Okay, so here's the deal. I made myself 2 wallpapers, but I have no idea which one looks better or how to improve any of them. I'm working currently at Photoshop CS3 Extended + some brushes I've found.

I like the first one because it's cooling (xd), but on the other hand the red one looks a bit more... polished?

My wallpapers reflects my mood most of the times, so now I would use the first one.
The second one is a bit blurry, but still cool.

The second is definitely better, even though it's a bit LQ.
I'd say you need to work on your colors (monotone isn't good all the time), and put more effects, and concentrate a bit on blending the image into the background.
Also, it helps to define one main point, or focal, so your eyes are drawn to it, because instead your eyes search around the wallpaper.

I would prefer the first (blue) one as it is easer on the eyes. Studies have shown that redish hues tend to be unconfortable for most people and tend to put them "on edge." I will admit that the second (red) background has a better picture.

the blue one would be my preference, the red is nice but it looks angrier?

I like the first one better. The second one is a little more blurry. I think the first one would look nice in a light-greenish color. Just an opinion

I like the blue one as well, looks more icy

i like tight cropping of these, don't know how to tell you where exactly so i hope you don't mind, these are IMHO only.

Wallpapers are LQ because of Imageshack and that I didn't load the .jpg file, but I did the print screen -> paint -> save thing. So instead of a HQ wallpapers with sharp looking character, you have a blur.
Thanks for the tips, I'll try the first render in a light-green colors, maybe will look better.
But hey, not too shabby after 6 months of not using PS CS3 ;p
