Facing the scorn of everyone here, Skorn has made yet another file! Don't worry, keep reading...

Spiffy Dink Desktop is a desktop background featuring Dink hellfiring the head off a duck.

Let me heat that up for you... 
It is pretty small for a desktop image... And the Dink image is poorly ripped from another image.

Nobody has a 523x342 desktop size, that's not even normal--you'd have to create your own desktop size.

Edit: (for it to be in "optimal viewing scale")

The hellfire looked quite nice, but I don't think it's a desktop material due to its size... You should have linked a screenshot before uploading it, to get feedback and advices for improvement.

The fire was the only thing of interest. Dink was ripped from the DinkEdit loading screen, quite clearly, and the pillbug is absolutely pointless. Looks nothing like Dink casting any spell, let alone Hellfire, on anything, more like some giant fireball hurtling towards Dink while he's suspended in some yellow energy field.

The resolution alone is pretty pitiful as well. No-one likes having an image in Centered mode for their background.
90% fail, 10% good, the only good thing in the image being the fire which you probably ripped from somewhere as well.

I know for a fact he didn't create that fireball on his own. 100% ripped.

I know it's only 500something pixels but I set it as background and didn't think it was all that terrible... I've certainly seen worse

Do you atleast like it? I have been receiving bad things about it.

Like it.... kind of, but wouldn't use it myself!

TBH it doesn't look like it took much longer than 30 seconds to make and it is somewhat on the small side, but hey.

I don't think it was bad, but certainly would not use it. Or maybe I would. I don't know.

Hmm.. 
You should have made a whole new dink, and a new duck.
But nice attempt anyway, I think it kinda cool

I agree with iplaydink. You should have made the hellfire by yourself also.

I found this on the first page when I searched "fireball".

Well, the fireball was at least a nice picture, with many pixels, if you steal something it better be good
(not like the Dink)

This is almost good. Almost.

Minus the aliased pixels, tiny resolution and weird half-showing glow around Dink.

Sure it works, it just doesn't look that great, especially when you're used to great desktop wallpapers and have a critical eye.
