Cool stuff!
I like your banners for Pokemon Epiphany a lot. I think some of your images need to be fixed up as you can see the sort of white outline around it in the originals which looks a bit choppy.

Thank you ^^
Yea, Raikazu told me the same thing.
Told me I should smudge the edges with a soft brush.
Tried it, and it looks nice. ^^

Yeah well I think that a banner looks kinda ruined if it has that horrible white line around all your images....

 

[Zebra Thunderhead]

To fix that, just go to Layer > Matting > Remove White Matte. That will take care of the white outline for you.

Or you go to Layer>Matting>Defringe.
You then select about 1-3 pixels and it will remove that much off the edge of the image.

I don't know where matting/defringe is on GIMP =/
Its not under layer.

I just got Photoshop CS3 Today, and this was the first thing I made.
I still need to learn how to use it. :o

I probably blurred it too much and the white streaks, pen tool, look.. eh.

This was a request on another forum.
The Stock was a bad one, imo, but I decided to make it anyways.

This was made just like most of my graphics.
C4D, Space Stock, Gradient Maps.
I did some brushing in this one though, cloud brushes.

Mukkamoto request me to make a Wolverine banner for him. I started out not liking the render he wanted me to use but when I finished I started to like it. I think I should of blended the left side a little better.

Umbreon requested this at "Shadow's Epic Graphix Squad" thread. I would of did the border one or two pixels smaller but if I read correctly, he wanted a thick-er border.

I can see a lot of improvement here. Seeing as you type what program used you have upgraded?

30.

Would be nice if there was colour to it.​

31.

Nice colouring, though something seems to be missing on the left.
Avatar cropping needs better composition. Try to see if there would be another place that it could've been cropped for a more appealing image.​

 

[Postman]

Yea, I recently got CS3 and still learning how to do everything on it. I still use GIMP for some stuff.

I edited this one a little bit and made it colored, added it to 30.

I don't know what I should add on the left side so.. do you think centering it would look better?
I'll look for a better avatar crop.

 

[.Vaporeon]

I love 16 <3 =D Nice Render,colours and text. I also like 1,the colours and renders also look good. Nice graphics you have there Posty..

[Azonic]

The text killed this one. It's white and blank tone stands out from the more yellow/brown tone of the banner. I'd set the text to Overlay and find a suitable place for it, or you can put the text under a Colorize layer. :x Pretty nice, otherwise~

 

[Xenart]

Real nice banners. Those PE ones should be used for new themes.
