First and foremost, I would like to greet everyone a Happy New 2008 Year. Another year with lots of discoveries and undying challenges. Glad that we are again moving forward to another stage of our lives. And with that, I have a not so good news to you guys. So here it goes. I am giving away another Desktop Wallpaper.
The Ang Pilipino GIMP’s 2008 starter special edition wallpaper completely inspired by a Professional Designer, Fabio Sasso, a Brazilian designer living in Porto Alegre (south of Brazil) and is famously called Abduzeedo through his blog with tons of compelling and straightforward Graphic Tutorials.
It all started when I saw his blog having not only PS tutorials but also GIMP tutorials. To mention a few are the Leopard’s Aurora Borealis Wallpaper in GIMP and GIMP Galaxy. And then I saw his PS tutorial on making Leopard Starburst effect in Photoshop and I said…
Wow, can I possibly do this kind of effect using GIMP? Why not give it a try. Sigh….
So it was after all a source of inspiration to kick start and doodle.
To my visitors, you could download this artwork, treat is as your own, use it commercially or personally, modify and make derivatives of it and distribute if you want to.

How the hell did you do that. Personally I would like to do something similar and play around with it a little. BTW It is Awesome!
Hi there darkcodemonkey. I’m so sorry that I can’t provide you a tutorial in GIMP due to time impediments. As said above, I just made use of the PS Tutorial provided by Abduzeedo. Visit the link at http://abduzeedo.com/leopard-starburst-effect-photoshop.
Anyway, If you’d like to play around with it I can give you the XCF source file.
