Default Futurama Wallpaper

Fan of Futurama?

Check out this wallpaper I made:

I'd like some advice on the vectoring. Does it look good? Does it look ok? Bad?

Enjoy.

Looks nice. I love Nibbler, poor guy can't get anybody to take him seriously on account of him being so cute.

The vectoring is well done. But since you asked critics specifically for it, there are two tiny parts that could be improved. The corners of the boxes, left side on the picture, they don't flow that well together with the straight(horizontal) lines. The right side of the box is perfect, very nice and smooth, so make the same for the left side too. Otherwise the guy looks alright, I can't spot any rough edges or so, good job!

On another note, I think you should pull the guy + box more to the inside of the picture. Firstly because it will be used as a wallpaper, so the taskbar will cover a signficant part. And second, imo in this case you should put your main subject according to the basic rule of thirds, will be more appealing. Very tightly cropped now, no space at all on the side and very close to the bottom.

Hope that's that constructive criticism you were looking for. images/smilies/smile.gif

That's the great thing about vectoring. I can increase it to whatever size you want images/smilies/biggrin.gif.

So yeah... what size would you like images/smilies/tongue.gif
