It looks good to me, it has depth, I can't think of anything bad to say about it.

I can see what you were trying to accomplish with the rainbow effect, but you didn't pull it off very well. The background is way too bright, and overpowers the focal. Also, you probably shouldn't of made the Exploud so transparent.


C+CC on my newest sig? It's that cool crocodile Pokémon from Generation 5 of which I do not know the name of, with it's two pre-evolutions peering over the top. (:

Well, it's not bad, I really like it but the main problem I have it's too plain. The smudge effect is great, I think you pulled it off, I get the feeling that some smoke thing is rising behind the pokemon. Try making it explosive, it'd look wicked.

Well, since I still have the link crit this:

I like what you did with the render, or lack thereof. It looks good kept simple like that, and goes with the rest of the banner. I feel like I'm distracted by what's going on in the right corner though; I think that should be more plain. A border would probably help too.

Again, still haven't been making banners on a regular basis, but eh. Here's one I made for a Mario Kart forum.


I think it turned out pretty well, however the text bothers me... bleh. Maybe I should have just not put any in.

Just a small comment, I think the text looks pretty good, it fits well and the effect is nice. It helps create a really nice flow, in my opinion. It could easily work without text but to me, it doesn't look bad in the slightest.

Next person just comment on Brodericks.

[Broderick]

Made another one. xD No banner above mine, so whatevs...
I like this one, however plain it may be. It's dark on purpose. I played around with a light source before saving, but it just looked out of place, and like sh*t.

I've never been super-keen on sprite banners, just because the sprites will always stick out no matter what you do, but holy crap that background is really cool. Not sure what you did to make it, but I like it a lot.

Some more Black Rock Shooter banners of questionable quality from me. Also, that black bar in the upper left is actually one of her pigtails, hence why it's not pretty and straight like a black bar ought to be.

[Velocity]

Oooh, stunning~! The creepy effect is all like IM A AWESOME LIKE ME OR DIE, and the text is quite visually striking. I also like the red with the blue.

Comments on my new avie? Handmade by me, using GIMP! (Yes, the text is small. It says Fritz)

[Linchy]

Well, it's really...basic. I don't see a lot of changes. Only thing I can point out is to make the text bolder because I had to squint to see it.

[Velocity]

I wanted to bold it, but I couldn't. Stupid GIMP wouldn't let me. And I guess this may be the wrong thread for that type of art, as it was just my drawing - not a proper edit.

I like it. I've got some self-criticism, but I'll wait to see what other people say before posting.

I love the background effects, though the render seems a little odd. It looks like too much of it is shaded.

Yeah, direction.. Flow. There is none, or it's wonky. There's not enough to make it pop, or catch the eye. If the little sparkle above the render was like that all the way around it'd look much better There is such thing as too little, just as there is too much. You're a pro graphic artist, I'm sure you see it. But that's just what I think.



C+CC, naow plz. Kthx.

I like it, but I don't quite understand why Ken is black and white in some parts and normal in some parts?





These are my first banners in about half of a year. C+CC please?

The first one looks too monosaturated and dark. The swirls obscure the Arcanine too much.

The second one is better, but the white to the far left bothers me. It looks like the background stops at the Raichu.

I'm not really "showcasing" anything in my forum sig or avatar, it's simple, my avatar is my favorite Pokémon, Sharpedo, and my sig is just general indo, which is true info!
