"Err i think the text should either be white or gray...
i dont really know what im looking at in the top center there...and the gray thing on the left
probably need to adjust the levels in the image on the right because her sleeves are too white, there needs to be more darker shades maybe"

Why Did this Naruto Paper get rejected?

"I sometimes think that if youve never got a wallpaper accepted, they dont know what you are capable of and maybe think you ripped someones work for the bg...unless you can prove you made the tech bg then i guess i dont know....
but letterbox wp's arent that good of a layout
composition isnt that interesting...perhaps put him in front of the yingyang and center it
the txt has got to go"

First wallpaper:IRON MAN

3 years 3 hours ago

"Usually i would say "no" to metallic text, but now is a good time to whip out them photoshop actions and style effects. photoshop comes with some metallic style settings already. you should apply them, but i wouldnt just leave em black and white, or that familiar gold/blue chrome thing...just add some red overlay to the text maybe
the jet looks too..realistic i suppose...if you tightened up the level adjustment settings or higher contrast, you would get bolder whites/blacks on the jet which would make it match more with the way iron man is drawn/inked"

"To tell yah the truth, it would get rejected
but to save you from losing paper, dont submit

one thing that usually doesnt work out well is ghosting, which is "enlarging a picture and lowering the opacity" esp if its the same picture. a different picture would look better in most cases...
and if a big head takes up most of the canvas, it doesnt leave much room to get creative
the border that is applied on the smaller picture to me seems like a way to avoid extracting pictures, and doesnt look interesting"

well this is my fifth try

"Looks like she is on a swing of some sort..but wheres the other chain on the left? maybe want to highlight them more
also since her clothes are blue add a new fill layer of blue set to soft light 50% to kinda blend it all in...or you could do brown to make it afternoonish
the background kinda has too many filters applied to it and it kinda looks like a oatmeal raisin cookie
the light brown cloud on her rear and legs is kinda odd"

Noir Wallpaper

3 years 1 week ago

"Its not very exciting to look at...thus kind of a boring composition
the pic of mirelle is really bad looking...i dunno maybe make it match the background to make it like pop art>? that would take alot of recoloring/redrawing...but might not look good in the end
like what ive been doing recently is putting a little bit of tilt in my pictures to make them more interesting to look at
see how her hair flies upward? you could tilt the entire frame a little clickwise
and also since theres alot of black in here, you could make her picture almost shilouette by painting most of the mid and dark tones only leaving the highlights the normal color"

What can be improved?

"You should go back and sharpen some of your background parts..
and the guy on the right is too blurry...remove the duplicate layer that you put him in, or set it to soft light
yeah and get rid of the guy on the left"

"That guy looks confused in that picture, i dont really know why you like it...it is a boring pose and facial expression to go along with a boring composition
maybe instead of having them face each other, it might be better to have them back to back and use something as the line that seperates them"

FLCL wall, want opinion

"You need to work on the composition some...from what you have, i would flip those circles horizontally and move em to the right. along with the letters
if you were to add something in the top right corner in its current state, it would really throw off the uhh layout
maybe even rotate the circles horizontally becuase its odd that they just go downward ;/
dont even worry bout text until you are almost done"

"I have no idea what this is.looks like 80's anime?
anyways, its all just a big blur, esp that...scropion
the font choice is bad
whats up with the random light blue diagonal lines?
are those red and blue ellipse shaped thing galaxies?...might want to try and uhh make your own instead of using someone elses and then using blending modes"

"Err i would delete this thread and post again when you have done more because to me this looks like nothing but 3 layers = funky bg+scan+ugly text

please dont use that font in the finish work, because it doesnt look good in any situation
the scan, tho neatly extracted, could use some clean up beacuse of the grainyness...you could try messing with low level/setting surface blur, it should take the grain right out"

then squish all the text closter together towards the middle

your text is barley readable because its so.uhh thin...how bout a bold font
wouldnt it be better to call it...

i use quickmask all the time when extracting scans. the advantage of quickmask i think is the easy ability to add or remove a selction and switch between selection and edit mode
if you dont have photoshop i really dont know what other alternatives you could use"
