Design Competition: Final

So, my final composition ended up being completely different than my preliminary ideas. My project is for the Conqueror Typographic Games 2012, the website can be seen here. I took Heather's advice from my preliminary round two design and tried out a duotone on my background image. I tested a bunch of different colors and finally decided that the picture looked best using black and green. For most of the text, I just used Times New Roman and I used two other decorative fonts for 'what' and 'conquer' because I wanted those words to stand out more. I also created an outer glow for both words. My design is still very simple, but I think the duotone background with just black and white text looks much better.
