I'm not sure why this would have pulled a 4.8. The image is ok and it worksokwith your message. I would reference some of the other posters in the challenge and take some notes on how to place your text on the poster for more impact. The wording of your phrase is slightly odd, but I know this is not your native tounge (still it may be worth asking someone privately before the challenge justto be sure).

Overall I thought this was a decent entry. Good luck!

Beautiful butterfly capture. Following more of a classic 'motivational poster' design and including a keyword which embodies the messsage you convery here would probably have jumped this up quite a bit in the ranking. Still at 5.9, the photo itself was obviously appreciated by many and rightfully so.

Well looking at most of the other entries in the challenge, this one did not really offer up any sort of poster but rather a snapshot of some animals. I think this disconnect between entry and challenge (or at least challenge expectations) is really all there is to provide feedback on here.

Nice image that worked well with your quote. The text itself sort of disappears into the photo. It should really be the first thing about the poster that catches the eye. Photo is nice. Could be a bit sharper and it might have been good to level out that horizon line a bit if it didn't make the towers look wonky.

This was a very solid entry and its score shows that to be true.

Thefont of the quote is a bit hard to make out at these small image sizes, but given the wordiness you only had so much real estate to work with.

Little bit more contrast in the photo, and if possible to do so without introducing other problems it would be even better were that log perfectly horizontal.

Overall this was great. Scored well, but I'm suprised it didn't place a bit higher.

I thought this was a creative entry, held back in large part by a rather lackluster font.

Having your keyword in the image itself is really great.

One thing I didn't get (and still don't) is why the turtle is facing away from the starting line.

I thought this was a funny entry, but also one that presented the motivational poster 'package' perfectly. Image matching message, font, design - all dead on.

The lighting isn't the best on the cups, but what really threw me (given my assumption that this was a reference to drinking games) was why these cups weren't filled with beer?

Perhaps you play drinking games with 12oz. cups of vodka. Truly you are a braver man than I.

I actually already commented on this image, so I won't bother repeating myself.

Well done!

The only thing that kept this image from scoring even higher (setting aside ridiculous political voting) is the font. This is a great photo and works perfectly with your quotation. If you had gone with more of a classic font, at least on the word Home, the message would have much more impact on the poster and the whole package would just come together perfectly.

This was a great capture. I think the score this got was well deserved.

Whenever possible, you should try and submit an image that is as large as allowed by the ruleset and conforms fairly closely to the classic ratios we are used to seeing (2:3, 4:5, etc). This image looks a bit squashed due to the crop.

Great capture and it works well with the quote. There may have been other quotes that might have resonated better with viewers (look before you leap comes to mind), but this is ok.

The font choice doesn't work well at all. Perhaps it is supposed to give a humorous feel? There's just nothing about the image that a far-east sort of font complements or is complemented by.
