Really good idea! This is a great first wall! My thoughts/concerns:
The characters in the top left are jagged. You need to blend them into the
background. I suggest first using the blur tool then the color burn tool to make
the edges fade in.
The character under the tree is alos jagged. He needs to stay crisp, so use the
pen tool or polygon lasso tool to extract the rough areas so he's
smooth.
The tree and the grass are too pixelated at the edges. Use the pen tool/polygon
lasso to make more organic shapes, and use the grass brush to make realistic
grass. Also, there are some ghosts of grass just above the horizon
line.
Here's my most serious concern: ghosting. I personally think that this is more
of a collage than ghosting because there is obviously a concept going on here.
It's really interesting. I'm going have to leave the decision of whether or not
it's illegal ghosting to the mods.
In the mean time, this is a fabulous first effor and it won't take much to clean
it up!
I can see what's going on here, but as sailorchiron said, the jagged lines of
the black figure under the tree have to be fixed up.
I'd personally get rid of the central faded image and the one in the top left
hand corner. I'd keep the ones on the right (the two guys standing... I might
get rid of the flying people), but even so, the ones on the right should be
extracted much better and of better quality. For instance, the edges have been
faded out probably by a soft edged eraser. I'd start from scratch, extract it
properly so the edges are sharp enough- select the characters (use the magic
wand), right click, feather. Feather it several times and experiement with
different radii. The feather option makes the edges fade out a bit, but not so
prominently.
The diagonal white line if possible should be set at like 2% or just gotten rid
of, and on a new layer, select a dark blue, use a thick heavy brush and draw
over where the diagonal line is, go to your filters> gaussian blur> 150
(or as you wish) and keep doing so until the blackish part on the left blends in
more with the part on the right. If this 'blob' covers your tree and stuff,
double click the layer and experiment with the first drop down menu: from normal
to colour, or colour burn. Make sure the preview option is ticked and have some
fun!
Last but not least I'd make the text a bit higher for those with desktop
taskbars, and to also make the writing a bit smaller
Experiment, have fun and hope to see you post here with a revised version! ^^
Asthetically, its a bit crammed. Too many things going on at once. They are all
spaced out too much, some placed in odd places, making it difficult to
interprete what is going on in the image.
well updated the wall again this time i made the grass more realistic looking(im
using ps 6 so i had to make my own grass brush)
version 1 no silhouette( version 2 silhouette
ps: i kinda need help with blending the chars on the right into the background
because i think they stand out to much but maybe im just crazy
I think I perfer the one with the siloet out of the two here it looks a little
more forlorn and goes well with the words It's a wonderful improvment from the
first one.
This looks like a good start at a Naruto and Sasuke wallpaper. I'd clear out all
the images and put an image of Naruto in the upper left corner and an image of
Sasuke in the lower right corner. I'd also put a silohette (sp?) of Sasuke
sitting on the other side of the tree from Naruto. I'd pull the moon to the left
so that it divides across the line and integrate an image of Kakashi watching
over Sasuke and Naruto or a better image of Naruto and Sasuke getting ready to
battle or shaking hands.
I prefer the non-chibi one but then again I've never been much of a fan of
cutesy stuff. Its good that you added Sasuke and it balances the wall a little
better.
I prefer the non-chibi one as well, because the chibis look out of place and
doesn't fit with the darkness of the rest of the picture (when I think chibi, I
think pink and purple and sparklies )
Also, I find the background too sharp and realistic compared to your
silhouettes. Like the moon for example. It's a photograph and thus has way too
much details and sharpness for the image. Try using the median filter (set at
about 4-5), and smudge it a bit. Same with the leaves, they're way too
realistic.
The text placement looks fine, but I'm not sure if that's the best font to
use... it just looks kinda random.
my first wall...any suggestions on how to do better are appreciated

i just remembered that i should post my wall here since ive changed it a bit
without flowers and chibi

which one do you think is better?
