Scan-lines = BAD Composition is pretty good. Colours are okay. Mainly work on your text and render blending. Also, learning to make better backgrounds will be a must. I'd recommend going to the tutorials section on this site. You'll learn a lot. Not bad for a first. Pretty good actually.
Yep, Excellent for a first. ^_^ Scanlines can take an excellent tag and destroy it in less than 0.000002 seconds. :lol: If used right, however, they can compliment a tag incredibly. Mainly by not being applied to the entire image. Check out the tutorial section, like Inverse said, it helps a lot. ^_^
