~Colour/Color [3/3]
Its a good use of colour, they're very (electric?) and it's just a good use of colour, texture and imagry.

~Font [2.5/3]
The font is very good, it's clear and I like the gradation you've used on the quote.
Credits are a bit strange, however, perhaps placing them together either near the title, or at the bottom.

~Image Suitability [3/3]
I like the images that you have chosen for this, they suit the modo and you've blended them really well.

~Overall layout [3/3]
It's very clear, very nice and simply. Mm... I do have a thing against the paper edges thing (paper hole binders in general)
But still overal very nice.

~Colour/Color [3/3]
Very strong colours used here, the black and white seem rather intense, but good for the graphic.
The light dashes of colour, especially when using reflective colour makes it look really professional.

~Font [3/3]
The quote (although lovely) is a bit hard to read, perhaps the blur (?) effect or the font used,
however I suppose if you had used any other font it wouldnt have looked as good.
The credits are wonderfully done, and just nice overall.

~Image Suitability [3/3]
I like the images you've used, you've been able to find a good image of Jae to use, as well as the added details,
of the chains and camera.
Very good use of stock images and blending.

~Overall layout [3/3]
It is nice, I do like it, the intensity of the poster is awesome.

~Colour/Color [3/3]
Very bold use of colour here, you've managed to use very strong shades of blue and black.
It's very effective with the choice of images, that you've used to blend.

~Font [2/3]
The title font leaves a lot to be desired, it looks very boring and a bit... odd, like it was handwritten.
For the mood of the poster, I sort of expected a more fanficul or elegant font to be used.
The quote font however is very nice.

~Image Suitability [3/3]
Very good use of character images, they look so intense!
and the way that you've been able to use them with the liquid in the wine
just looks amazing.

~Overall layout [2/3]
It is overall a nice layout, the main problem is the font for the title.
If this had been changed then maybe the entire poster would have looked a bit more coherent.

Extra: I do like your artwork, you have a good sense of style with it. =)Phebs

~Colour/Color [3/3]
You've used really bright colours for this, it really does make it seem like a colourful and happy piece. You've also used the lighting effects, or background textures rather well, because it just helps draw your eye to focal points, such as the characters.
As well as this, the same sort of colour combination of yellow, orange, red and white is used around the graphic, which creates a unity around the graphic, and doesn't look mismatched.

~Font [3/3]
You've used really good font for this, and because you've used black and white on a poster that is mainly bright and colourful, you've drawn attention to the words. This also makes it clearer to see what the words are and is a main focal point.
The use of the colour black also helps intensify the words, and because you've used a mainly simple font, you didn't go over the top with the style. It helps it create an elegant mood when you just use simple fonts, and with the colour of it as well, it just looks really simple and clean.
There aren't any quotes on this graphic, which is wonderful because I think quotes would have been more difficult to place here. However, the credits are wonderful because you've added it as your own signature that is unique to your designs.
~Image Suitability [3/3]
You've used great images for this, all the characters have a sort of relaxed face and appearance so it helps show that it will be a very relaxed, probably romantic storyline. As mentioned before you've also added the hue of yellow, orange, red and white amongst the images, so this just creates a unity that blends together wonderfully.
Speaking of blending, you've done a great job with it in this graphic, especially how you've made it appear like a puzzle but still made it look like each image blended into each other.

~Overall layout [3/3]
The overal layout is really well done, you've managed to combine all the images, the textures, font and colours really well so that it doesn't look cluttered and overbearing to the overall graphic.
It's usually difficult to work with so many characters, especially when you're trying to convey an overall mood, but you've managed to make the most of the choices you had, and you've finished it very creatively and uniquely.

~Colour/Color [3/3]
You've used very simple colours here; beige and yellow, and you can't really go wrong with it when you use it with texture such as the one that you've used. You've also created highlights with white textures and such, which just makes it look really clean, neat and bright.
With these colours you've also matched the little sign that you've added there, and also the straw image/texture that you've added near Changmin's image. Everything really matches together well, and it's got the same sort of theme in the entire graphic.

~Font [2.5/3]
The font is simple, and it does match the graphic. However, to draw more attention to the text you could have used a darker colour, or perhaps a different colour, but then again if you chose to do this, it would draw attention away from the main image, and deviate away from the style you've got going.
Or perhaps you could have used a white, or black and changed it to a [screen] or [soft light] resolution and see how that could have worked out, because it does look good, you could have just made it stand out a bit more with some well placed light or a different font colour.
~Image Suitability [2/3]
I love changming, really I do. However you can't really see him that well, as the texture that you've used with the straw obscures main image of himself. Perhaps if you had used the texture at a different opacity or used a different texture itself it would have blended in better.
In saying that, I mentioned that you use white section, to create the effect of light, and you could have done this instead of the straw. The other alternative is to choose a differnet image of Changmin, that could have suited the image better.
Such as a full face shot, that could have been blended into the circle that you've got him in. This way you've still got Changmin there, but you've just made him more the focal point, because really... we're just here to look at him. *wink*

~Overall layout [2.5/3]
You've done well with the layout, it's a happy birthday banner, and you've managed to show this in the layout and text used. The use of the label, with the string really adds another dimension to the graphic, with the texture.
As mentioned before, the image could have been altered a bit to show a bit more of Changmin, and to just help create a clearer focal point, as at the moment, the focal point is the label.

~Colour/Color [3/3]
You've used a lot of contrasting colours here, from the brown all the way to the electric blue/green/yellow on the butterfly. The way that you've used the lighting effects on the butterfly as well, just looks wonderful.
It looks really simple, clean and you've been able to balance the texture well with the white background and the image of Minho, as you've not kept Minho in just black and white, but in a brown hue.

~Font [3/3]
For just the font, you've managed to do a well job with choosing it, it's simple and plain and it's just on the borderline of the white/colour section. You've not opted to colour the 'Choi Minho' section of the font, which is a good choice as if you had done the text in black it would have been distracting and not looked as appealing.
~Image Suitability [3/3]
You've chosen a great full image of Minho here, and you've also repeated the image on the top right hand corner. This helps create a fluency in the graphic, because you didn't change the image, you've used the same one, and in doing that it doesn't create confusion with the layout.

~Overall layout [3/3]
You've used an excellent use of colour and texture here, you've done an incredible job with the colour and just the placement of the images. It looks really coherent and I think you've done an amazing job with this wallpaper.

Extra:
You don't really have a problem with fonts, it's just on the occassion that you need to choose different colours or font, or use a different style for it [soft light] etc.

Firstly, thank you to all the drop by my story blog and the compliments on the layout. I am glad many likes it. ^^
