The 1st 3rd and 4th are probably the best, nice job on those. I really don't like the last 2 at all.

Very beginner-ish. They're definitely a start though. _smile.gif

I like the first one the most; it's pretty cool. The Jacob one looks low in quality, the cloud & name ones are cool, the two band ones could use some work. There's too much going on. As for the last one, I like the concept.

These are pretty good considering you're just starting. Keep up the good work. _smile.gif

I only like the first one, the others are either to busy, or the images you used were low quality or too many brushes

The first one could use a little softening around the silhouettes of Edward and Bella. The second one's images could be more tied together, and better quality. The third and fourth ones I like (: The fifth one, I think it could be improved by making the text more connected, more similar in size, and fewer words, as well as joining the images more smoothly. The sixth one needs to be higher in quality. But overall, you're doing well (: Keep working on improving yourself! (:

1. Looks really simple. I'm not sure how the original looked like but I can see this on a prayer card or something.
2. MAJOR props for using Cam instead of Robert. throb.gif But the blending is bad, tbh. You didn't really blending anything. It seems like you just placed some images on top of each other & lowered the opacity. It's pretty plain too. No editing was done to the images.
3. Make sure to use a hard brush when erasing things. And to have a steady hand because the edges look choppy.
4. Cute. I like it.
5. You need to blend the center because it just seems like you placed the images next to each other. Also if you're going to edit one image, make sure to edit the other. It just looks weird lol. I like the font though. Fits in well.

Okay I'm done putting in my 2 cents. :)
