Concept Piece Options

I originally designed it for a poster in school (for protest), and then downsized it to fit on the screen.

It's supposed to be minimalistic and conceptual. Yes I did steal the "Don't Taze me, bro" Idea.

I agree with JC.

Im sorry but your useless posts in showcase are sort of pissing me off now, but besides that,

the image literally froze my comp for about 2 seconds, but moving beyond that, the concept you are trying to portray is very confusing. I'm guessing someone cut off her arms because she used foul language? The background texture dosent fit well and I suggest adding more colors and using different fonts. It seems like you are using Arial Bold, but if you are going for a grungy dark feel, use grungy dark text. Arial is usually a very clean font, used for clean and very simplistic designs. Also the colors clash a tad bit. try adding some red into the font or something. The black is a bit to conservative and overrated.

Use up more canvas space, but dont go overboard, there is nothing to look at except a girl and some text. Details stand out more that the general concept, which is why details are important (especially to createbloggers). I still havent been able to figure out the message portrayed in this piece. But Im guessing it's a protest to prevent censoring of bad words? It's really important to make the message stand out in a concept piece, no one is going to stand there all there to look at your photo. At most a person will usually look at this piece for about 2 seconds and not mind it afterwards.

Sorry for the long read
