So, I'm relatively new to this whole thing. And, by whole thing, I mean tweaking a photo more than messing with the colors and such and adding a border. I'm trying to take it up a level. Am I doing alright? Does this image look... okay, at least? xD What could I do better? I'm all ears.

And if it's good enough, or could be improved with my current skills (not vurry muny skilz), should I make it a layout?

Does the text make any sense?

I want to make it seem like she's going into "another world" via book.

I can't see it. It's a broken image or at least that's how it appears to me. Can you please try to post your image again or as an attachment?

It's pretty good!

The light coming out of her head looks kind of out of place. I'm not sure what they are there for... maybe mess with your blending modes a bit.

http://img375.imageshack.us/ifs/3193/img51...etherealou8.jpg is the link. Maybe that'll work?

Yeah. The stuff coming out of the head was something that I wasn't sure about. It's just light beams. xD

the brushes are a little blurry (ones on her back) perhaps move them back a bit?
looks pretty cool. The dots on her face are really noticeably lower the opacity. looks odd.

Oh, I can see it now. Looks cool and abstract, but the only thing I don't like is the text; like it doesn't fit with the image somehow but I guess you could leave it that way and I would focus on what everyone else said. Otherwise, nice job. thumbsup.gif

I actually like the text.. but it would probably look better if it didn't fade into such a white color.. hmm darker?
