Well first of all. Use better text, always save as .png and start out simple. Try fooling around with the filters and see what you can do.

Also you may wish to use less advanced programs to get some of the 'simple' things down, otherwise use the guides on the forums! :)

Also it needs a render (IF that is it then try going for objects rather than 'backdrops' or so you could call it. :) ) Also mess around with opaticy. ^_^

Personally I dont recommend messing with opacity too much, that's usually what beginners use to "blend" and assume that makes a wonderful graphic.

If anything, having a stock thats bold and clear, sharp and crisp (with no opacity change) works better and compliments the overall quality of your graphic well.

A good stock (picture/image to those of you who might be wondering) can make or break a graphic in my opinion.

Improve text, use a stock, don't use bevels.
