Lol very nice. The guy in me likes this picture because it's sexy, interesting, and very beautiful. Naturally, part of the reason I stopped by to comment on the image itself.
However, the artist in me says it's a good picture for various different reasons. I'm sure your tired of hearing other guys how good looking you are, so I'll instead focus on the artistic quality of the image itself.
For starters, its interesting because it shows a good basic fundamental understanding of what it takes to take a good photograph. It's light, bright, and dynamically interesting. I actually applaud you for using a sheet as a background, mostly because as an artist who spends his time drawing, sheets, drapery, and curtains are one of the most fascinating, and contrasting things to draw because of all the shadows and lights. Plus, it contrasts well with you as a figure, because your generally sleek, slender, and not so much different in creating shadow and light.
Still, if I had to leave a critique, I'd more than likely say that the image itself could still use a lot of work in the lighting. While the sheet and yourself do a fine job creating a difference, and showing off texture, the fact remains that the image itself is still far too light. I'd say try to turn down the light, cover the window, and try to use a harsh light from a lamp, or a whitelight or something to create sharper shadows. that might make it go from simple "Portrait of cute girl lounging on futon" to "Artistic show in shadows on different textures". Is something to think about.
Still. Good job

Thank you very much! Its nice to actually get critique from someone instead of "oh thats nice." I agree with what you said. I will use your critique in the next shoot as this one was a quick one and we (sciezka and I) didn't really think about the lighting. Once again, thank you very much! I've been wanting critique and you're the first to give it! ^^

Lol don't get me wrong. I could have just as easily said "Ohhh wow your pretty", and left it at that. Cause frankly, you are as I said 
So I like to help out artists I stop by to comment on. I like the feeling of helping someone out, and hopefully I'll get to see if you take some of what I said in practice. It always makes me feel good when I do something like that for someones who's skill I admire

I will use what you said! Looking at it now, I want to reshoot it without all the light. Thank you for the compliment!

And here I am again wanting to say thank you XD. Very true, no one can say no to an interesting conversation.

Lol keep thanking me, and I just might stick around you know. And I know. I know I certainly can't
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Then maybe I shall keep thanking you. Its nice talking to people and I wish people would stick around longer to actually start a conversation.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Lol eventually you'll run out of thanks. Maybe I'll have to comment and critique something else so you'll have something to thank me on? And I know, it often feels like they stop by to compliment you, expecting you to do the same to them, when it's often far better to have a fun conversation. How else do people expect to make friends? Most of the people on my watch list are other artists who I've had fun conversations with

Lol how can I not think your interesting? I think you take very good photo's, and your a theater geek. Those two things put together, I think, make a very fun combo of interests. Maybe I'm weird that way though
