i just got photoshop a few hours ago, and it's just the trial version :p
i played around a bit with it and my new avatar was born :p
(it's dark, and was done in a few minutes, didn't even plan on it turning that way, or be so small for that matter)
anyway, what u think?

dont get mad cuz im gonna do a hard rate on it. most ppl know when it comes to GFX, noob or not, ill rate u like the pros.

- too plain, but the theme fits it
- the teeth look as if it was sharpened, next time dont sharpen it TOO much, but just enough that it will give off the same effect. the wat you did it, it became all rainbowish and just ruined the avatar.
- eyes are weird, try making em a bit more realistic next time. like giving them a more realistic shape than just a circle.
- darken the colour of the lips, it sorta ruins the overall effect, cuz its too bright, but the theme is dark/shadows.

Final Score: 6.8/10

its pretty good, but not great. keep on working with Photoshop and ull get better. also, try looking around for the serial number, or a crack for the PS version you have. but keep in mind, more than 75% of the "serials" are virus infected. if u ARE going to look, make sure u have a REALLY good anti-virus program.

My first impression of it was a fish with hair in the dark.
Nice.

Actually, I wouldn't recommend you do this. Most crack are virus ridden, and anti-virus software can't do much to stop it once you've invited it in. Plus, there's the legal issue. Not a bright idea if you ask me, even if you don't get caught.

I am teh illegal downloader/pirate. What an evil person I am. Though I havn't had too much trouble with viruses, you just need good protection. (Like ZoneAlarm, Spybot, Adaware ect). I don't ever trust craks though, almost always viruses. Look for the serials instead.

to be honest, i got a lot better feedback then i expected, considering how "much" time was spendt into it. i really can't draw, but i got lucky just playing around with tools, the fish actually started as a bright red line :)
(yeh, it's too sharp, but the colors had the side-effect of creating the teeth in the first place, no shapening would make it teethless :P)

Try not to blur to much, it really tends to ruin the picture. Since your playing around with photoshop, try to blend colours using the airbrush tool, and changing the opacity of the brush. Another suggestion why not read up on some of those tuts on photoshop.

*shivers* your icon does do a good job of being creapy tho
