This matte is actually the same hue of frond as the girl and swan the colors came out a little wonky on camera

i couldn't really get a good shot of the Field of Dreams one, there is actually a very transparent ink layer on on the field, so that as people approach it the light angle hits it just right and the players appear. It's a pretty cool effect and one of the many times I'm able to say that those guys at Decoder Ring Design Concern are brilliant

Ok, so I need some opinions on this... I just got this back from the framer, and I don't know if I love it or not. Please give me all your comments and suggestions, 'cause I may have them re-do some things. I must say that I really liked the "idea" of this, but... well, you tell me what you think...

I think it looks pretty bad-ass. Some of the lines are off, but that may be intentional in some spots, and it kinds of adds to the flow.

If it was mine i'd be psyched, pretty custom and unique!

Thanks for the kind words. The lines were intentionally off because I felt like it would go better with the randomness of the print's border. I am still indifferent about the color choices... I was initially thinking I would do the second (inner) matt yellow, but then, of course, they didn't have any bright yellows (understandably), so we went with the "pinkish" color. I also cannot decide if I like the blue outer color...

But I am glad to hear that some else likes it. And don't get me wrong, I think it's awesome, but I just don't know if it detracts from the greatness of the print, or if it flows with it fully.

I guess I also feel that in some places there is a little to much "pink" color showing, and in some other places a little too much white border showing.

Keep it as is. I think everything flows nicely together and as far as the lines being a off- it adds character.

i can totally see what you are getting at/may be concerned about, but as previously stated by others...i love it this way and would def. keep it, but if it bothers you, and will do so everytime you look at it for life...then, i'd consider a change...if only for sanity sake!

again, personally, i really like it!

If I would change anything, I would lose the red and go with something more like the purple in the shaded areas of the design.
Otherwise, perfect!
