I used my self as reference. I may have executed it wrong (probably needed a smaller concaving body) but I'm pretty sure no neck is the way I wanted it. Tilted left because of how I draw (not really an excuse but is an explenation.).
Propaganda art has strong colors.
edit:
actually, it turned into a triadic color scheme.( Red, Yellow, Blue ) With a touch of green.
although, no neck gives it this slouching effect which further emphasizes computer addiction. If you didn't get the message of my piece yet.

Macfags never get addicted to using their gadgets. They're addicted to buying.

now that you mention I kind of get the no neck thing but.. I think it was a little exaggerated to the point that it doesn't really look great.
I think what you wanted to achieve was the head tilting froward.
for the colors, I'll just go for a .. meh, not a fan.
anyways if I had to rate the work I would give it a 7/10 |

I think she's too detailed for propaganda, but it's pretty neat still.
Also teens of 2011 hardly look like anime. |

It's pretty good, 8/10.
Though the head being off centre really struck, and for a propaganda piece it is too finely detailed. It would look better if it was sort of paper cutout if you get what I mean.
Something sort of like this (just used a filter in Photoshop):

Are you people mad? Why would he center anything that represents the human body? You can't honestly tell me you keep your head completely centered the entire time you're using the computer. And the way she's slouching seems just as accurate. In fact, I think almost everything about the pose is perfect. Even got the proportions good considering the angle. There is one thing though, the hands are identical. It's nothing big though and it's hardly noticeable.
As for the colors, they work. The style may not be specific to any single category, but who cares? It looks good.
Overall it's a good piece and it's a nice transition from generic anime/manga works. Plus it isn't a sig... tired of seeing sig topics.

OHNO You've seen through my hand duplication. I agree with repetetive sig topics. I think the art section should move up a tier from just making sigs and start making art with, goals, color schemes, elements and principles of art and an artist statement.
And for all of you saying that it's too detailed for propaganda; I'm pretty sure there are realism propagandas hanging around in the net, that said. I think too detailed doesn't really exist. I could be wrong though.
E.G.
http://www.glogster.com/media/5/33/79/69/33796943.jpg
http://www.ww2incolor.com/art/poster-f.html
These two pieces made use of semi-realism and semi strong colors for the objects in the piece and used very strong colors on text making it the focal point. Also they used blacks, something that I think my piece lacks.
@deuxx; I dislike what you've done with my piece. Also, I prefer it with details. It gives contrast with the foreground and background. Making the girl even more of a focal point after looking at "2011", assuming we're following the natural movement of the eye.
:D thanks for the interesting feedback guys. It's been a while since I got some since feedbacks on making sigs are just... meh.

I'm pretty sure what ppl meant is not too much detail but contrast of it.
your character is shadowed while the background is on monotone colors |

The shoulders are too broad. Looks like a man in that sense.

I could feel a vice coming from the art, I'd give it a strong rating. Only thing missing from this art is the actual propaganda itself, the text.
As for the part about too much details for a propaganda, it is correct. If the picture is going to look better than the text, who is going to bother reading it? |
