Seth Rollins Graphic

I'm actually not a fan of the text, tbh it kind of reminds me of Microsoft word art. I'd also reduce the glow around Rollins just a bit. Its fine on the left side but on the right side there's a bit of an empty patch near his shoulder that looks like it is being highlighted for no reason. The blending is good and consistent but it almost looks like the background photos are too sharpened in comparison to the main picture.

It's not bad but I'd beat it up a little more. I do like the choices of pics because they don't look randomly selected and actually tie back to the "The Man" tagline.

You can't expect everybody to automatically give 10/10s when you share your art. If you can't be open to constructive criticism then you'll never improve

Well my first major in college was website design and I'm currently pursuing a degree in commercial arts and I've been freelancing on and off since I was 15 so I'd say I have some knowledge in aspects of design. I don't really think the microsoft word comment was that harsh, I didn't say it with intended malice. It was just a reference to the angle as well as the 3D effect. But in terms of not offering criticism on how to improve upon the text? You're right, I didn't include any. All I said was it looked like microsoft word art. If that's what you felt was negative/off putting about my reply than I apologize. To add onto what I originally said I wouldn't have gone the 3D route with the text. Text is actually the biggest thing I struggle with in terms of design, especially when it comes to graphics of this nature that are splashes or forum signatures, so I understand the need to try and make it pop/look appealing but I don't think you needed to go this route. I would of just stuck to using a flat design. But maybe that's subjective in this case since the overall graphic isn't heavily relying on the design of the text. Your undertaker graphic was a better example of a design that was reliant on the text because the 25 year thing was the whole reason for making the graphic if I'm not mistaken.

Other than the text, I don't think I drew much negativity to the piece. It's not my favorite piece of yours sure but I don't think its bad. Like I mentioned in my first reply, I did say I liked your choice of pictures and how they tied together with the subtext. I felt my other comments were pretty minor like the glow and sharpening, those are minor things that can be altered. It's not like I just flat out said it was garbage.

But yeah, I don't wake up in the morning and think "whose art can I come on here and crap on?" I just like to do my best to hit every bullet point in giving feedback. I feel like I do understand the other side of it pretty well because I've had designs for school that I spent over 20 hours in total on only for a professor to comment the text spacing was poor or it was a bad color choice or some other minor thing that I didn't feel deserved to be highlighted in the grand scheme of how much work I put into it. But even when I'm on the receiving end of tiny little annoying comments like that I still like to acknowledge them and appreciate them for what they are worth because in the end they are only going to help further fine tune my designs. But anyway thats just my insight on it, you don't have to share the same beliefs as me but you do have to know my intentions aren't to draw negativity just for the sake of drawing negativity, I do it because I feel it's the best way to give feedback that can help people improve.
