Woah woah wait just a second.
Exiled Shadow, your art actually belongs in the Art Gallery, not in the Graphics section, and not only that, you didn't read the first post, and as a result did not rate Ezzo's piece.
Next,
Froslass Maniac, that was a very very poor rate, and I hope that if you happen to post here again, you will give the above poster a rate worth their time. Otherwise I'll have to take action. ;<
Anyway, I find a few things wrong with your tag in my opinion. First of all, you've covered up your focal. I understand you're probably trying to blend in your png with the rest of the effects, but covering it up with that soft-brushing is a no-no. Especially since it's all in one solid color. The background looks completely copy-paste, since there's no action in it. It's just the same thing from the left to the right. And finally, the default font, the gradient, the lack of blending: All that points to the fact that the text needs work.
My suggestions are, first, remove the blue... whatever on the pokemon. Second, nuke the text entirely. It's unsalvagable as it is now- it has no 'place'. It's just floating there, impeding on the rest of the tag. If you want to add the text, put it elsewhere, change the font, do something to make it look less MS Paint.
Although I don't think there's really much you can do to make me like this tag, since I hate the background and focal placement. xD; The only thing I really like about this tag is the white orbs, and those look a bit over-contrasted.
My two cents. <3
Ezzo, that "K"
is it a k? is waaaayyy over sharpened. D: I don't like how dark he is compared to the background- makes him feel like he's standing out too much? Kind of hard to look at if you know what I mean. There's this weird distortion across the entire tag, like, it's blurry here, but oversharpened there, but none of it has any relation to depth or anything. It's confusing. xD I do love that pinkish, reddish, orangish color, the letter I think is a K, and just that general thing, I love. Everything else I can't say the same. D:
but you know I love all your other stuff, so. ;D
I sorta kinda tried imitating parallelines' style. Er, I ended up deviating at about the fifth layer, because at that point it looked fine in terms of imitation, but I have this... weird need to have a million layers. So here we are at twenty-one layers. xD;;
