I made this LP/Wallpaper with a bit of a dilemma. I got two text styles that work, but both won't work. Here's both.

V1:

V2:

For Wallpapers, here's the higher res versions.
V1
V2

I think the second one would be better if the text had completely faded behind the trees...the low opacity just looks weird.

I'm changing it now. I originally added a lighter opacity to it so the eye can still trace out the name through the trees without there being any confusion what it says, but looking at it even in the lower res would look better with it completely behind the trees.

CUDA!!!!

both look really good

IMO v1 has a better balance to it, the text in v2 looks great but i think it creates too much negative space on the bottom of the image.

overall good looking stuffs

Can't say. To tell ya the truth... It think that color scheme is over used at times.

I would say that the colors look awesome and its a great effect.....

but!

i have seen you use this style for a long time and i think you have mastered it. As a designer with your talent you should be pushing yourself by trying to create new things and styles.

CHALLENGE: for your next piece try something completly different and i think you will be surprosed
