originally I had the background light cyan -- but since that was quite boring to the eye, I decided to go with this modest duo-color design. thanks for pointing that out, those problematic aa spots are now fixed; same with the cropping -- I've given it an 1px blank and an 1px black frame. I might try and shoot some more of them, just as you and Lackley, if I remember correctly, did -- I really loved that chunk-esque style.
This is nice, tho I think the cropping is a bit unfortunate at the bottom, The chin could have some more space.
The sides too actually, I do not think it would lose any of it's graphical quality.
Also, the cyan to blue aa on the right does not really work.
