re: Oni [Elfen Lied Banner]

They are both good, but...It looks as though they both have a point where one image stops and another starts. On the first, It's on the left. On the second, it's on the right.

Edit: Whoops, reverse that. First, right. Second, left.

re: Oni [Elfen Lied Banner]


This is my first offical work. Sure, I overused the cheap Supernova effect but I think it looks ok for a first attempt. Basically I slightly changed the BG render I used, inserted the pic I chose and added a couple supernova's.


I finally learned how to use the transparency tool in this Hellsing banner. The dark render I used in back of this is nearly non-existant because of all of the images involved. I'm glad I learned another feature, though.

EDIT: Oh thanks everyone for your comments.

That one is Hellsing themed and since that concerns vampires and such, it probably is.

re: Oni [Elfen Lied Banner]

For the first one, why is there so much white over to the right? The BG looks incomplete. Also, those supernovas aren't good. They're distracting. If you must use them, lower the brightness.

Second piece, I don't like it. There doesn't appear to be a focal point, and it just looks like you slapped several pictures together and played with opacity settings.

Finally, add borders to all your works. A 1 pixel black border works well.

I suggest checking out some tutorials for GIMP to learn some tricks. From there you can go onto experimenting and thus develop some great works.

re: Oni [Elfen Lied Banner]



Thanks IP, this time around I used a tutorial to create this piece of work. 1 GIMP crash () and a couple hours later... voila! Hope everyone likes it better than my last two works.(I know... the cut on Kenshin's hair was a bit sloppy... )

This one is better, but the cutting needs work. I can still see white around the render.

Hmm... You need to practice the cutting indeed. Nothing more to report though, I think it's not very bad.

re: Oni [Elfen Lied Banner]

Yes you do need to practice cutting and maybe alitle more with brushes so the background is more exiting also you dont have to but its alws good to write something on it.

My latest work. It's Noir themed and I took my time with this one and experimented with a lot of different brushes. I'm just glad someone on photobucket had a beautiful image that already had a transparent BG, saving me time and sanity.

Thanks for commenting everyone, please continue!

re: Oni [Elfen Lied Banner]

Very nice background but the colour scheme doesn't really seem to match up with the stock image. I'd probably go with a colour closer to yellow or orange.

re: Oni [Elfen Lied Banner]



I don't really like this one as much as any of my other works. I made this because I was bored and wanted to do something. Since there was a bit of text on the border of this pic, I had to position this in a wierd way, but I do like the color scheme I came up with.It's D.N. Angel themed if anyone's wondering.

IP: Yeah... I thought about that... Kirika (the character's partner) was supposed to be the focus of this one, but I couldn't find any good pics of her, so I ended up using Mireille, and never changed the BG.

You're... kidding, right? Because I find this to be the best one so far. Too much white over on the left, so I'd suggest shortening the width to get rid of it.

Maybe also lower the brightness slightly on the stock to see if that would make the stock better defined.

However, the BG has a great design and suits the stock image.

re: Oni [Elfen Lied Banner]

Really? Thanks!

I knew the color scheme, if anything, would be better but I didn't see much else in this, but I guess it's better than I thought.

Finished the Digi-port header!

Is it just me or does this one seem a bit... crowded...? Also this was my first time taking a shot at trying to add text, so I know it's not perfect.
