Hmm the picture´s cute...but it need´s work on the outlines...and some smoothing to remove fragments...
the text is cutoff, the cat and the bunny look pixelated...(also the cat has extraction issues as well...^^")
and...what´s the idea with that shell...it looks a little "misplaced" (so does the cat)
however the chara has potential, i´d like to see how it turns out...^^

Are you taking a smaller reso picture and stretching it out? or is the scan just poor quality? the cut needs work and im not sure on what concept/feel you were going for. it seems like she is just floating in the middle of nowhere. keep working on it though cause i can see a lot of good coming from this attempt.
first wallpapers are the HARDEST btw so goodluck

It's very good. I think you should feather the edges of all the stuff in the bottom-right corner. You can really see thet cuttage, and I think that would help.
Your logo you got on teh bottom right is really bad in quality.. Also your character is sorta not matching with the bg because its not as sharp and not quite blended into it.. Simply put, it looks like a scan on top of grass.. Put some shadows and stuff and make it look like it's actually part of the scenery...
Please don't call me puppychow. *stabs username with a spork* Phoenix will do.
Thanks for having pateince and leaving suggestions
I am still really new at this and I have never worked with photoshop before
Anyway here is what I changed
I know the grass and stuff still needs some work on the edges and I do not know if the colors look okay

Wow, this is really good for your first attempt with Photoshop! I think you're missing one of the major things the other users were pointing out though-- the extraction on the girl is really sketchy and looks pretty shoddy. I'd look around for some tutorials on using the pen tool / polygon tool for extraction. With the polygon tool (I'm not sure if this is a Photoshop feature or not) I always set it to anti-alias and it always turns out beautiful! (Unless I screw up royally.)
Hm, and to be honest--I liked the grass-type effect you used in your second-last version much better ^^
Hope I've been able to help.

Getting lots better as you go! the cut still needs work tho, but you're doing a better job at blending the cut into the bg. mess around with that and then with blending it more and you'll be pretty set.
Yeah. I agree with assie-chan, the other grass fit much better. Maybe a cast shadow onto the grass would help to make the image fit in better?
And yeah, your extraction needs work. It also seems like you might have an "outer glow" effect on it? If you are, it's giving the illusion that you didn't cut close enough to the outline when you extracted. Also, you cut inside the outline in some places, outside of it in others. Ideally you should be cutting on the line, but if you're going to pick one or the other, stick with it consistently.
Aside from the extraction issues, it's turning out well. The character pose is nice, you've edited it well color/light wise, and I like the logo and the little animals you've picked (though the logo is a little grainy. Shrinking it would probably be the easiest solution if you can't find another higher resolution copy) These images have decent logos on them if you can't find anything better.
And good luck on your first wall, I'm still trying to work up the courage to actually submit something here. ^-^

Hey eenlikebean
thanks for the pics :)
thanks for the pics :)
I think you've done really well,to be honest the first one wasn't bad but alot of stuff needed fixing but the last attempt was real good in comparison.youv'e really changed alot ^_^ i think its great but the last one, the grass looks like i...(i can't think iof the word for it)... anyways it looks a bit sharp like its pasted on like patches, maybe you could try smoothing it down, but iyou shoudn't listen to too much of what i say because i can't do any better,
well good luck ^.^
well good luck ^.^
Like it a lot :)

I think your character extraction looks really blurry. not just that, but the edges don't seem to be done as well as they could be. also, your title at the bottom is edited in a really low quality. it could be done A LOT better. it just takes a long time.
other than that, i like the original background you used with the sky better. just leave out the random pictures inserted into it and i think it would look a lot nicer.
keep trying! you'll get this eventually if you don't give up! hope it works out for you!
