About HONEST CRITIQUES ONLY PLEASE! Give me something I can use... please...

This image makes me think of Andy Warhol. The collage is well constructed. That is a beautiful child. The center pics are very dark, what was the purpose of that? Inquiring minds wanna know! lol

Basically to show all sides of her personality is the reason for it. She is very intelligent and bright, but has a dark almost violent side at times, she can be a perfectionist which also sends her into rages of anger, she can be helpful and loving but also emotionless. She is also a YOUNG MARINE. Thats my reasoning for everything I see in this pic.

This looks pretty ok Mandy . . .
Were it me (and this is my personal opinion so there is no right or wrong) . . . I would opt for a dark border. I would use it both vertically AND horizontally-while keeping it thin, not just the horizontal as you have done here. The entire outside border can be a bit thicker. I like columns 1, 2, 3 and 6 a lot. I would replace 4 and 5 with other color filters . . . perhaps red (which could reflect the anger without being dark)and yellow. I would then change the letter colors to reflect the column filter colors and jumble it so that a yellow letter was not in a yellow column and a B&W or Sepia divided the three colors. Leave column 1 as is:
Original-Red-B&W-Yellow-Sepia-Blue
Colors interchanged as appropriate to the eye for columns 2, 4 or 6.
You are being very creative and (as Laura mentioned, Warhol-ish). I like this idea very much and see great potential in it.

Regards,
Doyle I <~~~~~

Thank you for such intense criticalness... (laughing at self at loss of articulate wording) I will play with it some more, saved it as a project to do just that. The reason for the red, white and blue was she is a young marine and her bday party is this weekend and we were hoping to post it there. I will use your ideas. ALso,,,, warhol.. wasnt sure if that was a compliment or not. AMnesia is hitting me full force in that area.. is that a good thing to be like him???
Thanks!

Thank you for that explanation. My Son is a Marine (retired), your description could fit him also! lol

You at least need something between the letters and the photos to help the letters stand apart. Either an edge to the letters, or put them on a separate layer and give them a slight drop shadow. The blue letters are the hardest to read.
