I think it would have worked better entirely as vectors. Simple, with no effects. Emphasise message over design! :P

I actually like that idea alot. It would be simple too. I may do that when I get home :) That is a great suggestion actually :P

Not rude at all :)
I dabbled a little bit with making the silhouettes the same color as earth, but that looked pretty awful. So as such I think I am going to take Soap's idea and vector an earth, and remove some stuff.
I will post the new result soon.

Either I am blind today or I cannot find the Edit button...
But here is Vector version V1:

Hmm Found the edit button this this one. My main concern is how fuzzy the silhouettes look, I will have to fix it.

Nice concept, but I think it could go alot further.
If you use Illustrator, you would be able to create one vector of the guy and then rotate it round a centre point. (22.5 degrees each time would be the best choice)
This would give even spacings and your people won't overlap. It also means that you could then line up the planet in the exact centre and the people won't have gaps under their feet (compare the left to the right on your image).
Also for an added challenge, if you vectored the planet, then used textures and gradients, it would look really effective and more creative then a Photomanip piece. :)
Nice job though. I like the concept, but you can push this alot further and turn it from great, to amazing. :D
