My design site is officially called Crash & Crave Designs.
The layout is at

I love the layout, tell me what you think.

I don't like the main font you used for "Crash & Crave". The small script text you used around Katy Perry is blurry.

Some of those images in the circular shapes could have been a little better quality, and I just think the brackets for Latest Designs is a little bit cheesy.

Overall, I like the way you used the main subject though.

1. There are a *lot* of jagged edges on that body.
2. Why is she blotchy and yellow in some parts?
3. Take out that random bar going through the middle
4. Text at the back is blurry/bad quality
5. Take out that horrible outline thing you have around a lot of the stuff
6. That font doesn't really suit the design imo

And I can't help the jagged edged, I found this in officialpsds.com
The blotchy shit is the shadow from the sun I believe in the original picture.
I like the bar.
How do you figure, it's not supposed to be readable.
I like the outline.
I also like the font.

Once again, just because something came a certain way doesn't make it right. You either have to fix it or not use it at all.

I like parts, but nothing is really cohesive. The clouds, scratches, and bulk text in the back look okay...just not with that image, font, or all those bold shapes you used. It's half old school, ghetto myspace site and half classy resource site.

This.

Some things are easy to fix like the text or the sun lighting you mentioned from the original image. I agree 100% with what Firath said and I think if you could make those changes instead of just saying "how much I love this or that and want it stay", your image would come out so much better.

You wanted comments, you get them. If you want to grow as a designer, you have to step away from the "OMGIMSOAWESOME" personality and listen to what people say.

Oh. And fix that blotchy spot.

Could you at least try to be open to c&c...
