yeah, i didn't know you could get a bigger version by signing up. that will definitely help to make things high quality! and i'd like to re-do it with the high quality version, if i can find the time. cuz it's such a pretty image :D don't worry about it- there are a lot of things that i don't know, so it's good when i can learn a little more
Ah, see. You needed an account! I'm glad you got it now! I'm sorry I was such a nitpicker on here. >.< I just think it was good knowledge for you to know for the next time! You said a bunch of changes and things are happening, so redoing a wallpaper isn't the most important thing lol! Don't worry. :) *hugs*
....but i opened it in it's own tab and save it from there. and when i opened it in GIMP, it was really small >.> so if i click it again, it'll open in another tab, even bigger? and THAT will save to a good size? cuz that would be nice....
(just went there and tried that. i didn't have an account, so i couldn't get access to the biggest version of the image. just signed up, and now i have it. i will try to get around to remaking this, but it depends on some stuff going on atm. thanks for the info, though, zakuro-chan! it's good to know i can use these)

The thing is...that the scan ISN'T small. D: I was saying that it was really big lol! You have to click on the smaller picture to make it big. Did you try that? Try it out and let me know. Cause it was HUGE for me. Look at the numbers beneath the scan. It says 4904x3499. That's the resolution, and that is really big. When you click on the image you will get it that size! So save that image. Or if you want to copy and paste it, you'll have to click on it one more time, I think, to make it the full size. Anyway, the point is that the image IS big. You just didn't find it! XD *hugs*
The #1 rule in walling and making any graphics is never resize things UP!! Never stretch them! It diminishes the quality. Only size down, which is why finding high quality, big images is the most important thing. :) And you found one. You just didn't use the right pic!
I hope that helped. I'd love for you to get the right sized image and remake this. :)
hey! thank you very much :D they will be rough, but they will be healthy. i'll fill you in later.
and yeah, i stretched it out, and that's how it got so blurry. i was sad about that, but not sure how else to make it the right size. i didn't expect the original image to be so SMALL, you know? but i really wanted to use it, so i did my best anyway.
First off< i congratulate you on the changes that will be coming your way. :) You seem happy about them, so I guess they will be good changes, huh? That's great. :)
Next piece of business is this wallpaper. O: Can you tell me how you made it? I'm curious because the scan you chose is really, really big and high quality, but then, not to sound mean or anything (just pointing it out)....your wallpaper's quality isn't that great! It somehow got more pixelated and blurry. Did you click on the scan and get the full size? Or did you just copy and paste the small size and the stretch it bigger? I gotta know! Lol. Because I do like your idea with the wall and the colors and text. It has the makings to be fantastic! But it's somehow blurry and low quality. >.< Sorry! D: *hugs* Again, not trying to be mean or anything. I am just wondering. O:
