Biorust Desktop Background

I was trying to think of an idea for a community collaborative effort and thought a desktop background showcasing a bunch of members would be pretty cool. Especially since we can mix all of the different styles and talents that are around here posting all the time.

So here's the idea, each person who would like to participate gets a square. That square needs to be designed at 72DPI and 320x256 pixels. Please be sure to sign your tile with your Biorust screen name, but other than that, you can do whatever you want with your tile. Showcase your best photo or graphic, design something brand new... whatever you think looks good.

The finished background will end up being 1280 x 1024 so it can be sized down to fit most screens...

Here is the layout for the piece, so feel free to volunteer for a square if you'd like!! I'll piece together the final and post it here as we go along: BiorustWallpaper

VOLUNTEERS:
1: arb (completed)
2: bedlam123 (completed)
3: xiaobaosg (completed)
4: agentxi (completed)
5: paulopires (completed)
6: turvas (completed)
7: tamlin (completed)
8: Jacorre (completed)
9: bub (completed)

Stiney: put me down for a square! I've also closed and unstuck the Mural thread (as it was finished) and stuck this thread in its place.

Just out of interest: why did you put yourself down for square 15? Shouldn't you be number 1, as you came up with the idea?

Actually I was thinking 15 because I thought the bottom right was a good place to feature the Biorust logo and figured I could work with someone who picked 16 to feature the biorust logo and web address along with our work/tile. That and I like the number 15 (being the reverse of 51). What number to you want Tamlin?

OK, here's my contribution. I didn't want to recycle an image I'd already posted, so I've done an alternative view of one already seen.
