It's the first banner I ever made. I'm taking a photoshop class right now and am decently getting better. Olek didn't book me this week but I'm thinking about a CD rp but for now, I just downloaded a free trial of photoshop elements 8 and tried my hand at my very own banner. Just wanted to get some feedback from the badass banner makers here. So be as harsh as you like. Just thought I'd give it a shot. What do you guys think?

It's ten times better than the first banner I ever made... that was so horrible. :lol:

One tip however -- if you want to do the whole forum background thing save it as a PNG file instead of a JPG and just leave the background completely transparent in Photoshop and the background of the image will just be transparent, otherwise you end up with the background stuck to that colour in the event the forums change. Plus the colour you chose for the background is slightly off so I can see the background.

Not a criticism of your work, just helpful advice. PNG files are bigger than JPGs but you get better quality and transparency. ^_^
