Just a little something I made tonight. Got back from a show at Chain Reaction in Anaheim and I took some pics with some small canon. The pics aren't as high of quality as i would've liked, but with a little bit of Shop on request, I made this.

Very good! I really don't have any pointers, except that high quality would've have been nice.

Like it, but I don't like the "I" in the word TIME. Needs to look like.. Well "I" not "l"

Wow, words can't express how much improvement I have seen overall on this site when it comes to graphics! It's phenomenal.

On other hands, it's also phenomenal you still suck at it.. :p

Nah, you know(I hope) I'm just kidding, it's real cool. Only thing I can't stand(and that's just a personal thing) is the spacing of the letters. Too damn close.. arghhh!

With the text, Avant Garde looks very good overlapped, but with the text specified, it was impossible to make the text faux bolded and overlapped and still achieve the letters definition. the "I" in "Time" when condensed too much without the slight spacing would throw off the word, and their band isn't "Project Tme Lapse."

Great, but needs a little more contrast, in my opinion.

The photograph was already highly colored and contrasted due to the stage lighting, and the ambient fog machine they had in the rafters to get a beam effect from the lights. They liked it colored, so I stuck to it.

Meh. It just seems really light to me.

I upped' the contrast in GIMP and I felt it looked better. But that's just me.

I really like the microphone stand fro some reason. It stands in contrast to the rest of the image really well.

I like the original. Nice colors, very "New Age" rock looking.

This is BEGGING to be made old skool! Its so obvious!

Its too "Clean". I'm curious to see what it would look like it you up-ed the contrast, Lowered the saturation a-bit...maybe Halftone, and went to Image > Mode > Bitmap.
Play with it... it has potential to be really good (Sell-ably good if you get it just right I think.) I don't know... It needs something.
