http://sixpop.com/files/58/simpleprint.png I'm totally confused as to what to do. I think I'm doing something right, then it turns out crappy (see above). lmao. |

Definitely make your text drop shadow smaller and lower the opacity. The glossing on the banner looks strange o_O I dunno how to fix that without changing the whole thing. |

There's like that weird dark thing that looks like the opposite of glossing. I assumed that's what you were trying to do xD |

Layer Effects called it Satin, though I don't believe that either. lol. |

Oooh satin right lol Make it smaller, reduce the size or something. It's too strong. I suggest using another font for the banner and reduce the size of the drop shadow. Also, add some gloss to the logo bit, just get out the rectangular marquee tool and fill it with white and lower the opacity until it looks nice. Do you use gimp or ps? |

It needs a lot of more depth. It just looks like it's two colored rectangles and slapped text right now. I'm not sure what you're using on this, and i'd like to help you if you started using an actual designing program - and not GIMP. |

Oracle: Thanks, will try that out. Joe: 'Tis what I'm doing. Using gimp btw. Tom: Wow. Really? That's kinda rude. I would use PS if I could, but I can't. |

Using GIMP is fine, you can quite easily create graphics that look like Photoshop, just takes practice. |

How is that ... rude. I was actually legitimately considering helping you a lot on this to help you improve, I mean, I don't even see much on your print to comment on. You need a new selection of colors, and you need to centralize the banner text. There really isn't anything else to comment on. Learn to take criticism otherwise you'll never become a designer. @Sith: Sure, you may be right - but I could help him since I use Photoshop - is what I mean. |

I was referring to the "if you started using an actual designing program - and not GIMP." as being rude. If I could use PS, I would in a heart beat, but it takes forever to even fill in a solid color. If you want to help, I'll gladly accept your help (assuming you know gimp, that is). |

What I've tried is the version Joe has that requires no installation. CS4, I believe. Just tried earlier today again, thinking this new computer would be better, but nooope. I'm not that lucky. |
