My first banner.

[Joser]

This is my "first!" banner. *PLEASE DON'T RIP*
I've only been doing artsy stuff on my computer for about 1-2 days so i'm definitely not very good. This is only my 3rd work, and my first try at a banner. Hope you like it.

I made everything myself except the logo, which I cut out by myself. I made the background design, and the text in Paint.NET.
Please tell me how to make it better

Thanks,
Jose

I don't really like the background.

The cut-out for Ohio State is bad. You use photoshop? Try the Magic Eraser Tool for that stuff. But looks good for the 1st I suppose.

Meh, good for first. Try using more filters like blurrs, brush strokes and try some blending and gradiant maps.

Sorry guys, but this is wayy old. I used Paint.NEt for this and now I have photoshop! My stuff will be much much better now!

Take my sig for example! MAde it myself
