I decided to make a wallpaper cause I hadn't made one in awhile, and wound up making a series based around the song "Slow Fade" by Casting Crowns. Each of the four Pevensies has their own wallpaper and then I made a fifth one featuring all four.

So, like? Hate? Love? I'm not really satisfied with Edmund's myself, but what do you think?

Love. Definitely love. I always love the more artsy backgrounds that involve lots of meaning. It's amazing to take a children's Bible song and re-apply the meaning to it. All of these I would favorite. Thank you for sharing!

Looovvveeee!!!!!! Actually I think Edmund's is my favorite. You may want to consider a light texture on the Lucy one though

I really think they scenes you used matched the words to perfection.

You matched the lyrics perfectly with everyone! I really love the black and white with everyone, i have a thing with black and white. It's beautiful! Great job!

These are amazing, daughter of the King! I love the idea of pairing of the lyrics and how you selected the perfect pictures to create even more emphasis for each of them! I really like the colouring for the 1st one of Lucy with the lightened tones over her face. I think the Edmund one is lovely! The picture clearly works and the lyrics are so representative of that moment.

They're all great, but I agree with wolfy that I like the Edmund one the best! The last one with all four Pevensies is also pretty interesting...I think the black and white effect is unique and I particularly like the lyrics "People Never Crumble In A Day" in the center of the wallpaper!

Thanks for the comments everybody!

Shy Galadriel: Actually, credit for reapplying the song goes to Casting Crowns. I was just inspired by their idea. I am glad you like the concept so much though. And really? They're all your favourites?

wolfy: Would you suggest making the Lucy one lighter or darker? The Edmund one is your favourite? Huh. I was dissatisfied with the placement of the words and the cropping and I thought his skin tone was a little too reddish. I'm glad you liked it though!

Damsel: Oh good! I wasn't sure about the black-and-white effect. I was originally going to have it in color, but the colors in the four images were too different from each other so I desaturated everything.

Quinlin: You like the Edmund one, too? Maybe I'm just too judgemental of my own work.

*wishes she would have thought of this idea!*

Fantastic concept, daughter of the king! The images you chose for Lu, Ed, and Pete are perfect pairings with the lyrics of the song! Susan's didn't connect with me quite as well, just because the others were so powerful. My favorite would have to be the one you did of all 4. The lyrics and the images you paired them with are perfect, and the "people never crumble in a day" line looks so good in the center! Great choice to put it in black and white! I would have chosen to do more in the way of coloring/textures/brushes on all of them, but your message still comes through very well. Great work! *is inspired now to go make a wallpaper*

wow. wow. WOW!
I love them all! this song is perfect for the Narnia movies and I love how you put each part of the song with each one of the characters!
great job! keep up the good work!

I'm not sure XD I think it's because the other three had a bit of a blue blue-green tint, but the Lucy one was redder so it might have just stood out a little.

Other than that I think they're perfect! If you're dissatisfied with the Edmund one... maybe you could place the text a little to the left? But I think the cropping is fine

Also I like the words you chose to go with Susan, I think they tell her story perfectly. And the black and white one! It's beyond description!

I really like the last one!

Advice for the others is I would have changed the coloring and maybe added some fun effects. Right now they look a bit like you just took a screenshot and added text. Some coloring would make it more dramatic and make it seem more original.

Good job!

WOW. Those are really excellent. The words really fit with the pictures you used - in order of my favorites, I would say Peter, Lucy, Susan and Edmund. Oh, and the last one is super cool as well. Love it!! Excellent job.

Words can't explain how awesome this is! I absolutely loveloveLOVE them! Each picture fits each lyric perfectly! Hmmm, My favorite is the group picture. I can't choose a favorite single shot, they're all so good! Nice job daughter of the King!!

LOVE. Sweeeet lyrics:)
