It looks nice for a first theme, I like it :) I've always wanted to watch Rainbow, though I've never gotten around to it. By the way, the background looks a little low quality. Was that intentional?

Anyway, I've also made my first profile design and would like to share it (Touhou/Wriggle Nightbug version). It's the first time I've made something this big on PS, so it was rather challenging for me to cope with large dimensions. @_@

@Kuraudo_: It's usually best to use high res versions for the images you use especially like the ones for your background but not a bad effort for your first profile design.

@Nigglez: I have to say it's very text overload and the font you've used isn't the most easy on the eyes. Try to keep info short but still interesting.

Thanks a lot for the feedback FiiFO. I'll make it short and straight to the point next time, I did get carried away. I'm going to pay more attention to the typography the next time I work on a profile design.

As Nigglez and FiiFO said...pictures and background look pretty LQ...so unless it was intentional you should up try use higher resolution images.

Text on the images on the left are not very readable.
And the text on the bottom right is to squashed together...I think would be good to push box up...there's enough free space and that way your text won't be bunched up there.

But I do like what your tried doing there :)

Exactly what FiiFo pointed out~
Though some of the other images don't mesh well with the rest of layout to me...might be just because of the difference color.

I know that. They were in high res. but I made them to look like that.

Mhmm...I think you need to increase the width slightly. It looks a little squashed in. I also think having banners breaks the flow of the layout to me. It would have been better to try incorporate what's underneath them into your layout instead of listing them under spoiler tags.

I have been experimenting with the width, but haven't found the right size?
Any help would be appreciated.

Its not a popularity contest if you're referring to MAL profile design contest.
Your profile didnt get enough votes because it doesnt satisfy certain aesthetics all top 10 have.

For example I really dont dig your design. Why?

- its a GIF graveyard
- no harmony in color
- no flow
- hard to know where to look at first
- multiple different styles just thrown in and mixed together
- that horrible, horrible different styles of text
- random umbrellas, kittens, stamps....just horrid
- LQ because of all that GIF

No harmony what so ever. It looks like a teenage girl Myspace page moved to MAL.


You dont have to agree with me, but that profile is just bad design in my view, and probably in eyes of people who judge who will make top 10.
If you are still not sure what Im saying look at those top 10 and all of them have harmonious colors, general theme behind them and are trying to sell a story.

Oh cut the pathetics please.


I said its bad design, not trash.
Design has its rules you know, good design follows them, or puts a different spin on them, but with them in mind.
Bad design just ignores rules and slams everything together.

Second fact you need to learn fast in life. If you put things in public, whether internet or real life, you have to accept to be judged. Its part of the game.
Liars? Are you 10 yo? Somebody gives you direct critique and lists all the elements that need work on, you call them a liar? Real mature.
There is a lot of malicious and biased critique out there but this wasn't one. It was just one you didn't like. Well, there will be those when you make something flawed and put it online in public.

As for need not to see anything. Your choice. I learn as much from my work and from other people work. Both where I do wrong and what I do good.

Sorry, but don't put me in the same category as you. I've been making trash and good profiles for past 3 years and when somebody says it's a trash then it's a trash. I accept that and move forward to make something better, so that somebody would say WOW! YOU SURPASSED YOURSELF! CONGRATULATIONS!

This, this goes for me aswell, This is the creative part, everything here is meant to be judged.
I ask for feedback, i get feedback, i need it to improve my self.
Oh i used many hours? well, since this is a hobby of mine, it wouldn't hurt spend some more hours on doing something i like.

Yes, you overreacted Darklover.
Would you react like this on a workplace? because things you make their will be judged.
If it's bad, deal with it and make something new.

Inb4 DERP HERP YOUR PROFILE DESIGN IS BAD.
Well, instead of that, give me feedback so i can improve till next time.

What the hell? When did the creative corner, a place where people were sharing ideas and constructive criticism, fun things and bad plot lines all together, my MAL refuge, got to the same level of the general discussions?

Seriously, chill.

Nature_boy and DarkLover, stop being so childish, jesus. Do you guys not know what constructive criticism is? I didn't see your profile DarkLover, but I trust Meri for what she said simply because Meri has been designing around these forums long before you even came to MAL.

Meri, don't agitate things more. Show a bit of restrain, not continue pointless discussions. If you see bashing and so, report it, not threaten them to do so.

Now, back to DarkLover, learn to act your age and take criticism. It is hard, but as Meri said, if you post something around the Internet you should also be prepared for the criticism it might come with your actions. Everybody is responsible for their actions, that's all. Strive to do better next time based on the things which were told to you.

@DarkLover: Please accept criticism. If someone is telling you what they don't like then take this and learn from it. Don't see it as a personal attack if you don't win in a competition. Making good graphics isn't something you can learn overnight and a lot of people take several months or years.

@The others: Please make your criticism constructive and keep discussions civil.

@Kigaru - That looks nice, I like the colors. I think you should add some sort of headline on the top, like "welcome to my profile" or something. Would fit between the two faces if you moved them a little. Just an idea.

Updated mine, or rather; created mine.

It's pretty simple at the moment, though that's what I was going for. I may make it more intricate in the future, but I think minimalism and type design fits the Air theme nicely :)

Not bad for one of your first few tries :D

Up to you to change or not if you disagree, but here goes:

Not sure if you meant to overlap the text in the header, but it looks slightly awkward as it is.

The text on the left side is a little hard to read. Maybe it's too small? And serif fonts when small tend to be harder to read, too. >.<

"Version 3.0" and "Layout made by Yoshida_Haru" text is blurry, so hard to read. ^^" May need to change the font size, anti-aliasing, or choice for it to become clear again.

GIF is pretty distracting since it's so quick and sudden, while the rest of the profile looks pretty calm and peaceful.

Hope to see your improvements! :D
