Theme: Anime made in 2006.

EDIT: fixed the text, I'll never understand why I used gray on the original...

firedogx10 - no complaints

poetictagedy - no complaints

playlamegetfame - a bit too busy but still nice nonetheless.

I'd also like to note; Nagisa you're signature looked nice but it suffers from the same problem as last weeks entry. The flow of lighting. The stock image seems to be getting light from the right side of the image, but your background is darkest there... so where is the shading/lighting coming from? You've got to remember to match the flow of the lighting of the stock image with the flow of the lighting of the background. Otherwise you may as well just be slapping randomness on top of a background and calling it graphic work.

Tsukumo Yuma - You need to work on your text. It's literally the same thing every week and it never flows with the work. I also wasn't a fan of the sudden crop of the background. If it was like that with the stock or w/e... I think a fade out would have been a better alternative.

It was tough deciding between poe and firedogs entry this week.
