The reflection is awesome. Possibly you could try it a bit darker, but it looks so good now I wouldnt worry.
Amazing vectors, tom.

I love the reflection, and I love the black background, but I wonder how it would look with a shiny gradient for the background?

the reflection is good, but i think it needs a slight gaussan blur and maybe get stretched vertically for a little distortion and a greater sense of distance
awesome job. heh. i have a soft spot for minimalistic wp's

Cool!

I like what you've done here, but there's a lot that can be added to this.

I think you should keep the reflection because it looks awesome. It reminds me of a reflection off water (hint hint?).
I think you should also add some texture/details on the butterfly's body.

The background could be a little brighter but I don't really mind.


Great stuff.

Awesome dude, I'd use a gradient for the background, it gives reflections more of a shiny look, if you lose the reflection, keep the background black, if you decide to keep the reflection, lighten the background.

keep the reflection because it's stupendous. I don't care what you do about the background.
