You might want to use some reference, since HDTVs generally have a black screen when they're off, not a blue one.

Okay... I know.

Remember when you got the PS2 or xbox, and you wanted to put it on video 2?

Video 1 was a blue screen like this.

This could use dithering...among other things.  :y:  Good luck.

i like how you've taken the title flat screen TV and put it beside a piece shaded as though it were beveled, and combined it with a glare to reinforce that curve.  the irony of it really makes the piece.

either this is very postmodern, or you need a title change and a reference photo.

Beveled? Glare? Curve?

I know what these words mean...

But I have no Idea what you just said. I just did some random shading.

PS:

Keeping your address in your signature might not be a good Idea...

What he said is: "It's a bit ironic calling it flat, because right now it looks very round"

And to solve the 'random shading', looking up some reference could be a good idea O;

we have security desks, and it helps people reach me.  it's at the end of every email i send, too.  i get sick of typing the same info over and over....

I know... I just feel a bit left out since everyone does it for everyone else.

You got lots of crits in form of text. That should be enough to work on an edit and try to improve what was said. You wont get edits all the time.

Everyone has pretty much told you what's weird about it, do a little more work and people are probably going to give you an edit. Not everyone likes doing edits. Some people like drawing diagrams and reference images. Here's something that could help.

Flat <<--   -->> Not Flat
The flat screen is of course flat. The not flat screen isn't flat, it has a lens shape. It looks like you have a flat frame with a lens screen instead of a flat surface.
So just imagine the shape like this (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v189/SariK/flat-notflat_shape.png)
It's just a thin box. the screen doesn't bend or "bubble" out. It's flat. Making it a flat screen.
Well I hope those help. If they don't, use google. :D
