Richie: It's very... vibrant. I think some of your previous work of the same style turned out better, to be honest. It is indeed very shiny (if you like that sort of thing), and it's got talent behind it. But the pink and red clash a lot, and there's something iffy about the side borders that I can't put my finger on. The renders look nice though; not too sharpened or anything. As for text, I prefer the bottom one, though I personally think it'd look better if the gaps between the lines were smaller. Bishoujo Kage: Really, the text is distractingly bad. The font, the blending, the outer glow... not much of it matches. The render looks alright, and the background's not shabby at all (too bad it doesn't seem like you made it). And I can see where you just slapped on some brushes, considering there's not much blending. Render placement is a little awkward. Colors aren't too bad, though I can't comment more due to personal taste bias. Not bad, but not particularly good either. Tiltyu: To be honest, I don't really like the font on the first and third ones. Something about the sepia-ish tone and the text combination about the first one bothers me. Overall, the first doesn't stand out much. The second one is nice, and probably my favorite of the set. It's bright, but not violent on the eyes with colors. For the third, again, I'm not huge on the text. Tiny text is too prominent, and the main text is so-so. The render and red are nicely done, though the grunge at the bottom is a little strange. The last one is good, but really oversharpened in my opinion. Good icons, but I liked your previous ones more. Feez: The lowered-opacity text is eh. I figure you used a 1-pixel black border just for the sake of having a border? Besides that, the banner looks quite nice, with a controlled sort of chaos. I think the contrast in colors is a little too low, but that seems to be your style. |

Pretty good, my only complaint is how the black sort of overcontrasts against the tan background. If I'd have done it, I'd have lightened the black to a darker brown of some sort, but that's just me. Text is good, but there's not much special about it, with that sort of simplistic style I like the make the text different shades of colors to make it more interesting.

Pretty good, I like the lighting and text. I need help making text for this, my usual stuff isn't looking all too good.

Feez, you're going to have to give a little more than that. This topic was made for genuine critique. So, please. :[ I'll get back to you and Richie tomorrow morning, I promise. <3 |

Well, I really can't think of anything worthy of commenting on in such a long paragraph, unless you want me to rant on about how it's so good. And ok, I'll wait for GREAT JUSTICE. |

Anyway, as for the banner, I like the swirly ameba effect it's got going. However, it looks a little bright in some places, almost as if it was pasted on quickly. Another problem I have is that it's really sharp around alot of the edges, probably from rotating it too much. The character in it could also be a bit more vibrant. Try playing around with color effects. ![]() My turn... Been a while.

Oh my fucking God. Is all I have to say. Those are my favorites from you in a long, long time. Now... as for a little advice, I'll do my best. The first one is to dark for my taste. The more brighter avatars are yours are always my favorite. That's more of an opinion rather than a suggestion though. Let's see... Again, on the third one, I think you could have done something better with the border. Overall all three were just amazing.

If that's addressed to me, I asked specifically for text help, but thanks for the general critique anyways. As for the three avatars, only the first one appeals to me. I like how the background slowly blends into its seperate colors. The text is placed properly as well. The other two are decent, but I really like the first one a whole lot more. Now someone help me.

Feez, I took your banner to Photoshop and tried out fonts. What gave me the most trouble was the render placement; had you not centered it, it would have been much easier to create a balanced look. I've always frowned upon centering, but if you can figure something out, more power to you. I'm going to agree with KZ for Tiltyu's avatars. The second one is a little meh overall, with the colors (purple and orange look a little strange) and render usage being just mediocre, and the third is pretty good but nothing special. The first has good blending and text, and overall looks very pretty. |

Feez, when the entire banner doesn't really offer a contrasted enough place for text, all you need to do is place some kind of shape, whether it be a box or a rounded rectangle or whatever, and then place the text in that. |
