Thinking of you, wherever you are. We pray for our sorrows to end, and hope that our hearts will blend. Now I will step forward to realize this wish. And who knows? Starting a new journey may not be so hard... Or maybe it has already begun. There are many worlds, but they share the same sky... One sky, one destiny. -Kairi I learned a few new things in Photoshop today. Woo! One of them being not everything has to have blue in it to look good. Comments, please. They make me feel loved and appreciated.
Kairi doesn't blend with the background at all, and the text is very difficult to read. Also, the contrast is kinda unpleasant. Too bright in the middle. Pretty decent otherwise.
They're alright, but the text in the signature is a bit hard to read, try adding some sort of shading behind it to help bring it out more (but not too much.). And you should probably erase that bit of brush (I'm presuming it is.) that is on Kairi's neck it sort of distracting from everything else. And Kairi looks like she needs to be blended in a bit more too. The blending and the brush bit on her neck also applies to the avatar as well. The colours you chose look really nice though, keep up the good work. :3
i like it but i think you need to blend kairi in more with the background, maybe smudge the sides of kairi and also maybe add a back shadow in the test ;D other wise nice work =D
The text is tough to read with the white spots behind it, and Kairi doesn't blend in at all; it looks like you just slapped a Kairi render onto your background. The backgrounds itself is a bit chaotic, but it looks okay. Also, I don't know if you were trying to make a light source with that white spot behind the first line of text, but if you were, then it works pretty well. Try to add more color; it's a bit too red for my taste. Overall, not bad.
I didn't use dissolve on any of my layers. o_O Are you talking about the splatter brush in the lower left corner by her shoulder? EDIT: I still have this open in Photoshop at the moment, and I just blurred that section a bit, and it looks better now.
Make the text smaller. Takes far too much away from the focus, which Kairi, I'm assuming. There's no real flow to this, to be honest when I look at it I can't focus on one thing without immediately getting distracted by something else. I think that may have something to do with the background. I'd say look up tutorials on dA or just Google something.
I love how at first people were like "The text is too hard to read, make it stand out more" and now they're like "The text stands out too much. Make it less visable." Make up your mind...
Because there's a middle ground. Generally don't put light colors on light backgrounds, because it is damn near impossible to make it visible without making it stand out too much. Again, I'd suggest looking up a tutorial. Right now, all I see is the text when I first look at it, then I notice Kairi. Unless that's what you're going for, I'd recommend changing it.
