~Mood 3/3
You seem to have captured a very bright and excitable mood with this. With the combination of the images and the colors.
Also, if you cover the top section, the bottom can still be used as a stand alone graphic, very versatile.
~Colour/Color 2/3
The color choices are bright and combine different gradients which aren't overpowering and draw attention to the characters.
The colors of the top half however, are muted and not as bright, which doesn't draw much attention to it as the bottom, and seems to be from another fanfic. However, it doesn't deduct from the overall appearance.
~Font 3/3
Very subtle and yet still very noticeable. The background does not drown out the words of the title and the author. The credits are darker but does not draw attention away from the other texts.
Very well executed on your part.
~Image Suitability 2/3
Well chosen images, they're very uplifting and suitable for the graphic overall. The only qualm I have is with the image of the second girl on the right. All the other images have dashes of yellow in the images, from a scarf, wall or a jumper.
That image is the only one without, and it seems that you colorized it to show some yellow, but it still remains the odd one out.
~Overall layout 3/3
Very neatly laid out. The borders at the bottom are light and do not create a restrictive space for the graphics, and the white-black border around the exterior of the graphic are still thin enough not to draw too much attention to it, but it creates a very clean finish.
Total: 13/15
~Extra
Even if this isn't like any other fanfiction poster, that's what most designers attempt to do, be unique.
You should be happy that you are able to achieve unique posters instead of the same ones being given.
Blending can be very difficult, and if you don't feel like you can blend well, stick with that which you know you are good at.
You are a very capable designer, and I hope this helped you realize that a bit. :]
