From Simple to Outstanding

Hi all!
One of my friend has asked me how to make a good wallpaper..
Even though,I still a little not too good at some wallpapers.. ^^

We will go together step by step,
Are you ready?? XD
So here is some tips..
1. Find some resources of nice graphics or pictures
You can find it everywhere in internet
It includes a simple thing like landscapes
You can find it mostly at http://www.deviantart.com/

2. Develop some of ideas in your mind,what the wallpaper you want to create,looks like
This stage needs some touch of imagination..
(Just like Spongebob?? Tee Hee)

3. Try to combine your ideas with the graphics you found in step 1..

4. This is the artistic step!!! XD
Use brushes to complete the pretiness of your wallpaper..
The renders are from:

However,I kinda avoid this step now,because,A good art mades from natural things(become a photomanipulation then),so it becomes more harder,and worthy to the creator..
~Some people usually happy,and proud to them self,how they were able to create a very good wallpaper,but the wallpaper's beautiness was innatural(my opinion)~
But,every choice youi made is really up to you..

5. Bla Bla Bla.. LOL.. XD
Add every worthy part to make it nice,Pal!!

6. The essential thing of a wallpaper...
Don't forget some credits!!
Credits is about where you get the resources of images from,the brushes,and so on..
Why??
YOu aren't really respecting the creator of the brush and image renderers,and you are a plagiarizer..
Whoa.. It's bad thing,guys...

Well.. Those are my simple things to make a walpaper.. How was that?
I hope you enjoy this.. ^^

Sincerely,
