You need to work on cutting better, nobody is going to use something that looks jagged and half-done.
But it does say unfinished... Also, it looks like you stretched the second image. That's a big no-no. |

I agree, work on the cutting on the first one.
Also the 2nd isn't too bad. Just the font is terrible. Look at the surroundings and pick a colour that could match the photo. So for the font pick a shade of green possibly and do something else with the font. Its too boring and plain |

The cutting in the first one is...not good.
As for the second one, you need to resize it a bit and sharpen. I agree with Natalie about the text, too. For both, you probably should do a little retouching. Just a little contrast would even make them look better. |

I think the second one still looks like you slapped stuff over the original image without any real blending. You probably already know what I have to say about the cutting on the first one.
I really like the colors in both of them, though. |

The first one is cut really bad, and the second on is a little grainy. The font in the first on looks good, and like mark said, the colors are nice in both of them. I like the greens in the second one. It's a really nice photo of her too.

First let me say that both those girls are incredibly hot.
The first one looks like you added text and you took another image and cut it badly and added the layer. Might I suggest when cutting, don;t use the magic select tool, no matter how tempting. There are not many situations when you'll be able to cut time using it. Instead use the paths tool all around whatever your cutting, and then change it to a selection, and if the background is like red, and your pasting it onto something that isn't red, it may be a good idea to shrink the selection one pixel and then feather it, 3 or 5. The second one...ummm, an image, text, and a brush. Could have done this in mspaint. And there both a bit basic. Do stuff with text already. Give it a glow or something. I will say though...your eye has gotten a little better when it comes to choosing colors. But it is apparent, that even though though it may have taken you, an hour it looks like a job that could have been done in 10 minutes. |

I thought I was getting better than when I last posted stuff on here. You need to work on cutting better, nobody is going to use something that looks jagged and half-done. But it does say unfinished... Also, it looks like you stretched the second image. That's a big no-no. Which one, the Ashley one or the Emma Watson one? I agree, work on the cutting on the first one. Also the 2nd isn't too bad. Just the font is terrible. Look at the surroundings and pick a colour that could match the photo. So for the font pick a shade of green possibly and do something else with the font. Its too boring and plain Okay. I have some edits up now. EDITS---

THe cut out looks much better.
As for the text on the second one try using a less bright colour. here are some ideas? #779806 #63771F #8D9C5A also, one thing ive learned with fonts on pictures is curly-ish fonts dont always go well with a few pictures. One font i use a lot is Kravitz |

That font does make it look so much better. I would try and find a different brush though. The one you used is to big and busy for the photo, imo.

Wow so many edits. But yeah I'm glad you cleaned up the Ashley one although now she looks low in quality and stretched out. I assume you're going to add another image of her? For your Emma one it looks good right now but I dk about the brush. It seems a tad random. Iono, you should do something else to it, imo. And it's not really a blend at this point lol

I guess I'll add another pic of her if that would make it better. Which ashley looks stretched out? I can't really tell. |

First let me say that both those girls are incredibly hot. No. Just no. Anyways. xD You're definitely better than me at cutting around hair But that Assley one looks like the other one you did. And the Emma Watson one has a watermark which I think is spelt wrong (Angle? wth? xD) IMO, they're way too basic. |

It's foreverangle.info instead of foreverangel.info I made a typo when signing up for it. & okay. I'll work on them. |

I think you definitely got better with colors and the cutting looks great in the Ashley one (edit). I also think the Emma Watson one (2nd edit) is alright but maybe if you moved the text up and to the right a wee bit it would look a little better. I also think that in the Emma Watson one (2nd edit), the brush should be like a yellow-greenish color instead of a blueish color. I agree with Natalia that you should do a bit more to the Emma Watson one, so like maybe add some little stars or something or glowing swirls? Otherwise, it looks pretty good. Great job.
