So I was about to submit this, but I wanted some feedback on how i can improve on this or if this looks okay and what not.
 Should I choose a different font, or do you guys think it looks okay? |

Do something with the images, it looks like you just took two, and merged them together. And then put a brush and text.

^ I actually did do some coloring on them.
The original pictures were kind of dull. |

Yeah maybe a bit more coloring would make this pop. The blending looks very good. I'm just not sure about the green you chose for the font and the placement.

Font placement and it's just WAY too plain. It needs something more interesting in there.

Okay
so I changed the font and the placement of it, I added a texture, and I got rid of the brush in the top left corner and, added another brush. Is it looking any better or is it just going downhill? Thanks for the help   //edit Oh, and I changed the coloring slightly |

It has potential and I can grasp the concept of it, but it looks a bit too basic. It's like, take two images, cob them out, apply coloring, add a background texture with some brushes, and some random fonts. :\ The font, imo, should look a bit more idk "happy" to kind of give off the "smile" concept. Also, I think you should change the colors of the background and the brushes to something more brighter, like an orange-ish color. Otherwise, it's pretty good.  edit: Ok, the sunburst thing is pretty cool but I still think you should have some more warmer colors in the background. The font looks pretty choppy too and it's also hard to read kind of. The images also look kind of over sharpened. :\ |

yeah, I really don't like the font myself xP
actually, I think it looks over sharpened because of the texture. I'll play around with some colors for the background, and hopefully I'll find a better font

Oh, you don't have to remove the entire texture though, you can just erase over her on the texture layer.

The first version is way better. Sunbursts are so cliche, and the font looks even worse.
The first one is okay, but the background looks like it needs to be smoothed out, especially around the back of the heads. I think it would be nice if you added some color blotches of the green in her shirt as well. |

I hate images that say random shit like "DREAM!" or "LIVE. LAUGH. LOVE.!" especially "dream." that one is SOOOOOOO overused. |

Do you guys think I should just get rid of the text?
It kind of seems unnecessary now. |

well, I mean, once you put text on it, it's not really usable for anything else, so why submit it?
