[GMM]

Hey guys,

Bottom one is nice, except for the fact that you need to remove the black in the corners (save as png not gif o.O )
The top one completely sucks :no:

Render looks stretched, bg behind it looks plain, font doesnt really match, the snow on top looks pretty realistic but the falling snow doesnt look like the now on top/bottom

But the bottom one is very nice :yes:

Yeah you kinda need more work
the snow covers too moch in 11st and is too bright
and the 2nd is like multi colored :S

More work absolutely needed.. I tought this should go to Graphic showcase?? But nvm, some advice for u.. Learn some blending for render (most important part at sigs) , The sigs have too much colour on it.. and looks busy..

I do some editing for u (dunno whether its better or worse) coz I didnt have ur .PSD file.

As u can see.. Light is comin from the right bottom , so do some lightning effect on it.. and I have no clue wot is the red thing there.. It just hurt my eyes , so I do change the colour.. Put depth by using Curves/Level (In this stage , Im using Level) , and choose good stock/render , 3D is preferable , dun make it so busy.. , put nice font text..

PS: Its just my oppinion.

Peace
