looking at the image you posted it has a few major problems:
(1) The characters are pixelated.
You took an image and made it larger or used a filter to make it blurry and made up of squares. This is not allowed in
the Policy. You can take a large base image and make it smaller, but you cannot make a small image and stretch it
larger. The quality becomes very poor when you do that.
(2) Everything is squished and out of ratio.
You should keep everything in the correct proportion.
(3) The background looks like you've got some ideas going on, but the overlay checker pattern I'm not a fan of
- it doesn't really have anything to do with the image.
I think you're on the right track and you're starting to make a background and doing stuff, but like Sinistra
said, it's a lot of work to get wallpapers to a nice standard. I think you're using the wrong base images (too
small) and you're using way too many modifications to the point that the quality of work is just overloaded with
filters. Read the policy again in greater depth - over filtering is NOT a good way to make wallpapers. Keep us posted on
this work.
BTW-
This is NOT a scan! You can't *make* your own scans. I don't know why
you keep thinking this is a scan, but a scan is an image drawn by the original artist that has been scanned with a
scanner. Stop trying to think of making your own scans! If you can buy artbooks and scan them, then those are called
scans. The best you can do on Minitokyo with a scan is either vector/ trace art or wallpapers.
People download scans because they want the base image. Just because you have a different background, it doesn't
mean your base image is any better. People use scans to make wallpapers - the image you posted up is basically
impossible for using in a wallpaper. Either way, this is not a scan. Abandon the scan idea.
If you ask for my personal opinion, I'd stop making wallpapers and learn to do vector/ trace art FIRST. You can
submit traces of scans to the Indy Art category provided that you did them yourself. Once you can do that, wallpapers
are not difficult to make. I think you're just running too fast and too eager to submit to the gallery without even
understanding the basics yet.
I did as a wallpaper you were all incorrect. I did not enlarge what I made nor shortened it and followed all your
credits. I didn't are if you liked the design they were good to me. Plus I was just starting to use my software. I
did the best I could and followed everything you guys gave me. I understand all you tolled me. I took note of everything
the mods said so everything should be in check. I re-modified it okay, and change it competently so i want it back.

say I added to much to the wallpaper I don't understand that. I am just using what I can I mean if I added to
little there wouldn't be that big of a difference. That is what I am shooting for. I want the pic to be totally
different. As for resolution please allow me to upload another in high res..
