My pelasure and thank you for your support. I always have a busy schedule, but I'll do my best to keep this up for at least the next month or two. I'm excited about how this all goes too!

@blazingwolf
Funny enough, I had laid out the drawing so that I can extend the background (so I can make it fit pretty much any screen size/proportion), so you are a lucky man! The piece is just about done too by the way, so you should be getting exactly what you asked for soon enough. I'll upload the piece to my blog soon and then I'll upload the resized tablet and phone wallpaper versions quickly afterwards. But before I do, can you post the Green Lantern request as a comment on my blog for me? It can be under any post, as long as you ask for it there. That way the people who just visit my website aren't confused as to where I got the Green Lantern idea. Once the request is up and I put the finishing touches on the piece, you guys will see the first in hopefully a series of custom artwork!

Hey Guys!
I've been on PPCG for about 6 years now and you guys have always helped me out alot with ideas on how to tweak my ever changing smartphones (I think 6 in 4 years?). I've always wanted to contribute but couldn't figure out how until now.

I've been a professional artist/illustrator for over 15 years. Working on projects ranging from kids cartoons to movie projects (Check out Disc2 of the Finding Nemo DVD. Special feature: Mr Ray's Encylcopedia? I created the thing Photoshop. Then the 3d guys animated it in Lightwave!). And for the next 2 or 3 months I should have some free time. Which gave me an idea:

Free custom wallpaper for cellphones, desktops, laptops. Free illustrations you guys can use anywhere (except commercial use).

You guys can tell me what you guys would like me to illustrate. Anything. Seriously. Girls, comic book characters, animals, architecture, you can even send me pictures of your loved ones if you want (but i prefer stuff that would appeal to as many people as possible) and I will pick several at a time and draw them whenever I can. I specialize in comic book characters and girls by the way.

Now here's where I think it's cool. After I draw it, I'll upload it to my blog and this site and you guys can download it and use it however you want for free (as long as it's not for commercial use). I'll even resize and crop the final art for you if you guys give me the dimensions you would like the art to fit into (ex/ phone vs desktop sizes). And another bonus: If you reeeeally likes the artwork, you guys can buy the original. I think that I'll only ask a minimum of a $20 donation (should cover supplies, postage, and maybe lunch), but basically it will be for whatever piece you want. If you're very happy and would like to donate more, then please feel free and it will be very appreciated (trying to make this a good Christmas for my family). It will be a "set your own price" kind of thing.

This is going to be an ever evolving experiment. So we'll see if we need to change the concept as we go. But my core goals are to contribute something (free) to you guys and give an opportunity to sell some cool artwork too. So everyone wins. So please tell me what you'd like to see me draw in this forum or on my blog and let's try this out!

Thanks guys!
Here's some stuff to give you an idea about my style(s):
