Hey all - had a slow night tonight and was working through Photoshop a little. Here is the finished project... went with a Dan White sig just because. I had an idea with the "Dragon" theme. Feedback is wanted!

That is ace. How long have you been doing graphics?
Only thing I'd say is the tip of the dragon behind the sunglasses Booker is a little distracting looking. If you could fade that out so the dragon and Booker man are separate, it'd look perfect to me.

Big fan of the font. I don't use PS but I have the hardest time fitting font with the GFX and that looks pretty fitting. I like the dragon for that. Maybe a bit big but it's very good work.

I've always been interested in graphic design but I've never really had the tools to learn. Now that I do - I'm trying to teach myself through sigs/PPV graphics. Truthfully, probably two months.

And I agree about the tail. It's frustrating me... TJ, HALP!

The dragon is facing the wrong way to be a Welsh Dragon!
It's excellent apart from that minor flaw. I clicked on this to give feedback anyway but it's class apart from that minor (but admittedly not-so-minor if you're as patriotic as me) detail!

And I agree about the tail. It's frustrating me... TJ, HALP! Isn't a just case of increasing the opacity of the layer containing the Booker T image, or altering the order of the layers so that the dragon layer is behind the Booker T image layers (and upping the opacity of Booker T)? Other than the error Dan pointed out, it's a nice banner. I'm not a big fan of those wood texture backgrounds, but that may be a matter of personal taste. I would have tried to create a 'flag rustling in the wind' type texture for the background (if it can done). It ties in with the Welsh dragon (which is part of the national flag of Wales), and might animate the image more.

My advice,
Too big.
Start small and work up. Imagine what that would look like on a 360x140
It would actually look pretty swank.
And for those saying that the dragon is the wrong way? fuck that. How many black booker T's do you know in wales?
