First Photoshop collage thing i made in like 4 months. Took me like 1.5-2 hours. Most images were used from sxc.hu. Does it have potential? :nerd:

brighten it up abit. it looks very flat. almsot like there is a black layer on top with transparency. contrast!!!

[funkyjones]

indeed! It's way too dark..

[mdjstudios]

Yeah i was thinking it was a bit too dark

Who doesn't use that butterfly image from sxc.hu?
But apart from that, it's pretty good. I would bring out the sign a little bit and don't make it come out of 'nothing'. Oh, and the butterfly needs some blending. He's just to 'copy and paste' right now.
It sure has potential.

Okay, ill fix it later. I just dont know what i can do to it to make it look better or more creative or artistic.

Yeah, your right, i just copied/pasted the bfly without blending it. Wasn't sure if i were gonna use it or not.

Add some vector art to it :P but grunged vector. Like rainbows and insane dinosaurs with mittens on. Well that is what I would do... :P
