Re: The Photo Manipulation and Creation Thread

This seems like the place to have photos critiqued and stuff, so here's two images I modified in Gimp last week. What do you guys think?

This one reminds me of anime or a Mortal Kombat energy bolt thing.

I'm not terribly happy about how the flames came out on this one, but I don't think it's too bad for a first attempt.

Re: The Photo Manipulation and Creation Thread

Your Signature is great Yoder, Your avatar bugs me though, too slow a transition from transparent to color perhaps.

Re: The Photo Manipulation and Creation Thread

yeah, you can kinda see a line. Back to the gradient tool mini/bigsmile

Results

1st Place (Second Entry)
Rea Brick - The Gimp work was great, I laughed at the idea and you followed the rules exactly. I bet you, that it would cost £1000 for the full version, then once used you could upgrade for only £100! mini/wink

2nd Place
TDog186 - You obviously worked hard on this entry, made completely from scratch but next time, work on the perspective more, it's a bit out of place.

3rd Place
UniLego - You used stock images, but the perspective and overlay look was the one that worked with the real feel of it being on a can. You were the only person to try this, but next time work on the actual work.

Honorable Mention
Yoder - Not too interesting, but it looked quite realistic. Less stock next time!

Over to you Real Brick.

Re: The Photo Manipulation and Creation Thread

Okay, I already have a theme, I'll just work out the little details first. I should have it up later today.

Re: The Photo Manipulation and Creation Thread

Personally, I think Yoder should have gotten 2nd place. But what do I know? mini/tongue
