First ever attempt at this

<p>Just wanted to post this and get some feedback.  TBH, and it may be obvious, I've never had any artistic talent.  I just played around with things.  Please be honest, even brutally so.  You won't hurt my feelings. <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" />  Thanks! </p><p><img src="http://www.preyatic-intent.com/images/otherImages/Preya.png" width="500" height="150" /></p>

<p>Hey there!</p><p>Not bad for a very first attempt. You did quite well with the text and making that pop, I would however suggest that you maybe expand that border a little and/or make it thinner, it's very distracting. The background colors are a little weird, maybe play around with colors and hues, I would almost suggest to go with blue tones for the background, almost make it icey looking.I do like the motion of it, the text is also pretty well placed. Overall you did a pretty good job, just a couple of astetic things that could be fixed, but not bad <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /></p><p>Which program did you use for this?</p>

<p>Thanks for the feedback!  I actually used Photoshop for this.  My school has it installed on their machines, so thought I'd make use of it. <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" />  I thought about the blues for  the background, but thought I liked this one a bit better.  Although, I do think blue would make the toon pop a little more.</p>
