This will be the place to upload your backgrounds. Please include a short description of your background, and optionally, include links to those renders you may have used.

Submitions may not be entered after the fifth of September.

Thank you. :P

lol. I agree. Dr. Nicks is more or less just a picture of the surface of a planet, and Lord Atlantis is a picture of the sky, with some sweet filters. And, yeah. Swimmers is the same too, I believe.

But do correct me if I am wrong.

lol. Funny. I keep forgetting that i have been doing this for what, five days?

I was merely stating that theres were not solar, and to clear this up further... Solar would be a picture of space/stars/planets etc.

Personally, I know my pic really isn't too good. And thats fine. I merely seek the opportunity to improve my skill. So, that comment is really nothing to me kind sir. But, do carry on with the thread as it should be.

All submitted pics are fine. I will have to post more descriptive rules next time I suppose. Thanks.

You could've been more specific. An alternative and colloquial meaning of "solar" is cool or good. See why we would take offense at that?

that's stupid and uncalled for nem.
i pointed out alot don't fit the theme.
he agreeed, and gave examples.
you have no right to attack his artwork. i honestly think his is better than yours. you text is poorly done, and the bg had no depth to it.
i vote for a theme change to outer space/sun. that would cover all submitted entries, but not make it a FFA for someone to swoop in with a wall they made forever ago without a theme in mind, to outdo the entries made to fit the rules(sorta)
