I say leave it as is. I like the Time Tower.

Meh, I'd make the background more yellow. Right now the background contrasts too much with the factory, so the factory looks really out of place.

Meh, I wanted it contrast, so that you can see it more clearly. Let me see if I can make it more yellow and still make it work.

I think like someone in the previous topic said that the rewind should be blurred rather than just lightened or darkened atm I prefer the original.

I think that Time pillar/tower deserves a change in background since the new pillars have new art and time didn't change before because it was unique, but now the new pillar arts are too good, so now the time pillar is a bit behind.

Yeah, I was the one that said blur. Are these any better:

I'd vote for that blurred one if it was an option. The other ones just seem a bit too much like the background and tower are competing for attention instead of being a cohesive image.

The Time Factory seems really poorly cropped. The edges are too rough. If I have time, I might trace the outline of that thing and see if I can crop better.

Yeah, please do. Cropping makes my head hurt, since I do it pixel by pixel. For some reason it blends in for the first four I did, but stands out in these two.

xD The Blurred background ones looks like poor rendering to me. Darken and blur the edges of the factory, don't give it that messy glow.  :P
I still think this card needs a completely new look though, I don't even know what that puny thing in the middle of the picture is, could even be a creature.  :o
