That's pretty good, just blend in your images more, and work on your text. It'll make it look alot better!

I'd recommend thinking more about design.. the usual things - alignment, visual cues to guide the eye, etc. The effects in the background look cool, but everything else is just kind of slapped on, so the net effect looks cluttered and incoherent.

i took your advie, made the people a little smaller, feathered their edges moved the txt, and gave the robot a red eye to match the red dots.

thats better, I would recomend centering the text as well as making the text blend in a little better with the background

Much better, but could still be improved. Try finding a way to connect the two pieces of text together visually. Right now there's a lot of trapped space on the left side, and the robot is looking at nothing in particular.
Maybe if you somehow enhanced the repetition of the two red dots with the robot's eye. Say some kind of red beam coming out of his eye and bouncing off one red dot to the other, to tie everything together? I like the way the dot is in the D of Appleseed. Maybe it should also be inside one of the letters of Aazumak? Perhaps in the counter (the triangular space) of the first A... that way the dot is at the end of one word and the beginning of the next...
As usual, these are not ideas that need to be used as is... just trying to offer some suggestions to get your own creative juices flowing.

the movie apple seed, ina ll the things tyhat say appleseed, there is a red dot in the last D. so i made the robot's eye into a red dot and there is a red dot on the last K in aazumak, i thought it should be in the k cause it is the last letter ans they seem to have a similarity to me
but the idea of a light beam shooting right out of the eye and going off the screen wpuld be great!!! leave the dots as they are but make that beam, which would fill up the rest.
tnks for the idea!

You're welcome. But if that beam is straight, you're going to have a very strong line in the design, so you have to make sure that other things align with it, or else they'll seem like they're floating. If you used the beam as an underline for the title or something, that would be okay.

nice improvement, but I would recommend a diffrent way of blending, duplicate your render, set the bledning mode of the bottom one to overlay, then change the opactiy of the top one to 70%-80%, then desaturate the top one by pressing Ctrl+Shift+U, then put the two layers underneath your color layers, if you used color balance layers this should work very well.
