I decided to get off my arse and start work on making myself my own page instead of keep using my bros one. Started working on it, was thinking of using this as the main logo page, was wondering how it looks, cause its really fkkin dark so it may be totally screwed on other ppls monitors. Maybe I overdid it with the high contrast. Please let me know how it looks or if anyone has any ideas of stuff I can do to it. Cheers! =)

Looks pretty cool ya fakkin tosser! Only prob is the colours between the text and the background don't really gel right, at least in my opinion (and we all know, that its a very important one...) The reds are the main problem. The background has a pinkish tinge to it, and has everybody knows (heh...right?) u don't wear reds pants with a pink shirt. Or maybe thats just me...(although sometimes if i'm feeling really bad, I'll wear pink trousers, and red underpants.)
eh, you understand right?

Really cool image, Cos! Imagine if someone accidentally was linked to your site while looking for information on how to groom their poodles effectively and saw that monstrous creation.
Anyway, yeah, I agree with immi, there is an overall value of a pinkish-brown throughout your image, yet the text is really explosive. Sorta clashes, me thinks. (Although, I'm just odd.)
Some suggestions: maybe incorporate the text into the design; have the vines actually make up the words. Also, if you're too lazy to do all that work ( ) then you may want to take the explosive fire from the "Reality" and replace that with the pinkish clouds from the left of your image.
Cool stuff, mr. man.  |

Looks good, cant really see the D in beyond though.
And as immi said the pink bits (scuse the pun) actually make me wanna stair at them(as pink bits should *lol*) and take my eyes off the title of the page. which would be a bad thing wouldn't it? as far as i know a splash page is so ppl know the title of your page and maybe get a small teaser of your skills.
ah well im just babbling.

Cool man!
I think it would fit even better if you would texure the "Reality" Text like the nice fella in the background, but keep the explosion around the letters.
Looks way cool like it is now anyway

Hey, maybe Cos isnt' into the hardcore stuff at all...maybe this is only a portion of the picture, and the guy's actually wearing fluffy polka-dotted pants.
See, that's not scary is it? Or would that make him even scarier?

Thanks for the feedback ppl! The more I look at it the more I'm not sure about it, I think the pink (fkkin pink cos??) smoke isn't workin either, I'll try change that to fit and bring the head out out some more and maybe do more stuff too.
Immi - cheers ya bastid, and where the fakk have u been?? Yeah I get what u mean bout the colours aren't really gelling well...but on the red pants and pink shirt?? .. everyone knows only da mainmans can pull a stunt like that and still look cool.. This is not you Immi..;D
(btw what happened to that pic u posted here ages ago when u was askin me and bro to collab on a background?? I has some great pinkclouds if u still wanna do it =) well maybe not then.. post it man! I'd wanna see how its goin guy.)
Stolln - Thanks man! Yeah that definetely would be much cooler.. I really am way too lazy to do any o that tho hehe, but thanks for the ideas =) and anyone looking for a site for grooming poodles deserves everything they get! (Now THIS means u Immi!)
Acid - tanks, Yeah the beyond looks kinda murky but I did wanna make it like dissapearing into the black like that. Probably its too vague tho.
Proximo - Cheers man, There is no face on the tongue btw, u is just mad =)
Joachim - Cheers geezer, Yah me and kyri is the gruesome twosome >;p be careful or we come kill u soon. Loved your b/w on mickes post btw! I was wondering if u will be doing a tut on that soon?? That would be killer!
Hurricane - Thanks guy, soon I will invertit and post it again for some more feedback hehe
Nex - Thanks! I did think about texturing the type too actually, I didn't wanna over do it cause the image already has a lot of texturing but I think I will try it subtely.
Kat - Thanks kat =), maybe I will evenfinish the site too! Right after I get to inverting this tho..heh
Sedone - You has just inpired me
I can't believe I just typed all that...and now I sleep...
