K, I'ma just say this now, follow the rules or don't post here at all. I could point out a ton of flaws, but I am not a jerk and it is better for the creator to find them out for themselves. The two things I will mention is the Link render and the other render on the right doesn't really help with the tag. Second, Rarely do Transparent renders work. Try putting Zelda's Opacity to 100%. It really takes away from the render. Text isn't needed, but can add another element to the tag. If your bad with text, don't put it on until you are satisfied with your text.
EDIT* Oh, and as for placement, the best spots to put text are near the render/focus, so as to not draw away from your focus area.

Sorry, how does pointing out flaws make you a jerk? It's called constructive criticism, and if the creator can't take it, he/she just shouldn't post it in a graphics forum, asking for comments/crit.
Everything else he said was right, anyway. You should try smudging a bit more, adding new colours and smudging them on new layers. Also try smudging details in. Decent job, though.

Where did you get the brushes from?

As for brushes
New version, changed the opacity and composition, and moved the transparent renders around. All feedback is appreciated

And the new version is a lot better, very nice smudge. Though it would look better if it was on the other side of the render, good job!

And Erebus Deathbrand, thank you for the praise
Beefstew, I use Gimp. I'm planning to get photoshop but I can't afford it (or be bothered to download a cracked version, shhhhh! XD And you're right, the swirl would look much better on the other side. Arg... Noo. Well, I'll change it around when I have time.
Thanks for all the comments people, I really appreciate it

Oh, new version. I played around with some colors and moved the twirl to the other side. I'm not sure about the blue on the right and I can't decide whether or not to have that black thing on the side. But yeah, I think it turned out pretty cool.. A little overkill maybe

I'd make the thing hanging down on her forehead a little more star like, so it matches the earrings.
