xYunaxFantasiesx GMV.

Yuna--
Transparency is always a plus.
I love the whole Britney Spears vs. The Asian Girl (is it Hyori?) thing.
The blend looks so real.
However, if you had no idea who the hell Britney Spears was, you wouldn't get the idea of her being "hot&dirty."
Also, who says Asian Girl (Hyori?) isn't hot?
Great job.

Pamela--
Love the paper thingie.
Love the magnet.
Basically, I love the whole theme.
Nice textures and stuff like that.
Nice job.

Yuna:
I love the theme ! The effects are really awesome. Good chose of pictures. I like how you blended Britney and BoA in the middle. The background looks really nice too. I love the text.

Pamela:
The theme is really great too. I like the idea of all your pictures. Textures are awesome. Text is good.

I think it's Boa, Joanna, not Hyori.
Iunno. o__o I can't tell. x_x

This is goodbye.
Who knows when I'm coming back.

Gahh...this is hard. :[
But xYunaxFantasiesx GMV.
- Looks awesome!
- Pictures are blended in very nicely
- The background in the middle is so pretty o_o
- Very creative

deadgiveaway
- I like the girl & boy figures in the middle
- Cute theme
- Pretty pictures
- Nice texture

I voted for xYunaxFantasiesx's entry because it just showed a bit more effort. Pamela did a great job though, especially since she didn't have as much time.

xYunaxFantasiesx:
(should put your note here, not in the site, I don't think people are reading it. Heh)
The design, layout and feeling the graphic gives off is great.
I'm a symmetrical kind of person, the texts at the bottom isn't obvious, maybe put a border around them or something. I'd prefer it if "hot and dirty" were more on the left.
Maybe you could've used different colours to show "hot and dirty" & "cute and fresh" because the pictures of Boa and Britney are both white. White symbolizes purity and innocense. It goes with Boa but not Britney. Maybe a picture of her with more skin revealing or black clothes?

deadgiveaway
I like the whole idea that opposites attract, girl/boy thing. It's cute. The picture you used in the middle is cute and nice. Haha
I can understand the magnet but not really the light bulbs. They don't seem to relate in an "opposite" way either. =\
The lighting and texture looks nice.
Blending isn't bad at all!
The picture in the middle catches my attention and it depicts the theme greatly with the text.

Yuna:
+I like the colors.
+The pop-out transparency thing is fun.
+Pretty green background! Very pretty!
+Good quality pictures.
- I HATE your theme, sorry. I just have a pet peeve for celebrity graphics, especially since it was easier to do something beyond celebrities with a theme like this.
-Your choice of text... isn't the best. Hot and dirty? Plus, the text at the bottom is placed weird. You probably could have done with out it.
-The main text.... does that say "Too"? I'm thinking it should be "Two", right?
-The text in the top corners-- I can't even read Britney's, and the other girl's text is black, so the black pops out while the while is barely there. It not only isn't symmetrical, but it doesn't convery the message very well.

Pamela:
+Wow! What an improvement! Either that, or I've never seen you do a graphic like this.
+I love your theme. Very cute.
+I love the magnets. It helps with the message.
+The text is pretty.
+I love the textures and perhaps brushes used for your background. Your background is very nice.
-Ehhh, the little people are cute, but I think you probably could have pulled off two real people, and it would have been better-looking.
-Light bulbs...? Um.


Pamela GMV.
Pamela's is simplier than Yuna's, but it appeals to me more because of the theme and it's easy to see, while Yuna's text just bothers me. It was a really hard decision, because I'm usually drawn to Yuna's graphics over most other people. Good job to the both of you! :]

I'm bad at math for two reasons: I'm not good with numbers.

I must say this is a very very hard decision.

Yuna:
It's wonderful, seriously. The transparency, great job on that. Awesome colours, a very fresh look. The text is hard to read. I spent quite some time reading it. O_O

Pamela:
I like the colours very much. The pictures are really nice too. I like the effects, brushes and textures. Awesome background. The only thing is that I don't know why there're lightbulbs, heh.

It's an extrememly hard decision, really. But I must say that when I viewed this topic, my eyes quickly fall onto Pamela's banner. It completely catches my eyes and I adore it. Yuna's graphic are always wonderful. Both did a great job.

Pamela GMV.

How could you describe the colour blue to someone who is blind?

Very hard decision...

Yuna--

I love the transparency. Good use of colors, brushes, effects, pictures, text, almost everything is perfect. Even though this theme is a bit unappealing, you made up for it with your good skills. I'd have to say though... your theme has been your only problem and I'm sure you could win this competition if you picked a better one in the next round.

Pamela--

Great job on filling in! I like the graphic and the theme was okay, but Yuna's had more oomph to it. I agree though, it is hard to cover for someone and make a good graphic. The background looks a bit empty in spots... maybe more pictures to fill it up next time? Awesome Job.

Yuna GMV.

And so, as kinsmen met a night,
We talked between the rooms,
Until the moss had reached our lips,
And covered up our names.

This is very, very, very hard.

Yuna:
I love the theme: very different pop princesses in their own little worlds. The fonts are lovely and the colours go well with each other. I love the transparency and it's really unique. Lovely.

Pamela:
Yours is just so... you. So cuuute! *pinches Pamela's cheeks* Ahem. Anyway, The theme is really cute, and I like how it was "opposites attract" - however, I just didn't get how the lightbulbs attracted. Great use of colour, fantastic idea. =]

It was really, really, really hard but Pamela Gets My Vote because of her theme (mainly)
