That banner is AWESOME. I would love to see more banners from you similar to that.

All your work is amazing. :)

Ooooooooh, Narnia. Edmund. :eyeroll: Much love.

Mind a few tips from an old geezer? :P
Image
I would probably make the "I know.." bit smaller and the sorted larger. As I believe you want the "sorted" to stand out, that would help a lot.
Image
I like this one. :) The glowish bit there gives it an interesting feel.

And, just in general, you ought to try experimenting with layers of color and patterns. :yes: They're lots of fun and can add a lot of interest to the banner.

Thanks for the tips, Nurr! :hug:

It's just, I have no idea what textures are or anything like that. I don't know how to do anything like that. :blush:

Oh, they're pretty easy to figure out. You're still using GIMP right? There should be a dialog box called "patterns". They're similar to textures, in my mind. If you have a new layer open in your image, you can fill it with a pattern. Then you set that on whatever layer mode you want, and it adds...well, texture! You can also find made textures at websites such as here and here.

:surprise: Wow! Those are awesome! The Aragorn/Arwen ones are so pretty! And wow. "Archers" "Losing Hope" and "sneak attack" are AMAZING. You're getting so good! The only other comment I have is on the "protecting you" one. I think I'd put the text all together, probably smaller on the right side. But that may just be my preference.

:drool: I'm not just being loyal, I'm being totally and completely awed. I can't believe you just started a little while ago! Because those Narnia ones are LOVE. Total and complete win and love.

^ditto! I'm in total agreement with Nurr here! I think I've told you before, but Tur you are really, really getting SO good! :drool: I am so in love with some of those Narnia ones (the Lucy the Valiant, Archers, Losing hope... oh ALL of them are wonderful! :P)... and the other stuff is great too! Keep it up, dear! *thumbsup* oh, btw, I think I am officially a Tur graphics fan. :teehee:

and would you mind if at some point in the future I used one of the Narnia ones? *puppy-eyes*

Your stuff is getting so good Tur. I wish I could get my stuff half as good as yours.
