    I like the first one but the text is hanging above the original picture, that doesn't really look good. If you use an image editing program, play a bit with the blending mode (screen, overlay, hard light) of that text layer. Or add some shadow on the text. Or use the original picture without text or just put the text in one of the corners of the image.

    The planet looks gorgeous! Did you make that yourself?

    It is from a screen saver, you can see it on the screen in the 2 pics of the inside of the notebook.

    Those are cool, but I have bad luck with vinyls, after about a year and a half they start peeling and end up looking awful. Same thing with paint. (I just have bad luck with cosmetic upgrades in general)
