Here's a new one. I still can't get my color profile right though. It looks so much brighter and vibrant in photoshop.

might be a good start for something but needs more work.

smudge good
everything else bad

If anyone knows why images are brighter before uploading help me out. I've tried everything and cannot get them to match up.

I had a problem with my browser, it reduced the quality of all pics in d2jsp, couldn't figure out why so had to switch my browser.

I've tried others and it's not that. It's probably my color profile or something.

this is cool start
except did you add noise? if so I think its a tad too much

No, I noticed it too and tried to remove it. Somewhere on it something added a lot of noise and I didn't feel like hunting it down. I was just trying a tutorial anyway.

Photoshop wasn't set to use my monitors color profile, so lets see if my next project comes out right.
