Well, Blue Blur mentioned the most recent of Dana's art would make a good wallpaper, and I agreed. So here we have it: Get behind me Llewellyn! Image size is 1152x864.
Critique welcome!
With mild blur the way I like it:

It seems a bit more blurred than the original version you made, why's that?

I usually add just a little touch of blur to things like this, as I find it makes it look a little softer around the edges. I dunno, my eye seems to prefer it. However, if you want a blur-free version, I could put one up.

yeah, if sharp edges are your problem try either anti-aliasing (for the font in that) or just blurring the edges...no need to blur things that don't need it

Thanks guys!
I have just always been a blurry person, lol. And be edges, I also mean the edges of the characters as well. Therefore, anti-aliasing and blurring the edges won't work. Anyhoo, whatever.

I actually preferred the blurred picture, but not enough to change my current desktop.
