You don't mind do you?

okay I made this for a friend of mines site header. Just so you don't confused with the 'by Aryn' bit on it, My name is Aryn XD

I may have gone a little bit brush crazy with it, but that's okay, I just downloaded a new brush set that I liked XD

No worries on the over use of brushes I like it. i know that style was in a while back and I wish it would come back, you know the use of a lot of brushes instead of just one or none at all or that annoying blur look going around. In any case whether you did it on purpose or because you liked it I think it looks good. For a banner it always seems more appropriate too.

Font: I like the font, but the main title I can't read it or maybe it's a word spelling I'm not use to either way I can't make out what it says. Just the last couple of letters though. The bottom font I can read fine, but the font type lost the intensity for me unlike the main type which is bold and wild, the sub text isn't. Lastly I see your sig, but I can't really read it, in fact I wouldn't have known what it said if you didn't point it out. Also if this is a banner then where you chose to put your name is slightly cumbersome and may take away from the image. Obviously you don't want people to easily remove your name so maybe use it more as a water mark and relocate it so it's not right on top of the main text.

Images: I like the wolf that is more foward I don't like the faded one. Both of the wolves are very close to one another and that draws the focus of the image to one side. I guess it depends on where you want the focus, but I think generally you want people to look at the whole image and not get stuck on one side or the other.


Anyways hope that helped not sure if I really gave you any advice just nit picked. I have a habit of doing that ;D sorrs if I did lol. Oh yeah I luff the color scheme.

I myself was sort of worried about the font, but the owner of the site said it was good, so I kept it. See you can't really read the 'thine' part of it because Cocaine sans takes awhile to figureout XD And the stuff at the bottom, I agree, but I actually think that was born of laziness because I was too lazyto go download a knew one, I just thought the brashy texture would fit somewhat with the brushes I used.

And now that you put it in perspective, I could have put the test on the right side of the image to help draw focus aswell.

Thanks, I think your critique was really helpful ^.^

Ha yeah that happens to me. If I'm working on a picture then I'll just force a font to work instead of going to look for one. ;D

Anyways glad it helped ^^
