Well, I rate it a 5/10.
The textures are.. bleh. and the font color doesnt look good on that.
The top part of the image is so empty, and the effect on the images is a little weird.
Maybe try adding more brushes, use different textures, different font color, and dont make the image so tall that it looks empty at the top.

Okay, i'm going to be a bit honest but I still like you anyways!

That third picture, from the left, yeah it just seems TOTALLY RANDOM! It's Like..okay.okay..HELLO!..okay. I think maybe 86 that picture, move the 4th picture over to 3rd pictures place it may look a bit better. I understand about the texture, it does seem blah, same with the font. Maybe, instead of doing textures try some color filled layers first to get some good coloring going and then do a texture on top.


I give it a 6 though. :)

I give it a 6. I like the blending job. But agreed with Kristina, the 3rd picture seems to pop out of no where. Plus, the texture makes the pictures look really bad image quality. But good job! wink.gif

the updated version looks better, but as Kristina said, the positioning needs work. You have a lot of empty space in the top right corner so it looks unbalanced. How do you do the texture? You always seem to lose your blend in it, know what I mean? she's missing her nose and stuff. Set it to a different blending option then? The blending is fabulous <3333 but the effects need a lil work

i give it a 5. the placement of the images are weird and the 3rd image doesn't fit in. i don't like how some of the images are transparent. i would change the texture and the font at the bottom

I agree with all that. Color filled layers are my best friend. :) Haha. And I think the 3rd one might look less transparent-y if you duplicated all the layers. The space could be fixed with some cropping and brushes. It's pretty though! _smile.gif

for the font i would use a pixel font like the one in my signature. you can find one at dafont.com. for the texture go with something a little darker.

yeah, stick to 1. Too many textures just clutter everything up and make stuff look bad quality
Switch from hard light. That blending option is too powerful. It shows up too much know what I mean? And all it leaves is the outline of ppl.. which is not what you want.

Softlight is always the safe choice.

Sceen on 60% or so works well when you have a colorful texture. As long as you put a layer of black set to soft light on top of that layer.

Sometimes no texture is even good. A gradient always has a good impact..

I dunno
