a mere 0.3% to third place. Anyways, you already got a Number 1 spot

game on! congrats!

congrats! cool imagination

Believable... but where's the train? I want to try this ride

looks very much like from a "Science" book, under the microscope type of picture

1) select the green body using "magic wand"
2) use "dodge" for highlights (lighter part of the body towards the light source)
3) use "burn" for shadows (darker part of the body)

add simple bumpy texture to body:
1) add "noise" (not too much, need to experiment)
2) add "blur", "gaussian blur"

add depth for water background:
1) select the water area
2) choose a darker blue, use "paintbrush" paint at the bottom portion of the image
3) add alittle "noise" , then a little "motion blur", then add "ripple" or "wave" (under "distort" to taste

Hope this helps, of course there are more methods that can be used... do some exploring online photoshop tutorials

congrats!

congrats!

lovingly good....

I love it! great job!

nice composition... only felt that the balloons... change the 'stick' to string instead (less stiff looking)

I love lolly-pops...sweeeeet....entry!

suggest, touch up the stalk on the apple to same style as apple-body

reminds me of a game..where the same color blobs clear when join together..much like tetris

pretty-graphic!... the couple not very visible on white background.

suggest take out the two white eclipses at the foreground

should use filter "plastic"... using blur at the edges make it look 'un-solid'

colors! wow...

artistic... fullstop

wow! full-stop

ah... a half told story... the hot-air balloon looks outa place.. suggest replace with a lady mannequin facing the guy or walking away (rejecting his love)

a moving story.... sob....

wow! crayon torpedoes! that will show them some colors! great imagination

improve the butterfly body to make more 3-D with shadings/highlights

promising.. but the crayon sorta spoils it

more saturation... darken the whole image alittle.. to create mood

complex looking

cool idea, have to improve the flames (can observe from real image of flames)

change background to a war scene maybe better?

just like it... the colors.. the robot...

please improve the shadows of the flower over the feet... it's almost perfect

easily a fiction-book cover

wow... giant leg...

but nice feel/mood.... tranquil...zz..zz...................

haha......

but seriously... haha... the blood should be more 'solid'... now is like a glow effect

think no one can beat you at imagination..

nice attempt..if the background can change to a more suitable one, such as a village or something

see if you can blend the wings' color (more golden) to that of the whale's...

small suggestion to consider, let the wing sweep the surface of the water, add water splash, water droplets...

cool... not sure if the hot-air balloons are necessary though.

simply nice............ meow!

stroller with 'horse power'? nice

CUTEY! but if you can 'slim-down' the squirrel's body will be better

i see a CLEAR WINNER here... no further comments

hmm.. why is the scenery image added with effect? not matching to the lion n stroller-dog.
leg of the lion to adjust (look stiff n straight)

nice blend with the clothes n all

add alittle motion-blur ... the 'baby' will enjoy it more

haha...should make the bottom part of the duck more 'bloated'... haha....

improve the sand-dune (add texture then gaussian blur) so that it will look "bumpy"... now a little flat

WHAT A CUTEY!!!

overall, add a texturised filter on the cap maybe better (if prefer)

cool!

same author as "Alone"?

do a high-contrast image maybe better.
add glows for the flowers, as if magical (if you prefer)

the ducky do not seem to be afraid...

cool.. should add "soldiers" climbing out of the ducky or a door

blur the edge of the moon (too sharp now)

trees looked embossed... style alittle different from the rest of the image

clean look..

add a little water droplets (if you prefer) to the ducks

scary! they were best of friends, now fight over a ducky? poor Ernie...

suggestions:
1) for more 3d, add bright n dark tones to Bert n arm with ducky.
2) add white shine on the edge of the axe, perhaps a starburst to suggest sharpness of axe
3) fade the top part of the shadows on the table (Ernie's arm n ducky)
4) side-thought, you can very well add a "spot light" to just lit the face, axe and arm for a more sinister feel

cool chop

the ducky looks flat, add alittle white (or near white-yellow) shine at the curved portion (example, the head area) and part of the beak..

the baby don't seem to be interested in the ducky, should find one that looks at the ducky

eyes of the cat look weird..
intensify the shadow area of the maze

nice idea

suggest:
1) smaller head
2) the shadow part of the dress should be darker (not light brown) -- dark brown-black
3) shade more of the body (3D look)
4) drop shadow should be long (light source from top right), shadow to fall right to left direction
5) saturate the sea alittle

great imagination
