So, this is kind of like the "rate the" threads, but with a twist.
In this thread, what you do is state at least one good thing and one bad thing about the graphic above, and then post a graphic of yours. This is for icons, banners, wallpapers, anything. It just has to be yours, since the point is to help everyone improve their stuff through constructive criticism.
It seems like a lot of stuff gets ignored in the specific threads or just doesn't get adequate criticism, so I figured this would help.
Hopefully other people find this as useful as I think it will be. "/

Ooh, I like this thread!

Pros: Amazing coloring and good text placement.
Cons: Something about the texture seems a little off. Maybe it should be on the other side, because with the text there it seems a little busy.

oops, that was for Sarah.

Pros: I like how Gerard is placed. Overall, it's great.
Cons: I feel like the empty space on the right could use more.

Pro: I LOVE the colors, it's so vibrant.
Con: I feel like, since there are two focal points, you end up with your eye right in between them, looking at nothing.

Pros: Great colouring, and the blue and pink tones really suit the image.
Cons: I think a duplicated sharpened layer on low opacity would make it look a bit better.
But really, I'm just saying that to have a con. It looks perfect to me.

pros: the cropping is great
cons: that light texture doesn't really fit with the image. it's very distracting.

pro - I really like the texture/effect you have used.
con - can't say there's anything wrong, because i really like it. but if anything, maybe do something else with the text. (maybe could have tried making it green)
