Spoiler:
So which do you like more?
I like the second one better, It shoes more of the colour and it makes it look more interesting. But I have to say, I really HATE the dimensions, tags arn't suppost to pass more then 500-400 atleast =\
Try making smaller ones...

I have to say, you're really improving. :) You're starting to get better at the effects and making the renders more stand out. I love the latest one you did. :3
Here's a fact: GIMP = PS
I like how you blamed your improvement on Photoshop.
Photoshop has hardly any extra features than GIMP that are going to help you make tags better, it's pure logic.
Don't bother arguing, I have used both programs and I prefer GIMP, all the tags in my latest showcase were made on GIMP. Hope I don't sound harsh on this but it really does annoy me when people do that, GIMP is one of the best freeware you an download on the internet.

Even though I agree with you, responses like this belong in VM/PMs. Please refrain from posting in Angela's gallery unless directly addressing her graphics.

Here is a comment you might not take as good critisizim at first, but hopefully will make you improve later. Your tags are big. So big in fact you have ALLLLLLL the room you wan't to cram in whatever neato effects you want and still see the focal, and have "flow" (wtf why does everyone obsess over flow in this forum).
I think by forcing yourself to make a tag with much smaller proportions, you'll be teaching yourself how to make a aesthetically pleasing tag without cramming a load of neato cazito wowie kazamo effects into it. You'll quickly find that the way you've been making tags is a way that you haven't had to worry about effect placement. This is because you have all the room you need in something like a 500x240 banner.
So yea here are a few examples of what I'm talking about:
Un-needed or misplaced effects on either side of the tag. The biggest example is the clipping mask on the splatter on the right hand side of the tag. I hope you notice that it is out of place. Kinda just floating around out there, hanging out. But the point is I'm sure you made the clipping mask because as a effect by itself you think it's pretty cool, but you have to remember to look at it in conjunction with the whole tag. You'll quickly find that it is out of place, or not needed at all!
So thats it.
P.S. Why do you like making clipping masks of the focal then dragging it to the far off boundaries of the image?
I'm sure most people will agree with me when I say that effect looks weird just fyi.

- Think about effect placement
- Try making a tag with smaller boundries
- Have fun

Thank you for the CC... :D
Also to answer your question.. I was following a tut and it was done like that in the tut... :)
But the banner showed in the tut was much smaller and better .looking then that one... :)
Anyway here are 3 new banners.. :)

The first banner I like it because it's so colorful. :3 However, it's just me, but I don't like the placement of that lightning. Second banner one thing I didn't like is the left side is too dark. Perhaps make it lighter? Third banner I like the effects and what you did with the font. :)
The first banner I love the quality of the render. The backgrounds you did the effects well, but it looks very blurred. The second one though I think you could have done better with the render, mostly make it look less stretchy.

Just to let you know I think this tag shows huge potential. You narrowed the boundaries, and managed to use effects that work well with the stock (for the most part, a lil bit of floating head, and some parts seem over blurred and messy).
Well done, expand on the mind set you had when you made that tag.
