Nice image! The sculpture is really interesting, and fits perfectly in this work. Great colors, too. GL!...

cool!

fine work

very cool work author...well done

nice work ..........

Best of luck!

i like the idea! but its a little busy

I agree with Tucker; idea is good, but it's kinda confusing...

confused about what

besides what is a little busy

I think your on as far as the idea goes but technically there are place for improvement. First off, all of your source images are way too small. You must not of clicked on the sources picture to get the full resolution. I think the resolution is what really hurt the clarity on this. Second some of the masking needs a bit of work. I wish you luck and make sure you get the full resolution sources next time.

Have to agree about the sources. They are blurry and hard to make out. I wouldn't have known it was a turtle if not told it was there... no offence author.

I like the idea of the image, however is there anyway you could go back and redo it with high res images? it would be a waste to lose votes on this image cause its simply blurry

will hold vote

thanks but can someone show me how to get higher res ? cuz i dk how to do it
thanks alot

Hi. For sxc.hu, you'd have to click the download button to give you the hi-res which is what you save, not the preview image. And I noticed you need to credit and notify the photographers for some of your sources so you'll have to get their permission first. Hope this helps.

well i clicked on the download button, of course, but the problem happened when i create t he entry. I divived the progress into another small steps that i used in poor resolution(500x500) now i dont know how to get better quality for the entry

for credit yah
i alway give credit to the photographers if i saw his/her name near the download button. In another way, i cant remember all

nice attempt

You won't be able to get a better resolution for this entry unless you redo the whole thing. My comment was in regards to any other entries you hear on out. When I download the source picture I first click on the image and then you should have different size option. Always choose the highest image size even if it's not required in your entry. Good luck!

do i still have a chance?
cuz today is 4th
not sure if i redo it my work will be paid off

Excellent idea!!!!!

Would look better with either diagonal or horizontal blend. Like both moon and sun on the same sky mixing the landscape of night and day. Or A night sky blending horizontally to a daytime landscape etc.. pretty good idea thou.

very cool

Author, Hi welcome to the site if you are new here you should take a few minutes to read the rules. Your image is a good one but there are some technical issues with your source link.

I have read the rules, and I'm very sorry that there is an issue! What can I do to resolve it?

author go up to the top of page and find "MY STUFF" menu drop it down too find "MY CONTEST" there you will have the option to edit your image. Put the link for any sources there you will see the places. Good luck.

i have found the original image on flikr, but i saw it through images. thank you for helping me fix my mistake. I will be sure never to do it again!

Nice image, author, but it's copyrighted. We can't use those on this site. At flickr, go to the bottom of the page, click on Creative Commons, then at the top, click on See More across from Attribution. If it says 'some rights reserved' (down the page to the right), click on those words and if it says you can 'remix' then you are able to use that image here. Good luck and welcome to the site!

im sorry. im very new to here and to everyone who's been helping me with the copyright rules, thank you. im now very aware of the rules & guidelines and now i know to search within photos that are not copyrighted. Thank you for all the help! i hope i dont get disqualified for this contest =[

I like the colors...
But you have to change the copyrighted image you used, by not running the risk of being disqualified or having the entry removed.

the picture is not copyrighted

yes, it is. on the authors comments, where she lists her name, there is a copyright sign right next to her name. its not even available for download.

i changed the background image to one that is not copyrighted.

Looks cool to me! Your source is fine. GL!

Awesome work, I love the fish in the background, it makes the depth of field terrific

very well done

Great job! Goes to my favs!

Inspired by Terry Pratchett by any chance. Nice work!
