To be honest, I don't think it really works as a wallpaper. Over a whole room it's going to look really weird, a big ol' dragon on each tile. Also, I'm not sure if it's your monitor settings or what that don't let you see the seam there, but the ones with the mountains below, the mountains are dark blue and the background behind the dragon is black - with a very obvious line between the two.

I do think the berries are quite pretty, and I like the idea of a blue and white scheme. Maybe take the dragon off the one with the berries, and do it as a bedroom set instead. Dark blue (plain) and dark blue with berries for the walls, and then maybe recolour a rug, some curtains, etc., in a coordinating dark blue and white scheme... and put the dragon on a bedding instead. I think it'd look more appropriate there and would be more usable for a wider range of people.

I like the design. It would make wonderful bedding or even a picture...I like the one with the berries the best

I agree with ead425.
It will work much better as a bedding or Poster.
The first two anyhow.

You expect people to pay for those hairs?!

If you really want a dragon as the wallpaper you should make a plain blue wallpaper and a blue wallpaper with just the dragon. That way, downloaders can make most of the walls plain and have an occasional dragon on it. Or, they could just have the plain blue wall if they don't like dragons.

Looks great on the bedding, but because bedding is fabric, maybe add some texture, like wrinkles. To me, it looks a but paint-bucket filled.

I love the bedding I think it's awesome. I agree with alek to make the same wall but with no dragon. I have quite a few goth sims who have dark rooms this would be perfect as long as it had matching walls for both with no dragons.

Nice bedding & curtians. Are you going to make just a plain blue wallpaper, and wallpaper with the same blue background colour but with a dragon, so people can have blue wallpaper with the occisional dragon? That'd be cool.

I liked the waves on the bottom of your original dragon wallpaper, if they are seamless you could make a plain blue wallpaper with that along the bottom edge, which would be *cupcakes*!
