Have you ever heard people say that black and white was boring? Or that it's old fashioned or something to that effect? My point is that black and white can be very modern and it can make a bold statement too. I like the black and white images that have spots of color. They look so cool, especially when one area is emphasized, it gives it a lot of personality and gives black and white photos a modern twist. Here are some examples of what I mean
Example One...

Example Two

These in my opinion are really good examples. The 1st link is an image I found that a good example of what I talked about above. The second link is a wallpaper by my friend Cloud55Strife. A majority of this image is black and white but there are hints of blue throughout I just really liked it for this reason and it inspired me to create this challenge. Ok now to talk about the challenge aspect.
In this challenge you are to create a black and white wallpaper with one or more small areas of color. If you need inspiration or just need to get a better idea of what I mean, click the examples above. There are more ways to put spots of color in a black and white wallpaper but I what you to figure them out. Everyone with me so far? Now onto the rules(I know groan right? But there has to be some rules)
Rules
1.You are to create a black and white wallpaper with spots of color. For more info please read the above paragraphs.
2.The wallpaper has to be made by YOU. It can't be someone else's wallpaper like from Minitokyo or somewhere. It has to be your own creation. That brings me to my next rule.
3.NO PLAGIARIZING! I hate it when other people take credit for other people's work. IT MAKES ME ANGRY AND IT MAKES OTHER PEOPLE ANGRY TOO! DO NOT CLAIM SOMEONE ELSE'S WORK AS YOUR OWN! IF YOU DO, YOUR ENTRY(IES) WILL BE DISQUALIFIED!
4. You can submit up to two wallpapers if you want too.
5. Give credit to your image/texture/brush/stock photo sources. If you don't know where they came from, that's fine too. But try to give credit as much as you can.
6.Your signature has to be somewhere on the wallpaper. I want to know who made what made wallpaper.
7.Have fun with this challenge. I want to see how creative you guys can be.
