well the second to last one in my opinion is a bit plain, and some of the colours dont match. It kinda looks like the top half is part of one theme, and the bottom is part of another. So i guess you could improve by having a more specific theme in mind, and keeping it more colour co-ordinated

' T H I S ' ' I S '  The success of an avatar is all about Idea Concept and Color Scheme
In the Idea concept there's two types:
~Theme concept in which it's based on a theme were you should add items that doesn't take away from the theme.
~Clutterness concept in which you randomly put everything you have on but you got to make sure it doesn't go overboard. Moderate clutterness can actually look good.
Now for the color scheme.
In here we'll work with the "Color Wheel". Remember Black and white aren't consider actual colors since they are neutral colors. Meaning they complement anything greatly.
Now for the types of this theory:
~Monochrome: It's a color Scheme in which the whole avatar involves with one color. Take for example yellow. You can take two or three different tones of the same color and put them into your avatar for contrast sake. Also Neutral color doesn't hurt.
~Complementary: A color schemes in which two exactly one of the other opposite colors from the color wheel are put together in an avatar. This contrast of each other brings out the well about both colors and that's why they compliment.
~Split Complementary: Uses the same principle for the Complementary on but isn't it's based on three colors. Also instead of choosing the exact opposite, you choose the 2 closest shades of that color from the color wheel.
~Analogous: It means that they are a set of colors that are closest to each one another on the color wheel. They generally span from 3-4 colors. They have a blendy feel.
Always always always...remember that the key to a great color scheme or theme is that there should be the right amount of distribution of colors to all parts off the avatar and also that not all the same shades of colors perfectly matches an avatar. You should always try to find the exact shade or the closest to it. For example: You're making an avi with the colors red and green. But you suddenly start to use every type of shade of red out there...that wouldn't make your avatar harmonious in colors.
Also remember that the color wheel is just a theory...you can go with any match you want but what I said about Shades, distribution and stuff is important.

' T H I S ' ' I S ' Yup, that's true...exploration is also the key to the success of an avatar. Explore to find new cool looking combos that may in fact start an avatar for yourself. ' S U C H ' ' A ' ' D R A G '

 Alright, working on this one since the main consensus is that it sucks. Any items in mind? The main theme is "Warrior Angel." EDIT: Ok, I deviated from "Warrior Angel" to "Angel of Death." As you can see...  ...it's an utter mess. Any suggestions? I'm going for a design using blue and black or monochrome black.

No, all the tektek past a certain date were...deleted or corrupted of something. Anyway, you guys can find the rest of creation and more at my topic at Avatar Talk. You have to resave them by going to the link, clicking "Edit my Avatar," and resave it. I'll be more active there.
