And you forgot to make the exclamation point into its own sentence. ;D

More of a token than a banner.

What? I was just offering constructive criticism of your rant! ;D
Oh, I like this. Did you do the boxes and background yourself? I like the colors and set-up and everything, and it's a nice choice of pictures. However, the text is still edgy, and the border's not right.

The first one: Love it love it love it love it! ;D You obviously put quite a bit of thought into this one. You discovered the power of brushes, didn't you? ;D Critique is below. 1.) The rose on the lower left corner looks like it should either be bold and red and moved to the right side, or blended in softly like the other things in the background. 2.) In case you didn't know, the picture has a slight purple tinge to it in all places except on the big picture of Gerry, and the blending of this coloring is a little off. I say pick a tone and stick with it, myself. 3.) The snapshot is a nice touch, but you tried to blend it in too much. Make it stand out some more (and if you leave the other pic black and white, make this one and the border black and white as well). 4.) Borders are always a very tricky thing, and this one's almost right - you need to make it smaller. Possibly have the black 1 px and the white 2 px. 5.) This is a bit more of a suggestion rather than critique, but I think you need to add some sort of dreamy glow or something to the picture. Duplicate layer, gaussian blur, lower opacity, perhaps. 6.) The text has a very nice effect, but yet again, it's too sharp and edgy! Second one: 1.) White background is waaay too plain. 2.) I think the lips should be red or pink, not black. Not all the girls that love him are gothic. 3.) It might possibly benefit from a very simple border and maybe even a little line of text in the corner.

First one: You've been practicing, eh? Looked up some tutorials or something? ;D I like the colors and stripe/pixel effect. However, the text effect looks odd with the slanted text over the horizontal/vertical lines of the pixels. Also, you know what I'm going to say about the border - it's too big! You're covering parts of his face with it! Second one: The first picture cuts off the top of his head, and it looks odd; I think you should move the first two pics down the same amount so each one is spaced fairly the same. The word "wanted" is more bold in some ways than his name, so maybe you could find a way to tone it down. Did you make that background yourself? It's pretty nice, except I don't quite understand the numbers part. Oh, and nice font. And you know what I'm going to say about the border. Third one: It's very bright, and it's not in a good way. I think it would look better if it were black and white or all one tone. The background's just a tad plain, but that may be because the text position is off a little (I'm not quite sure what the suitable place for it would be). And as usual, the border. Fourth one: The background just looks like you ran a cloud filter. The text is very nice, but I think you should do a mild bevel on it. The pics are nice, but the borders don't seem to fit the grunge theme.

The numbers in the second one are like his prison number. *nods* Thanks for all this. As I say, I'll never be on such a run again, so if you would please specify a fave banner out of the lot from yesterday?

My favorite has to be either the kiss one, or the one with the race pixel look. ;D Nice!
