Why is the font aliased?

Set the anti-aliasing to strong or something

Ack. Too awhile to load (save you blends in JPG, not PNG)
Its a pretty good blend, but I agree with Matt... the font is a little harsh.

I agree with Kristina. The text is choppy. Looks like it needs more color. But lovely blending job! flowers.gif

Blending is very nice and fantastically neat.
The brushes fit the pictures well.

It's a well thought out graphic.
Though the font isn't my favorite.

Jeebus, dont ask for C&C if you're not going to take it

First of all, the font IS really pixelly. Use anti-alias or something. The font chose is okay, but you it has too much stroke. The texture choice works well with the picture, but did you stretch it out or somthing? It looks like you did because the image quality of the texture makes the quality of the picture look bad in some places. Its either you stretched the texture, or the texture itself is just bad quality looking.

Its a pretty simple 3 person blend in a straight line. A darker border would be nice.

Also, there is nothing wrong with saving it as a .JPG. They take less time to load, and they don't mess up the picture as long as you save it at Maximum quality.

Can you do that in psp? I'd really like to know how to do that. _smile.gif My stuff loses quality sometimes so i'm just curious. biggrin.gif Haha.

Anyways, to the topic.

Yes, the font is pixelly. It's not just someones computer, since lots of people have been saying so. Andd I think the first picture would look better mirrored/facing the other direction. Other than that, it's pretty and good blending!

First of all, didn't I say the font was pixelly on YOUR computer, not mine. Also, I didn't stretch out the texture, I set the setting to Multiply, so get that straight also. Third of all, maybe I wanted it to be in a straight line. The border came with the pics so I left it on there. Last, if I think there is something wrong with saving it as a .JPG, that's business. pinch.gif

Really? It asks you that automatically in PS when you save stuff
This pops up--> x

TATiisoHO0D, sorry for saying all that stuff, but I wasn't in a good mood at all, all day. It just looks like the texture is stretched out.. it was probably like that originally so thats not your fault. There is nothing wrong with straight line blending. Its just that your really good at blending, so it would be awesome if you'd tried to experiment more by having pictures all over the place, not only in a straight line. It would be cool if you added a border around the whole thing so it would hide the borders of the originals. You can stick with png's if you want. But mind you, people with dial up visit here, or slow computers and such. There is no harm saving it as a jpeg.

What I said is my opinion. I'm sorry if you don't agree with it, but you asked for the C&C. Maybe from now on I'll just say nothing but "Good job" if it makes you happy

I guess I was in a bad mood also, I say things and then I soon regret them. Thanks for saying I was really good at blending, I want to learn other things but idk right now...lol. But maybe I should just try and accept you guys' C&C, but I am a bold person. I tend to say things back, that's just how I am. And no you don't have to make me happy, I will just take your C&C. So say something other than Good job, and I will try not to say anything back. =] I promise (hopefully)..lol biggrin.gif
