I guess this qualifies as a photo manipulation? Dark-ish border so you may want to look at it on a white background. Stock: ![]() Completed sig: ![]() C&C please. |

I clicked on this topic expecting to find... well - anything but this, to be frank. Well done, I think that you've achieved something by actually changing the image substantially rather than (like certain others) editing the image in a very discrete way which would remove the point of doing a photo manipulation in the first place. On the sheer principle of not sounding conflicted, I find myself somewhat reluctant to criticise in this way but I feel you have done too much to the stock. I'm sorry if I'm confusing you, it's a great thing you've started at this end of the stick but I can barely distinguish the original stock in the signature. My only criticism is to change the image in such a way in which it can be classed as a different image while still allowing a comparison to be made. However, this is not to suggest you simply change the colour levels, brightness/contrast or clone parts of the image over each other. That would just be silly. Hope this helps. |

I've seen this tutorial somewhere, I must say you followed it exactly. 7/10 for prettiness. 2/10 for effort. |

Same stock, same everything honestly. I'll look around, see if I can find it. I'm not accusing you of anything, other than that there is no effort put into this whatsoever due to an exact tutorial copy. Although I really cant accuse you atm, due to me deleting my bookmarks recently. |

7/10. I like the completed image but it's too light to tell it's a city anymore. |

Not too sure about the text. I'm not sure that 'the city is so pretty' are the right words to describe it. I think it's great but it's not pretty imo. More abstract. |

I believe Al3X is quoting a song by Hollywood Undead, entitled "City", and during the song they say "The city is so pretty, would you like to burn it with me?". Just saying I think he is, not that he is. The signature, IMO, is not pretty, it's too bright to see the actual stock, but it looks good for your first photomanip. |

Ya, actually I was quoting it. i was going to make it more of a dark red and have the burn it with me part faded into it but couldn't accomplish that too well :/ |

Good job Al3X, and good luck on your future signatures! 10/10! |
