Gift image again

[TXchuck2u]

I created an image for a friend and his wife to give to them as a gift. I have received opinions such as 'looks too airbrushed' and 'the different fonts makes it look off balanced to me'. This was created in DRAW X5. Thanks for your input. chuckray

Not sure why someone would dislike it. Looks OK to me, "beauty is in the eye of the beholder".

After some consideration and input from others, here is the image that I settled on.

just seen the thread

the change to the text is much better

I'd be inclined to bow the heart out slightly so all the text is contained within it - I havn't tried it, but that's the way I would approach it naturally -
either that or tweak it so that the text is over the heart top as well as bottom - all a matter of balance

Given the brick wall setting, I would be inclined to go for a less structured font, a hand-drawn heart and some transparency to both so it looks scrawled on the wall. Just an idea.
Saludos,

I returned to the graphic one last time and applied suggestions from another site. I need to practice with a tablet more to get this type of effect down, especially sine I used to airbrush T-shirts. Adding transparenct to the text helped the outline color blend with the text color. Thanks ahead of time for any comments or suggestions. chuckray
