Looks really nice, but you can see where the picture ends because its not covered up with fire. whistling.gif I would just fix that. thumbsup.gif rolleyes.gif

TBH, I don't like it all. If you were aiming for an album cover then it would look much reasonable, but I don't think it's a great picture to show. I'm not criticizing your work, trust me it looks very cool. I'm just saying that this type of style doesn't go well with the subject, in my opinion.

understandable.. thanks for the critique . . can you elaborate why it doesnt work well ?

Is it because of the actual picture used? . . if so that is the pic she requested.

Is it the effect i was going for ?

Let me know so i can work on it _smile.gif

Sort of. The subject's picture looks too plain. I was thinking more of a darker tone on her skin, more of a evil theme, and that sort of sexiness from Jennifer's Body.

Basically:

The Effect =/= Normal Myspace type picture mellow.gif
The Effect = Darker Theme persona thumbsup.gif

i agree with beenly


although i don't know what you can do to resolve this if that's the pic she wants used. it's just borderline impossible to make a cheesy camera phone mirror picture look like anything more than that you know? but that's not really your fault.

i didn't read any of the other responses cuz i dont have the time but im gonna quickly give you c&c;
1] picture qualities mesh w/ each other. not good. have high res pics for both instead of one shabby and one high.
2]what are those dots on the bottom of the fire? it looks really wierd and out of place.
3]lighting in the pic doesnt match lighting of everything else
4]there's smoke at the top but every where else there isn't
5]when working w/ fire; you should have light reflecting from the flames onto the pic itself unless you want the burning effect in which you should burn the edges etc
6]the edges of the pic can be seen.

i like the colors and effects on teh font but things like perspective and lighting should be taken into consideration when you do something liek this

good luck. thumbsup.gif


thanks, imma try and fix up some of these things

You got kinda lazy with the fire on the letters. All duplicate letters also have duplicate fire patterns.

Imo I don't like the font and the size of it
Too spacey between letters and the font just looks meh
or that there is fire on that too. makes the fire look overused
