    This thread doesn't belong in the main Art Gallery. All threads pertaining to sig banners/avatars etc belong in the Graphics & Photography subforum. Please read forum descriptions carefully before posting again.

    Sorry bout that, the Art Gallery forum is so confusing.
     
    I think these need a bit of work. Seeing as they're somewhat similar, I'll just go over them together.

    Firstly, never save images as JPG. Save them as PNG to prevent the loss of quality. Secondly, I think the choice of font is quite poor. I don't usually use script fonts like that, since they usually end up breaking a banner rather than making it look better, except in some cases. In this case, I think the script font is a no no, since it's hard to read and it doesn't go with the rest of the banner.

    I am guessing you used Paint for these banners, no? Since the whites in the eyes of the Pidgey are gone, I kind of assumed that. If not, then sorry.

    I don't really know what else to suggest since I don't know what program you used. What program do you use to make these? I think I can help out more if I knew.
     
    Shiranui, Since i dont have photoshop i have to use paint cause its my only other option.
     
    Oh, I see... Well, I guess these are pretty good for Paint banners. I don't know what to suggest for backgrounds, though... But basically, save them as PNG, experiment with different fonts and font colours, see which one looks best, and maybe add a one pixel border around the banner.
     
    Use GIMP. It's what I use. It's not a bad program, but what do you expect for free?
    Anyway, That isn't bad for Paint. =\ 5/10 for effort.
