I know this picture doesn't make sense to you guys... it's a wallpaper I made for my own desktop, the theme is really... surreal and it's got my pseudo name on it.

Please give me some comments.. interest.. overall quality... ways to improve... blah blha blah or anything else you could think of. Thanks. And if you need a copy of this wallpaper for your own desktop, tell me the size of your desktop and I'll export the image for ya! The originall size of this pic is 1280x1024 (Not exactly the idea size to work with, but I finished this in one day. so... what the heck!). This mite take time to load

Plug-in effects mania!
I like it though; very partial to that sort of stuff me.

A one of the ways to improve it(from my humble opinion) is making a good liquid texture without visible edges, plus need some 'playing' with texts (Trance-R).

I think it's a pretty cool picture overall. The only problem I have with it is it seems very "busy." There doesn't seem to be a focal point.

Hey how do you make text to encircle like that what program did u use Trance and how did you make the the water effect. Did u use other programs other than photoshop

I like the top part very much, but as you move downwards it seems to become more and more filtered... Maybe it should calm down a little towards the bottom?

Thanks for all the feedbacks you guys gave me, I'll see what I could do to improve the picture over the weekend.
I used Photoshop 5.01 for this pic, KPT Rad Warp for that text stuff. Mmmph, I should add stuff in the bottom eh? And the ripple is PS's zigzag set to pond. To get a perspective look, you would have to select an area with your marquee tool before proceeding.
