You are harsh, but I like your honesty Thank you:hair:

Well, let’s take it in the positive light. It wouldn’t be a bad color scheme or striping pattern for, perhaps, a barbie scooter. I’m being serious, everything has an application, and if you’re happy with your work, that’s what matters.

Well here I go…:run: submiting to barbie :beam: na just playin, but yea…that is true, I am happy w/ my work.
(besides the background pink, what does it look like? b/c i put that on last minute as a backdrop. I was very tired, and I am color blind, so it takes me a while to pick color schemes. )

how about a darker shade of blue, or white?

infact i kinda like it. my question is why did you used a bitmap backgroud that simple if you could draw that in flash?

that’s mean. :stuck_out_tongue:

Garret: Don’t worry, I can’t design in Flash either. I don’t know why, I just can’t :-\

And I kinda like it too. One thing you can improve upon is the choppiness of the elastic effect. Other than that… good job :slight_smile:

I agree. That isn’t constructive feedback and just plain mean.

As for the design - the problem here is that it’s too busy. You used too many different colors, they’re all bright and bold and thus all the elements of this piece are “fighting with eachother.” The result is an eyesore.

You may have a solid grasp on using photoshop’s tools, but I think you need to get a better idea of color/contrast and design concepts.

Oh, and don’t take gimmesomemore’s advice. Don’t give up.

Lost, thank you very much for that feedback. Man, It doesnt look choppy on my side…I will mess w/ it though.

RenGrl, thank you as well. I am color blind so most of the time I let my wife look first, and most of the time its “AHHHHHH THOSE AWFUL COLORS!!” lol, as you can tell I did’nt consult her this time:chinaman:

and…I wont give up. Im pretty sure he was kidding too:cowboy:

You know there’s some truth in kidding around. So even if he was kidding… he’s serious deep down. :stuck_out_tongue:
