From my other thread:

A sort of blue-hued Deus Ex: Human Revolution style of tech coupled with sort of bright, video-game colors/space-like undertones. (In other words, think DX:HR + Final Fantasy)

In yet other words, a cool/sexy/sleek fusion between technology and magic, with blue as the primary base color of things

I like the sort of fantasy/space-like edge of Noctis:
http://themeforest.net/item/noctis-t..._preview/56749

And the DX:HR hard-edge wirey/graphy/futuristic style
http://www.gamepur.com/files/images/...lution_ads.jpg

the sort of abstract/jagginess to it all:

welp. one half-assed attempt later..

and diagonal scan lines D:<! (jk) but yup, good suggestion hi19 !_!

edit: although, there may be an option to have a border around the body already implemented in his blog creator. I can always add one if necessary..

edit2: sorry it's a .jpg. derp'd when saving it in photoshop. it honestly looks a lot better than this. will .png next time

I pretty much echo hi's comments -- only criticism otherwise is that it's a little *too* much like DX:HR

derp, I tried to be clever and host it on Dropbox, since imgur was converting it into a .jpg and defecating the image quality.

obv that's not working - so lol, imageshack~

All image hosting websites downgrade your image quality. Host it on a personal ftp if you want it lossless.
