thanks guys, I’m glad you liked it. I wasnt sure if i could have improved more, but instead just decided it was done. I like it too, but i feel like the focus of it isnt very clear. Maybe if the text were easier to read? What do you all think? ---

Good Start li0n! Just something I noticed, and that bothered me, is when you marquee’d out those clouds? Well a great technique, that I use all the time, is to use blending gradients. For example : Press x then d, to set your black to white colors. Click on the layer of the clouds, and create a layer mask. Now click on the gradient tool, and uptop, select it to be, Foreground to Background. This is where the time comes when you do what you think seems right, select an appropriate gradient style, and along the edges of the clouds, great a gradient, so the outcome seems to be it’s slitly disapeering. Another thing you could do, would be, take the eraser tool, on the main layer, set the opacity to like 4 or 5%. And with a larger eraser, spend some time making the cloud edges look soft. Don’t Flamm me for helping please 🙂 Good Luck! ---

sweet, man. Definitely wierd, i like it. Id agree with grinch that using gradients would help it though, just to help blend the images in the sky better. what did you use from mine, i cant tell? ---

OOOPS! I never saved before I uploaded! Check it out again. I forgot about the additions I had made. I’ve never really known how to use masks grinch. Thanks for the tip. I’m giving them a shot now. Remember this is my first time! I will always remember it 😉 So any tips are most appreciated. Anything to make this experience better! Moncrey, thanks for the compliment. Your kids are in the clouds next to the mushroom cloud. I got the idea from the movie THEM! anyone seen it? It’s mad old. A black and whiter. Excited for next round! I love this battle stuff Cheers! ---
