It's too bad it expired on you. That rips that it would cut you off in the middle of a session. As for crit, it would be more effective if you could give more sence of light into it- maybe some oranges and yellows. It's very hard to see anything in this.

For example http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/5410362/ This has a dark blue background, but there is a clear sorce of light, even though alot of it is shadowed out. A little light in the background helps to push an image forward in this case opposed to other cases where it pulls it back Smile

    It's not supposed to be very clear. THink of... hm... impressionalist painting. It's not clear, it just gives you the general idea. =3

      Hmmmm- it still should be clear as in you can see it. Red is the darkest hue- photocopiers when printing red blue and green of the same brightness level prints out red the darkest, which is why people that don't want you photcopying information put a red background on stuff. It's got the shortest wavelength- close to black, with no wavelength. Maybe you need more red in the picture so that you can see that something is there is closer to my point. I had to concentrate to see what the picture was, and if the veiwer needs to do that, then it's broken the illusion or messege or what ever you're trying to convey to the person.

        I see... I'll probably do something about that when I get another art program. I see colors weird. In one eye everything is tinted green and in the other everything is tinted red, though I don't know if that means I see this differently. I can see red against black better than I can blue, though. I always thought blue was the darkest...

          Blue is a cooler colour, but I think you'll find this to be true if you compared pure colours- we have mostly blue respeptors in our eyes. If an Earthling was to go to my world- Phauroraland, it would take them a month to get into a sleeping routine due to the sky permanently being red. It's an unusual colour to look at. Blue and green are the easiest to compare against. It's also why jpg images blur the heck out of red- cause it can be sacrificed for size :nods:

              Sorry- stuff I've picked up. Basically, it's easier for our eyes to see the colour blue than red Smile

                O.o It's always harder for me to see blue... red just stand out more to me, but I'll keep that in mind. Or try to...if my memory will let me. ^^,
