So I've been listening to the song "Some Will Seek Forgiveness, Others Escape" by Underoath a lot over the past couple days, and the lyrics to the chorus gave me the idea for this wallpaper. The chorus goes "Hey unfaithful, I will teach you to be stronger, to be stronger. Hey ungraceful, I will teach you to forgive one another." The first part reminded me of Edmund, and the latter of Peter, so I tried to put those ideas into this wallpaper. I haven't made a blended wallpaper in forever so I apologize for my rustiness

Well thank you DaughterofEve1792 That's encouraging to hear!
Oh, and in case anyone was wondering, I got my screencaps from here, and the fonts I used are Byron and Garamond.

Excellent job MissAravis! I Love it!
I think the blending looks great and the text goes great with the pictures!

HA! What rustiness? This wallie looks great! I love the concept, and the song lyrics go well with it. The coloring is wonderful as well! Great job, MissAravis

What is the resolution of your desktop? I could try to remake a larger version of it.

*claps hands with glee* You would!? Oh thank you!! My screen is 1366x768. Sometimes I can stretch a wallpaper to fit my screen when it's the size you have it at, but yours has too much detail and I don't want to ruin it. Hence the only reason I'm not currently using it.
Thank you so much!!! But if it doesn't work, don't worry about it. 
I know how it is to edit a wallpaper to a different size...

All right, here it is! http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b316/ ... 66x768.jpg
I'm afraid the coloring is very poorly duplicated, 
because I didn't save the original wallpaper as a psd, and I was just kind of messing around w/ the colors and don't remember how I edited it the first time. It's similar though!

Good job, MissAravis! I really enjoy your coloring, and the words do fit.
One think I'd suggest changing is that the left side of Peter's face (as you look at him) has got a line of light on it. It doesn't match the coloring of the background image, and causes it to stick out. I think it could be fixed, but it's not terribly major in any event. Just bothersome.
Keep up the good work! I want to see more from you.

Rustiness!?!? Oh no! That's gorgeous! It's awesome! Your blending is superb! I really think you made the two images look nicely fit together. The lyrics do fit the wallpaper. I especially like how you layered the fonts, first the graceful font then the regular letters. It really looks nice. Oh, and that line of light the sweeet mentioned above, is one of my favorite parts! It really makes Peter pop out at you, and I love that. I think it adds something.
Over all, great job! I really have nothing to criticize!
