Hmm. Maybe add some more pictures and colors and brushes. And maybe change the "Fantastique" font to a much less common one.

^ I agree. Try experimenting with more colors and brushes. Theres a lot of colors you can use. I also think that for the brushes over her face, maybe lower the opacity or choose a different one, because the dark ones look weird. Maybe some more texture/grundge-ish type brushes will give off more to it. But use more color as well. The brush color blends in with everything but the images , so I would say take some color off of that. Otherwise not bad.

the 2nd version is nice, except for those texture brushes over everything. more colors = much better. The font for fantastique is.....eh. I think you could use a better font.
otherwise, good job. |

I like the first version more. There's more colors, and the font you're currently using for 'fantastique' doesn't go with the whole layout.

Looks pretty good, I like the 2nd one the best. You should definitely change the font for your site name though. It doesn't look very good with the rest of the layout.

I like the new one. Not the new V.2 looks awkward.

I really like the tone/saturation of the first one, though the colors of the second are really nice.

2nd image looks nice but i agree with mark on the change of font.... try something other then what comes with the computer.
as for the 2nd image, the brushes and image looks fine yet the texture looks a bit excessive. although the colors in the texture looks lovely on the image. |

 So um yeah Group: Official Designer Posts: 745 Joined: Aug 2006 Member No: 459,873 |
The first new version definitely looks cooler although the second one really stands out... It's more unique than the first one.
I definitely agree with everyone else on changing the font
