Cute Idea author... one suggestion would be to put all the text in white and use BLACK STROKE 3 - 10 PXLs (see what effect it has on the drop shadow) the split color doesn't work on the 80 pound text) Also try to keep all the fonts at the same size... (Before and After should be the same size as the font on the right... (Unless you are offering information text boxes.. like in a newspaper.. then the font would have to be shrunk to look like newspaper text) ... also center the text on the bottle and sphereize it vertical so it wraps around the bottle (adding a nice label shape oval etc.. is always fun..

You have a great base and I'm sure more peeps will be along to help more, I'm just giving you some suggestions to start.. great IDEA!!! good luck

EDIT: MUCH IMPROVED.. can only get better!!!

Thanks Drivenslush.I think it looks better now.

Funny idea and nice fix. Good tips from Drivenslush. My only suggestion is to bring the label down just a little and it should curve a bit to match the bottle shape. Love the before image... looks like a horsapottomus!

The "testimonial" should not cover the body of the horse. You have a lot of "empty space" with the sky.

I lost 80 pounds, and I
................feel better than
....................ever
...................before!
(the dots are the horse outline)

would be a more "dynamic" text placement.

Also, the "Before" and "After" should be placed better on top of each image, not straddling them and the background

Thanks for the tips spaceranger and MossyB. I appreciate that you helped.
Oh and horsapottomus describes perfectly and funny the before image.

Nice refinements, looks really good!

Hello Marina08. Your art "Between Heaven and Hell" has been a constant companion as a screen saver on my iPad since my daughters tragic death in 2012. I finally found you, the talented artist! I would love to purchase a print. Please let me know if this is possible. It would mean so much. My email is kheustis2015@outlook.com.

Hi - at hi res you can see that there is still 1/background to be cut away between the rif=ders plat and her neck 2/ at the back of the sadle there is still background. 3/ There is too much blurring & softness around the figure. if you are using Photoshop you need to adjust the selection >MENU>Select>refine edges.
Good luck its a nice composition.

Hi Oriel - thanks for you comment - I made some changes, hope you like it this time

@ Ray, think you need to go look at the source image mate lol
