Monthly Wallpaper - LOVE Typography Wallpaper

Posted by Kristan Thursday, February 4, 2010 View Comments

Woah! February had began, and time flies so fast. To start off this love month, I'm going to showcase my 4th wallpaper filed under Monthly Wallpapers. Most of us knew that February is the love month, and seems like I'm in the mood playing with Xara 3D this time, and the creative juice is flowing freely. This time, I got to create a LOVE Typhography wallpaper.

Now let's talk all about this wallpaper. It is basically made out of Xara 3D and Adobe Photoshop CS4. Aside from the usual color red for Love, I tried playing with different color combinations and eventually came up with this output.

I got the cool grungy background from Inspiredology. The background gives much more contrast with the Insaburger font, and the theme colors.

This wallpaper is available in wide screen (1280x800) and full screen (1024x768). You can download the jpg files here:

Set them as your dekstop background now! Enjoy watching the colors burst into your eyes!

Monthly Wallpaper - Techno Culture

Posted by Kristan Wednesday, January 6, 2010 View Comments

Hooray for another month of blogging under this blog! A new month for another wallpaper. This time, I eventually went freestyle. I just dipped a lot of elements in this wallpaper, and eventually came up with a puzzling title, "Techno Culture". Perhaps, the female element in this wallpaper and the brushes I used defined the random title.
