Yeah, I can't sleep again. So I figured I could fuck around with some banners. You might like a few...
Xander..
Rage. This one captures you very well.
Hey Linc.. I made you one.
Tom, remember how I have always promised to make you a banner but yet i fail over and over again? Jackpot!
Black, you always help out others. You said you were feeling burnt out on your character. Maybe this will inspire you.
Hopefully they remove this cast on my arm this week. Then I can sleep again.

My two favorites are Rage's and Tom's both are super sick! Both capture each character perfectly, good job O and hopefully you do get that cast off soon.

The banners are sexy, Obby. I love the text used in mine, when you remove that cast go ahead and give yourself a self double arm pat on the back.

Nice banners. Xander's was kinda boring but the rest were sick. Rage's was awesome. I liked Lincoln's background on his. Winner though goes to Tom Roberts. That banner is sick.

course he didn't add mine up there in the list If there was a list, you would be number one, brotha! I actually think your banner came out really well.
As for the rest of the responses, thank you for the kind words. I am going to try to bust out a few more, my cast comes off tomorrow so I have time. After tomorrow it is Harley riding time!

Xander, Rage, and Lincoln's I like. Tom's looks kool, a different appearance for him. I honestly don't like Evan's. I just hate that effect, the emboss looking thing. And to be perfectly honest, I don't like MdA's at all. It's so basic, the cut of him is messy, and no fading was done to try and hide that. There's nothing spectacular about it, I don't love the picture of Maria, not for fitting him at least. And the text seems just there, nothing special. Just like it's there to be there. Sorry, but that's my honest opinion about it.

Sorry, but that's my honest opinion about it. You know it's funny, Evan's banner looked clean on my laptop. On my tower based PC i see how it is rough. As for MDA, pics of Brian Adams were actually harder to obtain than I anticipated. So yes, it was plain. Though I really like the lettering on it. I guess I am more of a plain guy. I am going to re-do MDA's though. I have some ideas, not that he has to use my next one if he is happy with what he has. And don't be sorry, opinions are how we learn to progress in the views of others. I respect that.

Yeah, I know exactly what you mean by Brian Adams pics are difficult to find. The pic of Adams I actually found googling Adams and the pictures were from a WWE.com news article probably when Adams passed. And the action pic is from the official website of Kronik (I didn't even know there was one.). Remember though, Google and PSDProtocol are your friends.

ok, try this one Brian Adams is a pain to get images for, lol. His Krush identity is easier.

I threw up another one there. It kinda freaks me out since he is dead in real life and all. Very ominous and kind of art deco.

I like the 2nd one. It is peaceful but like there is a storm brewing. (Ok, I may have read too far into it )

I'm still trying to figure out what it is, but I don't really love either. Maybe it's the size of the border, having it be that thick. Maybe that's what I dislike about it...
They're ok, but just don't seem like a lot spectacular to me. Maybe it's my preference of a smoother look to things. I kinda like the second one. Maybe a shrink of the border and making the cut black and white as well would make it blend better.

Yeah, I would not be opposed to anyone having a go at it. I had to ask Xplode to help me out with those because I just couldn't capture the intensity MDA deserves. So, sorry if I let ya down man. He is hard to work with for me.

I am just learning photoshop myself. So I take part of the blame. I will keep playing with it to see what I can come up with but if anyone else can hook MDA that would be awesome.

Well, I did make this one a while back. I'm not sure I love the text though. It looks slightly pixelly to me. I could probably edit the text, but the rest of the banner I like. I could make another attempt too, but like you said he's not easy to work with. Well, poser wise.
