so what do i do? lol i am sorry i am new to this :P

i have notice tho u like to correct people are u like a manger or something?

Nope. Just helping out. What do you do? Read the section on how to find usable sources and go lookin' for 'em. There are lots out there...good luck!

so how do i take it down..i dont want to like get people or myself in any trouble lol and i am still in high school lol, just love photoshop.

haha thanks for the heads up tho....i refound all the pics off flickr....and i will redo the image in the right way!

Great! No need to take it down, just go to My stuff/My contest entries/Edit image. (Don't forget to save a high res image).

Edit this image by replacing it with your new and improved version. BTW I think the mutant giant blue peacock head and breast distract from/add unnecessary confusion to the peacock tree. A real-sized peacock in the foreground would be better IMO and would be a way to indicate the scale of the peacock tree while adding a greater feeling of depth to the image. Also, if the tree's beak sticks out from the tree, it would cast a shadow down onto the tree.

haha thanks guys lol i didnt even think of that lol

good luck

haha thanks!

nice ! g l

Thank you both!

Try a realistic background...this one is distracting. And thanks for removing the girl's hideous tattoo.

OH NO! The background took me AGES to do! Back to the drawing board then? Can't I just reduce the opacity a bit? (please)

No sooner the word, than the deed. Have reduced opacity of B/G. Actually CMYK46, I like this better myself - but more importantly - I hope you do too! As always - my aim is to please...

Beautiful...

The background is too noticeable and there's too much of it IMO. My suggestion: crop out the right third of the image, then drastically darken the background and add spooky moonlight lighting to the foreground elements.

nice work author...but with different background and some details as guys sad moonlight and etc u could transform this image from ordinary to extraordinary...best of luck

I bow to your superior knowledge, the deed is done and I thank you all very much!

yes.. i like the change.. the background giv more "mystery " same tone wi the woman

I love the mood and lighting. I wonder what she has in her hands????

beautiful ...........

very nice

artgirl1935 - she's wondering that too - doesn't bear thinking about....

The ancient protector of the trees! Nice blending.
