Motsuko Live: It's supposed to look flat, because it's on lined paper, but having no focal is definitely not what I intended. I'll be combining all the comments I've gotten on this banner soon, so once I get off my lazy butt, I'll fix most of the things you pointed out. xD
And yes, that's a cigarette on his shoulder. xD In the actual image, he's flicking the cigarette towards the screen, so... yeah. xD;
I don't know how I can keep talking for ages. *shot* I just keep blabbering on and on, and I don't even know what I'm blabbering about half the time when I go back to look. xD;;;
Munna!: Damn, and I thought I had a good chance with the SoTW this time. D: I lovvve the stock, and the text is really cool as well. I personally like the top one, it seems a little more balanced to me... somehow. xD; Is that a whole stock, or two stocks put together? It looks like one to me, but I could be wrong. It's well composed, though it's kind of hard to focus on one spot since there are just so many flowers covering up the people that it makes me wonder where I'm supposed to put my eyes. ^^;;

Well, the Lelouch and Suzaku one is insanely bright, and it bugs me, so I made another one with a Zombie-Loan picture instead.
For better or worse? D:
I think this one's kind of bright too though... The stock was really hard to work with. x_o I mean, it looks awesome when it's big... but... it's a little too big for a banner, and I didn't have the heart to cut Chika out. ;;
