2,000+ downloads at a short time is impossible. So wronngg. :|

oooohh this is so good.. black and white is really appealing. a good layout for the start of the new year!

oh wowww, good blending, and the blockquote is awesummm. 'grats for the sotd!

a personal fave.

it's amusing to know that guys do girlish layouts. LOL!

a tad too simple, yet congrats for the sotd, perhaps this can be a stepping stone for u to do well next time

norule, i love how u use brushes and textures so well. wait, u love red so much eh??? XD

perhaps moving the box further up, as suggested by many?

yes you may use it of course!

i think nothing's wrong with your layout, the color's fine and it blends well. as for the image, i think there's nothing wrong with it.
