Alright blending and I like the composition.

The color on the band looks very saturated, whereas the background is really dark black and white. It doesn't look as natural as it could. Like, where's all that light coming from?

pros: I really love the coloring and the textures, and the font compliments the picture really well.
cons: Nothing, really. Maybe add something else to get rid of all the empty space? But other than that, it's perfect.

I like the design on the right side. It's a good contrast to the black and white.

The blending is kinda sloppy. For example, the tip of his nose is blue when the rest of him is black and white. I think you should have played with the black and white photo more, put a texture over the whole thing maybe. It might look more balanced that way.

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.


pros: the black and white and simplicity gives the image a really clear feeling and is nice on the eyes.
cons: the crop leaves a huge amount of whitespace, and it feels like whitespace. you need to do something to deal with the blankness. though obviously with this one you need to be careful because by just heaping on a texture or something, you'd spoil the simplicity.

Pros: I really like the text, and the cropping and pasting of the men over the top. It looks really tidy and nice.
Cons: Nothing really. It's a little sharp around the edges of the men, but that doesn't bother me too much.

Pros. I like the colors and the font placement/font effects.
Cons. I can't really tell what the image is. It seems too blurry. It looks kinda grainy and I don't know what the significence of the text is.

+: It's a nice crop.
-: Texture placement is strange and I think you could play with the coloring a bit more.

Thinking of using it as an FO banner but I don't know if it needs more?

Pros: Nice blending, good background
Cons: The text (or script, if you will) behind everything else is a bit distracting. It might just be because it's blue, though.

Pros: The base image is interesting.
Cons: The cropping is kinda boring and there's too much blank space. The coloring could stand out a bit more. It looks blurry.

Pros: the colouring is simple and nice, and the image you used is nice.
Cons: the crop makes it kinda hard to tell that it's a banana bunch. I know it is, but maybe if you zoomed out a little and included more of the image, it might look a little better?
