Fantasia Posted February 4, 2012 Posted February 4, 2012 (edited) Not bad, Garnira. It's nice to see more people posting graphic art here.The text looks nice with the image you used. You chose a good font and color.Unfortunately, the banner as a whole seems rather low quality. Did you use Paint to make this? If you like making banners, look up GIMP. It's a free, safe image manipulation program. It does much, much more than Paint can, if you take some time to learn it.Also, try saving the image as a PNG file instead of a JPG next time. PNG images are much higher quality.It looks like you have an eye for making good banners. I would like to see more from you in the future. Edited February 4, 2012 by Fantasia Quote

Toatapio Nuva Posted February 4, 2012 Posted February 4, 2012 I don't find this low quality at all, though I'm no expert on artwork. But I like it. It really gives me the 2004-Bionicle-feeling. Great job! Quote My BZPRPG profiles - Viima, Lai Lai Kirgan, Jarkale, Hile, Tuli + Kavala, Khervos, Thira
Sumiki Posted February 4, 2012 Posted February 4, 2012 I really like that font - that's Blade II, right? Usually people use some sort of Soviet-style font, but I think it fits.The text seems kind of bland, though ... if you could do something to spice it up a bit, that would be nice. Some sort of shadow or something, at least. Quote avatar by Lady Kopaka

Must have messed up when i re-sized the image. Quote "Copy and paste me into your sig! The shadows command you!" ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)#tumaislove,tumaislife
