I like youre avatar! I love a good cup of coffe!

Thanks!  And that's ok :P

Very nice! Sorry I hit the use for avatar instead of add to favorites for a second there. 

take out the black outline

Awesome. The lines may look a bit jagged, but great otherwise.

nvm, I googled it, no need to explain or link for the noob :P  It almost seems like the opposite of anti-aliasing an outside border, which I know is a no-no.  I'll experiment a bit.  Thanks!

Thanks for the pointers, all!  I'll remove the outline and see what it looks like after.  I don't know why I kept it TBH, maybe I thought it would blend in with the default pixeljoint background too much.  I'll give it a shot though.

Jeremy, what is selout?

There's a couple of oddly jagged bits on the arcs- one on either side of the rim and base.

The internal AA is just  accentuating the jagginess, I think, try some selout maybe?

I'm wondering about the dark outlines, too, but I also can say... better than my stuff.

realistic colours don't usually work too well but here you have proven that they can be used to present a wonderful piece, well done :)

Only problem are the dark outlines, they ruin the realistic look totally!

I wonder why you used dark outlines. But this is very well shaded.

 Your palette is very realistic. :)
