OK since I am a fan of Disturbed I decided to do something with the cover of their newest album.I thought this looked pretty sweet when I did it so I decided to post it here.

Here is the picture I used to make it:
Disturbed-Indestructible

I might do some more and submit the best out of them as well.

Well wait actually I think the rules were that you have to supply a link to anything that is made using another picture,and I did.Its not like I am taking credit for drawing it either.Anyways even if they don't accept it.I still think it looks awesome.

I'm new to this and am only using an older version of Paint. How could I add a better background and possibly make the blue a gradient?

If you use the edit feature on photobucket or GIMP or even photoshop which cost money,then it is fairly easy to change some things,but one issue I had with that picture was how the middle finger was sticking in such a strange way,like it was broken or something,but for the most part its good.Now if only someone could draw some drums.

That's right, it cannot be used.

That is to make sure that it isn't copyrighted, not to make it ok.
