i don't know, use something like helvetica or garamond.

It would obviously look better if I put some depth to it. Hmm...a good OS X picture editor that is free.

what do you mean depth? you just need to pick a solid typeface, not one that was created to look cool for microsoft word on flyers

generally any time you ever see that typeface it was not done with someone with design background, basically an amateur. i'm not taking any shots or anything just trying to mature your taste haha

I'll get mine up.

it's not distorted, you're the one distorting it. you have to right click on your desktop, then go to properties, and under desktop on the right it should say "stretch, tile, center." to undistort it put it on centered. it'll leave bars on both sides but that picture wasn't made for a widescreen aspect ratio so you'll have to find one to fit it!

I see a pattern immersing here. First Jet's wallpaper, then Dilberts? Who's next?
