Thanks for the image of leaf and hand by minglespy. (5 years and 3361 days ago)

Very CBR.

author says:

Oh dear, sorry you think that Lamantine, quite a bit of work went into it, and I've seen a LOT worse! (See SBS)

avatar PhotoRepair

I have to agree with Lamantine!

You only used the source in the text?

...and a 9 step sbs to show it.
i think you could have made the source more relevant to the piece. such as making a background for the hand to be over instead of the original sources background. would have brought more attention to the source image of the contest.

author says:

No CMYK46, I also used it for the leaf in the persons hand and used overlay and a few other things - it's all in the sbs. I think jadedink has viewed them, if so - thanks!

author says:

Ah jadedink, I used the whole of the background image because it was a tea plantation and that was the whole point of my pic - making the single leaf into a tea leaf. I really don't want to say this: but tea comes from leaves...... THAT'S the point I was making.

jadedink says:

my point still is, you can't really SEE the source being used. i mean, i HAD to look at the 9 step sbs just to see if you'd tried to use the source in any other way.

Don't take all of this the wrong way, its just, there are SOOOO many entries in different contests in which the source is minimal, or...barely seen at all. I was just trying to be helpful in suggesting using it in a way which people could see without having to look through 9 steps on how to make a leafy text.

CMYK46 says:

I don't get it...except for being lighter, the leaf is the same as in the source pic.

author says:

CKYM46, that's a compliment really although I appreciate that you didn' mean it to be. Well - the leaf is taken from the source image as shown in step 6 of sbs and then I used overlay. So in all the source image is used roughtly nine times in all to create this picture. That's 8 times to make the text and once for the leaf. Now I'm leaving the building!

like the font. good luck Author

It's hard to deny the author's observation that "I've seen a LOT worse!" Nevertheless, this still seems rather slight. Making the text a lot more prominent, and perhaps more of an advertising message instead of just a label, might help.

Seriously, not much use of the source here. I don't need to go to your SBS to see where you used it.

This isn't CBR'd. It's minimal use and you COULD have used more of the source.

author says:

Yes, seriously jawshoewhah, you're right!

Howdie stranger!
