Hello

[TSK]

I'm not sure where it's from, honestly.  I didn't create it, someone else on ATS did, based on my requirements.  It took some weeks to get it just right, and it's actually quite a long image vertically, so it takes a really long post to see it all.  There's more stuff going on down below than what you can see here.  The image is a composite image made from several different sources.  The guy who created it was a real wizard at creating these things.  The theme was a lone survivor in a post-apocalyptic desert like environment.  It was meant to evoke a question in the mind...sort of like 'where to go from here?' which was/is a rough, though somewhat exaggerated, question we face as a people today.  I wanted it to have an almost old west sort of appeal to it as well, so as to bridge the time spans between the past and the present, and looking to the future.

The guy who put it all together was a really talented guy.  I thought the bird was a nice touch (that was his idea), it gives the image an air of hope.

Edit - I went and looked at one of my other posts (here) and the image TSK created for me (which I very much appreciate) is just the part you see.  It doesn't scale out longer as the post size increases.  I'm not sure how all that scaling stuff works, so I had zero understanding in how to create it.  It has to do with some 'invisible mask' you have to create first, and then the image gets overlain on this invisible mask.  The image itself is longer than the mask, so only the part you see shows in a short post, but in a longer post the image actually becomes longer and you see more of what's below.  I am just very thankful TSK was able to create what he did for me, and I think it looks great!

It's the same image from ATS. I didn't have to edit it at all. 200px width is perfect here. However, the mini profiles here have a max height and wont continue to extend with the post size like ATS.
