Cool picture, in my opinion would look better clean. I hate wallpapers with 'Guild Wars' or some label/logo on them... Sorta ruins the beauty of them. Anyhow, if you do decide to keep the guild wars logo in, take off that glow/whatever is around it or add Anti aliasing so it's smoother.

Otherwise it's a beautiful image, albeit not yours.

Although not yours, as in you didn't create the image yourself.

It's a common picture that appears frequently throughout the Prophecies campaign. Artbook, manuscripts, and in-game. It's available in its full beauty to everybody at the top of the stairs North of Warmaster Tydus in Ascalon city (Post Searing).

The image itself belongs to ANet, but cropped and logoed you can feel free to call it your own creation... just make sure you don't take credit for the logo or image seperately, for both of them are intellectual property of AreaNet.

I have to say, the wallpaper in Guild Wars website makes this a bit useless. They have it as a nice looking wallpaper where yours is a screenshot from Ascalon. The dragon doesn't look very good with the angle of looking upwards from next to the painting.
