Hi Amanda ... Welcome to TalkGraphics.

Overall, I like what you have done, although I'm not crazy about the subject matter. "Dreamer" could be more "dreamy" if the contrasting black areas were turned down a bit. "Broken" has a distinct "Jack the Ripper" feel ... I'm guessing that is what you were after. "Emotionless" deftly conveys the "Now I lay me down to overdose" message well ... possibly the best of the bunch. "Marilyn" is the type of poster I quickly pass over at Spencer's Gifts. The composition looks good but the image of "Manson" doesn't work well for me ... perhaps it needs to blend in a bit better. Like I said, I like your style and can appreciate the work you have put into each piece ... just not my "cup of tea".

What John said. Good stuff, dark, moody but I think/know you can do better. Reach deep down and try to convey what's going on in there. If your going to do stuff from your dark side and your light side then try to use images that are more abstract. Using Marilyn Manson's image blatently like that is not a big turn on. He's a has been and I was never turned on by his message. I would rather look at the grotesque imagery of Nine Inch Nails! http://www.talkgraphics.com/images/smilies/biggrin.gif

Keep on keepin' on!!

I Like em all.http://www.talkgraphics.com/images/smilies/smile.gif Marilyn? I believe he is a misguided Lad with a possible sexual identity crisis. http://www.talkgraphics.com/images/smilies/wink.gif

"you only grow better by mistakes"

I didn't see any mistakes.

Suggestion, It took a long time to open each image, consider compressing your files some more, 800 thru 600 pix width around a 100kb or less still look good and load fast.

Welcome aboard Amanda.

Oh, I almost forgot the last picture, it looks kinda like a young lady chewing on a piece of beef jerky in the rain. Is that you?
