I'd probably redo Edmund's since the style is different, and nobody's commented on it.

This wallpaper is beautiful, WunderLu! You did a fabulous job on it!
The style is lovely; so simple, and yet...intense, which is the best word I can think of at the moment. The blending is very well done, and great choice for the text. :D

One thing that just came to my mind as I was looking at it was that the frame might stand out a bit too much. Would it be possible to make it a little darker? The color just doesn't seem to flow quite right with the rest of the piece. Otherwise, I think it's great. :)

I would be very interested in seeing a series of all of the Pevensies in this style. :)

Once again, great work! :D

:O this wallpapers beautiful! I love the fact that you did a dark coloured walie, you don't see too many of those, and I lvoe the picture frame, moon, and the font and placement of the text...pretty much everything! you should totally do a series like this :)
do you mind if I save this and use it on my laptop?


Grief for the movies made me abandon narniaweb...but I'm so glad to be back!
Many thanks to the wonderful Lady Eowyn for making my sig/av.

Djaq: I made the frame a bit darker. You're right, I think it flows better with the darker frame. Let me know if you think it should be even darker.

RoseRed: Of course, you may! :D
