[QUOTE=SediSocks;44951364]I'd say focusing on the middle works for some compositions, but the majority should follow it in some way as it does make your image look a ton better. For example, I've overlaid a grid over Elder's image:

Both characters are slap-bang in the middle. This can feel unnatural to look at as your eyes automatically fall to the right or left of the image. Now if we move them over to the right a bit... (Sorry had to enlarge it a bit)

It begins to be a lot more easy on the eyes.

And all we have done is put the right line over the medic. It doesn't matter that spy is in the center as Medic is the main focus here.
Although you don't always have to follow the rule of thirds, it's usually a lot nicer to look at an image if the subject is placed off the left or right a bit.
(Sorry for using your image as an example Elder)[/QUOTE]
I wasnt arguing it was fine far away. I agree it's better following RoT. I'm just saying don't bank on it, as it's nothing with lots of empty space leftover.
[QUOTE=ElderLolz;44952166]I am completely fine with the things you people say, I can take criticism. But it always feels like it's impossible to satisfy you people with SFM posters unless it's 100% perfect.[/QUOTE]
I know what you're saying with the 100% perfect bit, If you had posted that image when SFM had just been released you would have gotten a lot more praise for it, but now its just another basic poster.
I also made a [URL="http://facepunch.com/showthread.php?t=1397646&p=44952510#post44952510"]new WIP/feedback thread[/URL] on the SFM section to avoid clogging up this thread with work in progress shots.
[QUOTE=ElderLolz;44952673]I was never going for the perfect poster, I was going for another basic poster, nothing you'd use as a workshop promo image
Sorry if what I said wasn't worded good[/QUOTE]
I wish everyone else took criticism as well as you do. hearts to you
I'm back with some shizzy

They were labeled as NES skins right? Or something of that nature.

This peaks my interests, if only the map used proper lighting for the special effects rather then flat polygons.

Actually, someone [I]should[/I] do a legit nightclub map, but with a more late 60s/early 70s disco theme that'd fit TF2.

Like I could see a CTF map where the music and the lighting changes based on who's on the point. That could be neat!

I find it exceptionally impressive that so much of it was (from what I can tell) done in Garry's Mod
god, that was so great it begs to be remade with actual characters, proper voice acting and a feature presentation on cartoon network.

I don't know, the lighting in most of the scenes suggests otherwise. Which would be even more impressive if he managed to do stopmotion in sfm.

i played this the other day, i was laughing so hard it hurt. If anyone sees a server running this get in there right then and there
So this is my first attempt at making a proper SFM poster. It definitely needs improvement so give me all the criticism you've got!
