The Last of the Elemental Eyes series, for now at least. I dont' have photoshop anymore, so I won't be posting much for a while, not until mid-to-late fall at least, but any and all comments, as usual, are much appreciated.

You can tell there is no PS as the lines are not curved and smoothed out. It is very creative and little more work when you have PS will make it much better. For me, the colors are too bright for my early morning viewing. Keep trying, it would be good to see a new version. Ted

As I'm not an artsy type myself it's hard for me to say anything constructive about this image, but I thought ted3020 summed it up pretty well. The colours in the background are too bright and saturated and the radial gradient just doesn't work. The element symbols are good and carry their meaning well, but the "eyes" have obviously been pixeled at a lower resolution and then upscaled, which produced unwanted artefacts. Also the composition with the central position of the radial gradient and the placement and orientation of the symbols around it, is not a strong point of this piece.

As I understand caedes.net is all about high quality desktop wallpapers, but this image here is neither high quality, nor suitable for a desktop wallpaper. It has potential, but requires a bit more work.

Wow, thanks for the comments, I'll have to re-do this, but I have to say somethign first. Oh, and please pardon the list style, I like listing, it's easier for me. 1) This was done in photoshop, I just took my time in posting it. and 2) actually, the eyes, at least the part that's the same for each, were made in the same resolution, but then compied, pasted, and shrunk. I thought it fairly interesting that you assumed the opposites.
