And I agree with you. This wallpaper has potential, but right now, it's not very good, neither graphically or technically speaking. Overall, it's a very inconsistent wallpaper, with the qualities of the images all being different from each other. For example, the image of Kira on the left has a very good resolution, while the image on the right of Kira holding Cagalli's hand looks very choppy and pixelated. That dove on the upper left corner... not a fan of it. And, regarding the background, it's not bad at all, but it's too white. I like the gradient of colors though. Anyway, this has a lot of potential, like you said, and it would be good to see you exploit it. Keep it up.

Yea, it's totally OK.. for me though, it's just too much of too many things. Perhaps making it more simple, but then again that's just my taste. It's not bad though! Good job, keep working..

I find this wall too crowded. using too many scans takes up too much space. that destroys the chances of any kind of interesting composition and suppresses the bg, which is often the place that wallers get to show their skill and creativity. generally, you should pick one image to focus on and develop the wall for that one image. (since you are using "cherish the moment", i'd say that's best connected with his moments with stellar. ;D) but of course, quality is something you'll have to seriously consider. it is a key factor in deciding whether you'll get rejected. and why do some of the edges for shinn (the one of him suited up and the one of him with stellar) look smudged? you should keep your scans nice and clean.

once you've corrected the issue with using so many scans, you can then work on the bg (for now, all i can say about the bg is that that dove in the top left hand corner is too realistic. you always want to make sure realism is not a problem when working with anime images. that's very important.)

i also say that text effects are best unused and that you pick another font. and the positioning is not quite thoughtful just yet. but once you have more room to be original with after picking your focal scan, you can make the text position seem more natural than just having it up there in the corner.

that's about it for now. good luck and keep on working :D

I think the text is not that convincing..
And also I can see some jagged lines of your extraction..

Thanks for the tips! I edited it now:

Critism and tips would be appreciated =)

Well i think teh text still dosent match very well i would also make the other people a little less noticeable i found it distracting from the main image.

I think the paper looks alright. All of the pictures in there are of different media, it seems some are from manga, others anime, and some even by different artists. That sort of detracts from the unity of the peace.

Also, the yellow spark in the corner is very annoying, its way to bright and keeps me from even looking at that section of the paper.

Also, were you going for the memories feeling to it? I'm assuming so.
