I think I may have fluffed it on the text, but still. C&C?

No real Focal here. Text is okay.

The effects are awesome, but like Brandon said, there isn't really a focal point. The only thing that immediately catches my eye is the bright patch of smokey-stuff roughly in the middle, and I'm going to assume that that isn't what you want your focal to be. ;).gif

There is a focal point, it just isn't in the middle of the sig, which is a good thing.

I would say this is a definate contender for your best mate. Those here might not think so, but designs on Graphics forums would probably say so.

She barely knows what she's saying herself. Her posts take less thought than breathing.

Srsly, look at her previous posts <.<.

That is a badass effect. I wanna know how you pulled that one off, looks damn great. I'd say it's very near one of your best. My suggestions for improvement that'd make it flawless are to erase some of the smoky effect that's over the stock, especially some of the black parts and the stuff that's over important parts (for example the black over the fretboard, a little of the black dot-ish part just above the pickups, and go with a lower opacity over the headstock). I think your focal would be also a little more exaggerated and it would look generally better if you defined/contrasted the space between the stock and the colorful smoky effect to the right on it. There's a veeeeery gradual transition, and I think it'd accentuate the focal if you made that a lot less gradual. See where his eye is, drop a line straight down the sig, and either completely erase or drop the opacity a lot from that line to the left a little bit.

I already spotted that problem, the original version was at full saturation, which didn't differentiate at all really, and the second version all of it was lower saturation. So I decided to use a layer mask and a bi-linear gradient to make the object have full saturation and the smoke have less so.

^Ah, I can see that when I look at it. Smart. It does help the contrast between the two, but it is a bit hard to see if you don't look closely too.

Yeah, methinks I set the offset of the gradient too low.

Wow i love it, its really good. I dont think the cloud smoky thing is the focal point, my eye was pulled toward the guitar first, but then defiantly the cloud attracted my attention. But the colours seem to all match really well.

you may want to make the cloud less intense, but seriously i think it could be easily put aside. I think this ones really good.

Apart from the constipated weirdo with a guitar, it's really cool...XP
