personally honest its a great first attempt. my feedback... tone down the background, its contrasting too much with the building line, and the word Tohea. The eyes go straight to the background, expceially to the giant "lights" (the dots). The word Tohea, make it...er...bolder? I have that same font on my computer, in fact i used it in the first banner, and its a very very difficult font to use if not done right. You gotta add more bulk to it. Try using a stroke, and a shadow to bring it out more. Also, kern it. The spaces between each letter shouldnt be like that. you can find the kerning application in the character pallette. Its the one with the two AA and the arrow under it. OR, you can hold ALT and tap the left arrows to make each character closer the the other one. However, if you do it that way, make sure you do it from the O, over. the bottom text...line it up straight and leave them one color...at least the first two anyways. Maybe a tad bigger... I know this may seem harsh...but I really do like it as a first one...though it wouldnt match the skin...either way i still like it. Im just tellin ya what i see...and would change...assuming you used photoshop... |

I think that only the admin/mods should be in the banner. ): |

Croe, if you're talking about my banner, then I'd have to say that there weren't enough staff with sprites for me to only do staff. It was hard enough just getting sprites from active members. I had to resort to new people. :/![]() Here it is. Finished, completed, etc. Any feedback? |

Zer0, I actually really appreciate that feedback, it was specific and useful. Those were all things I debated but I decided to leave it as it was for the first try... I'll make a few changes and then upload the updated version to see if that's any better. I have Ideas (tm) on how to make it even better than it already was, and will be taking your advice. {And yes, I used photoshop. <3 photoshop... <3 CS2... } |

![]() Heres my entry, I tryed to make it based mostly on the things that are tohea, If you think about the trainer sprite one, thats going to grow old in time and its more temporary due to maybe the people there wont be there any more in a around 5 months time. If you want changes done ask me here and Ill try to make it even better. |

Not bad Neil, but the different quality of the source images contrasts to the point of distraction. Because they're different styles - the one is so OBVIOUSLY hand drawn, it detracts from the appeal of the image as a whole because they don't match. You could try to make the other image look like a drawing... or you could find other images to use. ...personally, I'd go with B, but it's your banner. |

So far, Neils is actually the coolest (that chick on the right is awesome), but Jean's still pwns it, partly due to the fact that the drawing one the left detracts from the entire part, since it looks so unprofessional. |

No matter neil's is cool compared to some of the others. Even if the two side's dont contrast thats what a site is sometimes not always one and sometimes can clash. |
