well, for starters, get some type of theme and color scheme going there... you've got like funky grunge text and wavy swirly banners, and a white border with black and red background, red and white text and a tan render >_>; |

Yeah, well, I had some trouble placing the render in a good place 'cuz I was using boxart and the PLAYSTATION 2 logo kept getting in the way. Thanks for the feed though.
Yeah, well, I don't like doing that anymore. That's why I'm trying to get ideas on different text styles.
Yeah, teach me that. :@:@ :@@@ |

Well all I really did was take your original banner, duplicate it, blur it a little bit, set it on overlay at maybe 30-40 opacity, then do some light brushing, add a dot pattern, and then add a pixel stretch (use the column rectangle select, then go to edit>transform>scale and stretch out horiztonally) set on like overlay or something. i sharpened it a little as well. as for the text, all it is a purple color i grabbed from the banner in 'jey' rotated a little to the left with a 3px white border set on overlay and a black/white gradient set on overlay with lowered opacity. i also duplicated that again and placed it under the original text, and lowered the opacity for that double effect. |

The first one is overall, really good. The text is placed in a good enough spot to be noticeable, fitting, and not distracting. I'm not sure how much you actually did to the original picture, since it seems like a filmstrip screenshot (based on the large black bars on the top and bottom?), but the explosion thing on the left is nicely done, and the lighting is good as well. The second one is good, but the text is too bulgy. |

Alright, let's see. Richie: The first is really good. Really. The two faces in the background are well-placed, and the text is small but fitting. I like the distortion around the center render. The second I don't like so much. Just looks like a ton of textures slapped on at random, to be honest. The text is nice, though I don't like the huge stroke much. Good piece, but it seems a little... lazy? Tiltyu: I like the render and how you dealt with it; it's very easy on the eyes and just the right level of sharp-ness. The pattern on the left clashes a little, but not in a bad way. Overall, I can't say it stands out as your best (because even though it's good, it's not quite amazing), but it's a good icon of its own right. There's nothing I can see wrong with it. The second follows the same simple-but-nice pattern, and even though it's not complex, it looks good. I think the main text could've been a little better, and I can't put my finger on how exactly to go about it since the font style isn't bad. |

1. needs more sharp at the top and less opacity on the pattern on the left 2. text is good but that's about it.... the whole thing is pretty empty and the render doesn't really fit. if you want a more celshaded look i think you need there you need to mess with levels or a cutout filter. |

Richie: 1. Love it, text could be maybe 1 pt bigger, but the rest is perfect. 2. I just like that style. Tiltyu: 1. I really like this one. I can't really think of anything to say about it. It's perfect in my eyes. 2. I agree with Richie. Text is great, the rest is boring. :/ |

I actually like the text style on that avatar, though I can't really tell what the hell the rest of it is. =7 |

1pt bigger would ruin the effect of the font because century gothic is a very nitpicky type of font, it works well in some cases but horrible in others. =[ |
