It is hard to judge some things as your description of what you wanted was not very in-depth. One last thing are the snowflakes, they could use some more tweaking. But this is a very enjoyable image over all. ===== From rjhansen@myrealbox.com: Good winter feel. I like the tree. ===== From pokorny@attglobal.net: This image reminded me very much of a warm, winter postcard I might send to my mom. ===== From tom@tomandlu.co.uk: Makes me think of a comic book called Preacher and a character called The Saint of Killers. ===== From lamere@speakeasy.org: Surreal ===== From lrwii@joplin.com: Like sky and the snow indented around the fence post.
