Clickity was actually a serious consideration in my mind too. ^^

we can have Clickity as our catch-phrase! :grin: or maybe it can be somewhere in the site's adress.

as for Christian lyrics... I say yes! There are great Christian songs out there with awesome lyrics! PWEEEAAASE Myrrh!
*puppy eyes*

O, btw, shall we start asking the people for permission now?

Where could I find a tutorial on making wallpapers? I'd love to, but I have no idea where to even start >_>;;

Here is a great site that helped me make my first one, even though it uses Photoshop:

;) great site that :grin:

What type of program do you use? If its Paintshop Pro, I know of a really good site that has tonnes of brushes! :D yay for brushes!

Either GIMP or Photoshop 6/7

Oh I hadn't even thought of that.... hummm I don't see why not. But you're the one in charge of Sanctus Lux so you can make the final decision. ]

My site helped you? o_O How exactly did it help if you don't mind me asking?

Oh and nightblade if you have access to Photoshop 7 then that is the program you should be using. If you want brushes I suggest you go to my site as Talame suggested an then go to the "credits" section. I have a whole list of sites where I got brushes from.

Here's some sites with good photoshop tutorials:
http://www.tekuteku.org/indexu.html
http://www.imanimetions.net/main.php
http://ningen.nattoli.net/

Acutally I'm pretty sure there is a Photoshop tutorial thread in the Tutorials section on here. :) Go and check it out! :thumb:

The tutorial on basic stars + clouds :grin:
Ok, it doesn't look exactly like (or anywhere near) your final product, but considering we were using different programs, I think its pretty good.

Edit:
btw, I have made another wallpaper... but I dont know where the chick is from! I'm working on it though ;) When I find out, it'll be officially submitted :grin:

You don't have to know--we can always put "Unknown" for now and if you find out later just let me know and I will update it. No worries. ^^

Ahh ok glad it was able to help you a bit. :thumb:

Hehe... since Ashely is pretty much in charge of it I'll let her decide when she wants to open to the public. I'm hoping I'll get really ambitious and make a custom skin for the Sancut Lux gallery (like Anime paper has: http://www.animepaper.net/nenene/ ) But I donno... that will take a lot of ambition. XD

Awww thanks! :hug: I'm so happy to hear that. :) Although a bunch of the credit needs to go to Ashley since she has submitted a lot of the wallpapers that are on my site. :hug: Yay Ashley! :lol:

And yeah making wallpapers is fun. It gets even more fun the better you get believe me. (cause it starts to turn out closer to how you pictured it in your head XD )

Aww, you're welcome. I enjoy it quite a bit--design has become my passion (and my major) so it's awesome I get to help out with a Christian site like Daystar. ^^
