Title Screen. C&C wanted

Sir

Hey peeps, just looking for C&C for a title screen.

I was trying to achieve a simplistic Korean styled title, thoughts?

it's probably a good idea to let go of the texture on the top
i mean, what is it anyway?

and also, the emboss stuff on the paw prints and the border of the text don't look good
standard photoshop blending options are often misused, but the bevel/emboss function should never be used
also you could make the text border pure black instead of transparent - less is more!

Thanks for that, i was trying to make it dust/cloud that texture, and yeah i thought of making the border pure black, but i also thought it'd screw with the look. I'll give it another shot later
 
ah clouds.. yeah you could do that, but make them coherent with the grass stuff (ie also solid and vector-y)

ideally the text, border, paws and grass would be in the same style, so there's a (not distracting) background, and a logo/something to focus on. You could also try and place the grass on top of the border, so it looks like it grows out of that.

just a thought
 
I agree with Samot in regards to the texture of the clouds/smoke as well as the paw prints and the box.

standard photoshop blending options are often misused, but the bevel/emboss function should never be used

Whilst I do agree that standard blending options are misuses all too often and the bevel/emboss function can look nasty when used inappropriately (which is most of the time), there are certain situations where it actually adds to the image. For example, the logo in Sir' and my signature is a piece I made and the LS has a pillow emboss which makes the lettering stand out from the wings and give it more of a logo quality. It just has to be used in the right places, the right dosage and in very little quantities. :P

In any case, I was going to say the same thing regarding the clouds. Go with vector lines. Alternatively you could go with Cloud stamps and just kill the opacity or use a blending option which makes them almost invisible, but it just wouldn't look as good.

The border itself is actually unnecessary as you could encase the title into a few clouds and the sun rays... and I've really no idea why the paws are there in the first place.

Anyway, if you need help with it, just let me know and I'll try and fix it up. ;)

Wow, It's pretty rare to see someone making stuff related korea in here..
Cause I'm Korean, I really hope to see stuff like this, LOL

Anyway, I think that title is quite good for simple title.
I think you should change that color of grass little bit
