It will take a while. Hang loose. Might be a day or two or as little as a few more hours.

Dark Mist...it looks more like you ran out of filters to use, not out of inspiration.

Some things that do not usually get accepted...
1....swirling an existing image.
2...Lens-flares.
3...Dodge/burn/chrome filters.

I think that caters for 3 out of four, unfortunately...

I am starting to get the idea that Jafo doesn't like filters

Are not Gel buttons and that glassy look nothing more than a filter and thoes make everyone smile.

Delicious - Gel buttons and Glassy stuff is usually done with a lot of layers, not filters.

I never did like filters except in intolerable situations when they might save a piece from the trash bin, plus the good ones cost money

Delicious...it'sthe 'proficiency' of their use.
For example, it is extremely rare for a lens-flare to work well in an image. Imitating the photographic medium seldom works....eyes don't 'lens-flare'...

Photoshop 7? How can you call that rubbish software? That's the cream of the crop. Illustrator is mainly for vector graphics and gets used mostly for 4-color work or product illustration, page design, stuff like that. Photoshop is the best tool there is for wallpapers and doesn't need any filters to make it work better. It's already got too many filters in it right out of the box...

I use Photoshop 6 (can't afford 7)

This is a generated example of many things in a wall that are NOT going to result in an accepted wallpaper.

I have a few more to add...eg, 'harsh contrasts' which distract...but many of the 'classic' errors are there...
