    Omigawwdd... Those colors on the first one look so cool 8D

    Yeah, you don't need to improve. XD They're like, perfect. >:

    I wish you take requests >:
     
    :O They dont get any better than that :O

    My favorite in this showcase is four...
    I really like your style kinda like how it's well made, it's perfect really in my opinion.

    The text on 1,5 and the others is well placed and made[/placed?] and I just like all of it, if I had to make any flaws which is kinda hard for me to spot in this bunch, gosh I just don't know what's bad here, sorry. I guess I wish I could see more borders like 9's on 5's I guess.

    All in all, some of the best banners I've seen. These are just perfect.

    Incredible and Perfect showcase ;D If you had a shop, i'd be there! O.O

    Hey Akari, why don't you put your Ocean Rider, entry for the SOTW, up there? As I thought that was quite excellent ;D

    Once again, great showcase of amazing talent ;D
     
    I LOVE THEM <3 Akari, you are very, very talented! Banners 4 and 6 are my favorite. They look great and the text goes well with them.

    Excellent work, keep it up :D!
     
    I like the Zero one. ^^ Nice n' red.
     
    I just died a little inside. I LOVE 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, and 10. Those really stuck out to me.

    You're awesome, I just wanna ask you what program are you using?
     
    You know, it's seeing art like this that really makes me want to get into graphic design. The one that stuck out most to me was number 9, mainly because you barely see any green banners on this forum and the colors you chose are amazing. You should open a shop.
     
    OMG IT'S A LULU BANNER!!!!!!!! >D

    Yesh Akari-chan, your banners rock, and I mean seriously, they ROCK (Like the Haruhi one). :3

    I love to see more Lulu sexiness banners in the future! =D
     
    Nice banners, good job

    A couple can use some better blending but overal nice
     
    2, 4, 5, 6, and 9, are my favorites!! I'm just starting out, so... I suck at that whole tell you how to improve thing. I wish I could make banners like yours!!!
     
    Wow. So many replies. XD

    But thanks for the comments everyone. :D

    I was going to open a shop, but I don't really have the time right now, so I might later. :x

    BeachBoy; I was going to put the SOTW banner but I guess I'll save that for my next showcase.

    Chikara; I use photoshop. :3

    Hazuki; I have plenty more Lulu banners then that one. <3

    Ahh so there's going to be another showcase ey? Excellent! Can't wait to see those superb creations ;D

    Well if you ever do open a shop (I call first request!)

    Well Like I said, perfection in this show case in my eyes, keep up the great work, but yeah I really could never sot a place to improve here, amybe text for the lulu banner? O.o
     
    Yeah I like you use of grudge brushes, you blend them well and they look very nice
     
    Wow, your pretty good now BUT NOT AS GOOD AS ME

    I remember that Lulu banner xP, and you have come a long way from it. textures, gradient maps, just everything you learnt to do has improved your banners greatly. Your Brushing is probably the best i have ever seen, your better with your brushes than alot of people. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK XD.
     
    Ah, this is a very nice gallery ^^

    The effects on most of them are nice, and they're appealing to look at. Very nice usage of brushes as well. Work on colours, though. Some of them are looking a bit too bright. I do like how you can use scan lines so easily, and make it work well with the banners~
