Art My banner: New vs Old...

[Sol-Blade]

Okay, I was practicing my Photoshop skills and I came up with this new banner for me:

[B]Old:[/B]

Yeah I know, completely different theme. How do you guys think it looks?

My old one was really just me adding in the sunburst effect and solarizing it. Then adding plain text in. In this one, I first desaturized all color (Like you can tell...:rolleyes:) and then outlined all the Freq's. Added in my text, along with my name...and then I neoned out the picture, fixing color where necessary. For the few of you that actually cared what I just said, NO. I did not draw any of this myself, it is all from the game Amplitude. :D

Anyways, I really didn't want to throw my name all over it but last time I tried making one someone stole it and just pasted there name right on it.

That sort of...well... pissed me off. Sorry but I just draw these up for me. If you wanted one made, ask. Don't steal please.

I prefer the second one. The first one has a nice composition, but the color doesn't work as well for me.

the first banner is much better, meaning the neon one is better, in case that was confusing, lol. I really like the neon effects, it makes it look cooler, and it matches your avatar very well. The old one gets a 3/5, and your new one gets a 4/5.

Thanks for the feedback. Im still toying around with PS effects so I like to make interesting (If not confusing or amusing...:D) pictures. It's hard trying to understand some of the basic concepts even.

Thanks again!
