My final desktop design

This is the first desktop design before any improvments were made.

 After six weeks of using photoshop, drawing and taking images I have finally finished my desktop design. I have made use of the skills I have learned by using the magic wand tool by changing the tolerance settings and I was able to change the brush type to make the water effect and I used the flilter tool to change the appreance of images I made.

I like my design I think it is intresting and I also think that every thing has been put in a suitable place so the design does not look crowded  and there is plenty of space for the icons to be spread out. 

This is the desktop design after any improvments were given to me by the peer group.
