It's got alot of aliasing going on. I don't really know PS so I couldn't help, but if you fixed that it would be pretty cool. I like the maroon colored one. Nice.

Interesting effect. What estwing said is true, it seems to be rather brokenm along the edges to me also.

One other thing, I don't quite think the style/position of the text matches with the looks of the rest of the background.

Nice, especially for being new to PS. My first reaction was to lose the white borders around the blobs to make it more ethereal. But having the border almost makes it look biological, like it's a membrane or something.

If you're looking for ideas to play with, one thing you might want to try is having a very faded dark texture (Difference Clouds, maybe?) in the background to give more depth, make it less "clean" looking.

Reminds me of some of Purge's work from way back. I liked his electric blue best...

Why don't you post them as attachments or in your gallery because your bandwidth has been exceeded. I'd like to take a look.

Well, if it's your preference, roll with it.

I think funky had a nice idea about giving the background some depth.
