Ok, from the other topic, I made the assumption that Tru7h wanted a banner for Byte... So here it is.... I also saved it as the highest quality possible... I can change that if you want... Or if you want something on the banner fixed, just let me know.

also, I made the banner 900x90.... I don't know why the forums are resizing it...

That's pretty sweet, looks like we'll have to put on another Banner Design Contest!

About the resizing, you could try uploading it to an image hosting site or just emailing the original file to spartandominion@gmail.com.

Keep up the great work!

Indeed, the renders in the second version are much better.

Do you guys like that Outer Glow effect on the renders? It makes them appear cut out smoother.

I actually don't really like them. Here's the thing, now that you've got making backgrounds down, you should start working on finding the right renders and blending them into the background. Photoshop's filter and blending options are fantastic, so make the most of them.

I'm not trying to criticize, just pass on some advice.

Over in your layer window, you'll see a scroll down box that probably says "Normal." Click through the other options and you'll see what I mean. There's also a drop down menu up top titled Filter, which has a ton of great effects.
