I am SO glad this image with lots of noise/grain got a good placement. It was one of my favorites.

Wonderful image that I wouldn't readily recognize without the title, but acceptably unrecognizable as stationery-with-a-twist. Very pleasing image.

great idea, nice crop but think the color noise detracts from the subtle beauty of the design of the paper. we all know post-its are yellow, why not embrace it and maybe use a contrasting color for the background?

Some green reflection on the background threw me off. You're likely to get reamed up the butt for grain, but I like the effect.

Well framed, looks much better as a thumbnail due to excessive noise. Grainy could look nice in another photo. Edges of the paper were well done. The greens have turned to blues in portions of the photo, which is distracting. Background would be better if it were darker. That said, nice idea, simple pattern makes a nice photo, I think you're well on your way. Good Job!

Funky shot. The colors and texture (noise or film grain I am guessing) make this stand out well. Has a cool artsy feel to it.

I don't personally like the grain - only reason for 9 instead of 10

The texture looks almost like grass. I liked this, but I want to know if that's how the post-it notes look, or is that noise generated by the camera.

I like the idea. Did you turn up the Saturation too much? I see some blue pixels towards the top. 7

I would like it better if it wasn't so grainy. That might be my screen, though.

I really like this idea. It makes a nice abstract. It looks over sharpened which gives it unnatural texture but the more I look at it, the more I like it. Good job.

Very arty. Eye-catching.

It's a shame the top post-it note was cropped off just slightly.

Good job on the post processing to give the paper noise as it now looks like the texture of leaves. Creative!
