Yeah, so I need people to tell me what's wrong with my current project.

Version that I dislike:

Version that I can tolerate:

Any suggestions or comments at all? It seems not-quite-right to me. I'm not sure if the polyhedron I added fixed it or not.

version 2 has decent composition, but you could improve on it by burning down the corners a bit so your eyes don't wander away from the picture. Very surreal, I like it.

I wonder where the topic came from...

Specific questions:
  1. Blue glow: dropped, changed, or left alone?
  2. Polyhedron: Dropped, changed or left alone?
  3. Does anyone know of a better way tomove the focus off to the corner than fumbling around with liquify?
  4. Image focus: good?
  5. Should I darken the image corners as Hoard suggested?[/list=a]Thanks for any and all help.

Ooooo can you make a 1280x1024 version of the first one?

I suggest getting rid of the star-type thingy in the second one. It just doesn't fit in. Maybe making it a bit less cartoonish..?

yeah, definitely prefer the first, though the dark blue in the second is pretty nice. but the polyhedron looks completely out of place to me.

I actually like the first one. The second one isn't too shabby, just....eh....something you'd see hanging on a poster hanging in a high school classroom.

(Dope Nose, eh? Looks like somebody was playing their Maladroit album.)
