Greetings Ryan,



First let me say "you are quite talented to say the least." I'm very pleased with what I've seen so far. I'm new to accumulating Wallpaper for my desktop, and I have a few questions I'd like to ask. But I also know you can't answer every question you see, and I certainly don't expect you to. But I'm having problems with downloading some of the 2003, and earlier years of an image, because when I right click on the image the window isn't the same as it is when I click on 2008. I tried to download that "plug in" tab to my computer and when I accepted the active X, my computer kept giving me those same set of boxes to hit and it never did download at all. Do you first understand what I'm talking about, and if so could you help me to understand more about how to get those earlier imagies downloaded. I'd be grateful for any kind of help you can give a novice who really doesn't know an a whole lot about computer. Thanks and may God bless you.

A journey of a thousand miles begins with one step, yours has started.(not my words but it conveys the feeling.)

Added the link, thanks

Any thought to making the blog public at all? Wouldn't mind linking it to my own blog.

Ryan,

I Think the blog is a great idea. I'm sorry you're perhaps going to lose some viewers because of a political ad, but actually, it's THEIR loss, not yours. They're the ones who will miss out on all of the future artwork you'll be doing. You'll probably anger others because you're a Cubs fan, and they'll drop out. And others 'cuz you went to St. Louis to see the game. And others perhaps 'cuz you were seen drinking a Coke rather than a Pepsi, blah, blah ad nauseum. Buddy, you just keep on doing what you're doing, and the fans who matter will always be here for you. Thank you for doing something with your talent, and sharing it with the rest of us. Are you earning money at it? Of course you are!! Is there anything wrong with that? Hell, no! Fifteen bucks for a year's renewal? I consider it dirt cheap for what I get, and am damb thankful I found your site. Keep on truckin', my man. You're the best!

What a great idea! I've been a member of your site for quite a number of years now. I'd love it you might sometimes mention the inspiration for the wallpapers. Like for example, when you had linked to a photo that had inspired "Dispersion". I'd find it interesting to know what inspired various pieces :)

excellent news glad to hear cant wait

Blogs can be very useful, in this case you can put your thinking about your creations, like in the unicorn blog. That way people can understand your reasoning behind the art you make.

oh, I hate those too. especially the ones that are nearly impossible to read!!!

Looking forward to seeing this idea take shape. I think it will be great!

Great idea, Ryan! I'm pleased to be able to gain some insights as to your work and thoughts. I'll be keeping an eye in your blog, that's for sure :)



PS: my username is "andvaranaut", but it wouldn't fit on the "Name" field...

Love the idea of a blog. I always love getting to work and finding that those blogs to which I subscribe have been updated with new and exciting content. Looking forward to more posts and an RSS feed!

Hi Ryan,



Thought I'd get the 1st post and to let you know that I will keep an eye on this blog (and will subscribe once the RSS feed is up).



Hope all's well in the Bliss household.
