hello guys, uptill now i was using Photoshop just for retouching the photos and was just playing around with brightness and hue and all. I got a nice tutorial. I made a quite amount of changes in them and created the following photo... photoshop professsionals please rate it on a scale from 0 to 10 (0= shockingly bad , 10=stunningly good) ... i wanna know where i stand... Also give some suggestions and websites tht provide tutorials...
Thank u all.... :)

ya i used the flower only.... but then it was going much tougher as per the mag... so ran my own imaginations wild... with the elements of nature (earth, fire, water, wind ) but now WORLD WIDE WEB shud also be considered as an inevitable thing for human beings... so included WWW too... ;) and the OM in the middle signifying the deep unity between god and science.

Looks fine... But, I don't see a meaning in it.all.. Google's power ? Take out the text, and ask people what they think would/should be its title.. ask for a description of the image...... You ask yourself.....

I'll give it 6/10

Btw .... check this .... One of My GIMP antics :D *www.deviantart.com/deviation/54370289/
