preliminary pack
I've finally decided to release a few of the presets I've done, and I'd like some suggestions/critisism, etc. before I submit the final pack. Thanks a lot.

Good stuff, Ghostly is one of the most awesome flow-type presets i've ever seen. Great effect on that one!

Others weren't bad either though i don't like the colors & visual style used on them, but that's just a taste thing :)

nice refreshing n00b pack :P

seriously though this is an alright pack (IMHO) some of the presets still have a pang of n00b style (rgb colours naff dms)... but others are nicely polished. Although I disagree with tug's rave review of ghostly (martian sky is a nicer flow for me) others really stand out to me... like attack of the neon which I like so much I wish it had my name next to it ;)

overall I'd say a promising new artist

Well, almost all the presets still have that newbie-touch to them... the crunchy shapes of flower factory, the murkyness of gelatinous, the RGB-ness of ret(i)na, the oversaturated water effect of stained glass, etc.

Just needs some more work to be a great pack.

maybe it's not the pack of the year, but it's still quite good! Congrats!
My favourite is african tapestry. Really has got this "african-style".
