cfioncn 800 Report post Posted June 5, 2006 Hmm...site's a bit slow, try ImageShack. For a banner, it's a bit small, but the idea is sound ....I like the pattern on the former better (the one on the second is a bit bland), though it's a bit strong on the right side and hard to see the picture. Also, make the text a bit more readable maybe by increasing the size or adding a stroke or something similar. If you decide to make it bigger, just a picture, pattern, and text might be a bit boring (unless you're going for a very simple look) so you MAY want some other stuff in there.

Picatta 138 Report post Posted June 5, 2006 Yeah, I just downloaded GIMP and was using it, still trying to get the handle on it. Before I did everything in MSpaint. Also, my site is slow because it hosts a proxy :/ too many users at once. That and the server runs Windows ME on a 1 meg upstream speed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
D_Marx 604 Report post Posted June 5, 2006 I liked the first one, awesome photoshop with the lines going around the eye. The second one takes away from the main focus of the image. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] D_Marx Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
