If you want C&C, please upload photos here so people can look at the photo as they type their comments, instead of making them click on a link and open another browser window.

Also, if you want C&C on edits you have done, please also post the un-edited photo.

can you give me some more info on how I can improve

It appears that the image is so small (as in about avatar size) that it is being enlarged and horribly pixelated.

Hence the "Ick" comment, and I tend to agree with it.

I purposely made it look like that though it was part of my photoshop editing, is that a horrible look

What were you trying to accomplish?

Looks like what scraig said, looks like a pixelated picture, like you took the photo with a low quality camera. I'd personally skip trying to make photos look this way myself.

Well, it is to me. Very grainy and pixelated. I spend a lot of time making sure photographs are sharp and in focus, and would never waste that effort with a bunch of Photoshop effect filters. But if it's what you like then go with it.

Good exposure, good skin tones, and an interesting subject. Wish you hadn't cut the top of her head off though.

It's not a 'horrible look'. It's an 'I took a reasonably good image, found a random filter in Photoshop, and applied it' look.

I seriously doubt this was the end result that you intended to have when you started. Filters are fun and can be used to create all sorts of interesting effects. But this is simply the wrong image for this filter.

Use the right tools for the job. When I go to clean my windows, I use a rag and glass cleaner. I don't pick up a hammer, bust all the glass and say, "Hey everybody.... look what I did!"

I think you applied a "painting" effect, and those things never look that good. They look *cool* and catchy, but not good.

Also, the kid's lips are.. interetingly colored. Was she playing with makeup? That's a very cute thing to do, but if it's not clear that she's Playing With Makeup that kind of color just looks disturbing, and it's not clear to me that she's playing.

The little girl might like that processing, but most of us here would probably not do that. If you want C&C, I would recommend that you start with normal photos, with just light editing to enhance them... that way we can make suggestions on how you can improve. Posting them here would be preferred to a Link also... as many of us will not click links.

Yes.

It seems newbies feel the need to establish a "style" that will set their work apart from the unwashed masses. Whether you choose to pursue that path or not, I suggest that you first learn the rules that you intend to break. Then break them with style, sensitivity, and panache. Hopefully you can break them in a way that will draw applause rather than scorn.

Please post something else.

Not without being able to see the original.

What is the reasoning for making it look like you took the picture through a shower door?
