Do you make the images? Or just find 'em and load 'em up?
I used to do Bryce stuff a lot and it was kinda fun.

Sadly I have to go out and find the images since I'm not very compitant with terragen, and simply can't use photoshop. I've made a few things with terragen, but unfortunately dont have access to the images right now. They're on my old computer and I forgot to upload them before moving to my current computer. I plan on learning more about terragen, especially terragen 2, which I'll get simply because it will only cost $100 if I preorder it(I get $99 off because I bought the original Terragen for $79 before they hiked the price to $99  ), but at the time, I have no clue how to use Terragen 2...they completely changed the interface from the original versions, but luckily there are guides.
I'll eventually get around to putting up my own terragen backgrounds, but my first day of class starts effectively tomorrow, and so I probably wont have time to learn much at all for the next 2 1/2 months...chemistry major, have 2 4 hour labs a week...first lab is tomorrow, then I'll be taking some calculus(multivariable), and then finish it off with organic chemistry lecture, with the ACS Exam for Organic Chemistry as one of my finals  , so...yeah, I'll be too busy to learn much about terragen this quarter

Cool - thanks for the info.
Never heard of terragen - I think I'll google it.
I still have Bryce - I just kinda got burned out on using it. It is pretty cool, that Bryce.

for some reason I'm now getting an error at the page and can't use the "full view" option, and might be something with my university's connection. I got it when I was back home, but started having issues with deviant art once I moved up here...I'll see if I can change some of my settings to fix things to see if it's on my side or not...probably is, but whatever.
Anyways...enjoy  btw...in deviant art, to get to the wallpapers, first click "customization" then "Wallpapers" then click on whatever topic you'd like...I chose landscapes and scenery...so...yeah.
