    I make my own backround most of the time, but sometimes ill take a random picture and somehow blur it, and it looks cool sometimes.

    I make my own. Doesn't take much skill at all taking 'em from off the web.

    I am completely against not making your own bgs, unless your work is specifically a true photomanip. Taking some wallpaper or screenshot off of the web falls under ripping imo. Do your own damn work. I'm tired of seeing people get praised for cropping screenshots and wallpapers with gaussian blur+lighten.
