| I think it's the red stars on the blue background that hurts the eyes. And possibly that the photo seems to be hovering so high about the background. It's a nice photo though. Yay! |

| I changed the background colour to red and the stars to blue. Picked the red and blue colours from the girl´s clothes. Both rather dark and it worked quite well. |

| I think it's not so much the color that is the problem but that the intensity is the same inside and outside the picture. The eye is bounced around while they fight for doninance. Plus the light rim at the top says the picture is behind the blue the shadow below of course says it's way above the blue. Try putting a small solid white border between the green and the blue. |

that would be great if I knew how to do it i use the line tool but cumbersome to use getting just a thin white border around the pic
i may stick with this one //www.pbase.com/image/7768711

In photoshop to do bounding lines : two easy ways.
Select the thing you want to put a line around, select the
foreground colour to be the outline you want. Then use the
'stroke' command to brush around that selection boundary.
Or, bring the piece you want to have an outline into a layer and
use the layer styles to add a 'stroke' edge to the layer.
