um the border color is bad. and filtirized he meant is in photoshop you can use filters to adjust your sigs or banners in your case.

The work itself if quite nice, actually, for a first attempt at the creative processes that go into the development of such a document. I suggest, however, selecting a simple border for the theme you have chosen, using few pixels in width.

Nice Job,

I must know what tool you used to do the border! :)

Its actually excellent for a first try, but maybe make the Text a little darker and/or clearer.

The border needs some work, but the rest isn't half bad :wink:

@AR_anduril: To make the border: I just made a new layer and used the polygon tool while holding shift to make the shape. Then I filled with a gradient, did the bevel and emboss and added a drop shadow--all under layer style. Pretty simple. I've had better success with the border on sigs, but it seemed to fail here....I'm gonna go work on a different border...probably just plain one...O well.

Excellent for a first photoshop graphic.

The border is bad, though. It's overused, doesn't look professional, etc.

Text is OK but it looks too round for some reason. Change the font, maybe. Also, it's a bit too light. Not that I can't read it, it just doesn't look too good if it's too light.

I love your color choice. Very slick and refreshing.

@Elem3nt: This is indeed my first photoshop BANNER. I got photoshop last night (or maybe the night before) and if you look at the banner, it's not very complex.

Thanks for the feedback everyone.
