a friend asked me to make a banner for her featuring Incubus (our favorite band) and i did, but i feel it's missing something.

thoughts/critiques/ideas/suggestions, please.



so i finally got around to fixing this... still not too happy about it but my friend loved it, so here it is:

Uhm, IMO, it just looks too simple.
I'd play around with the background.

I like the polaroids, though.

The images seem a bit blurry. Maybe sharpen those up a bit. The grungy lines seem a little cliche to me. I like it, though, but it is a bit simple.

Yes, she realizes this.



Hmmmmmm. Possibly add another picture? A brush maybe?

The way you did the pictures is cool. but you should do something to make it more readable and maybe move the words to another place... it seems out of balance?

Anything with Brandon Boyd and Mike Einziger is perfect.

Hmm...the font is kind of ugly and the pictures could be sharper.
Try some orbs of light or decorative brushes over/around the polaroids.
Also play around with textures for the background.

It doesn't look bad though. I kind of like it. _smile.gif

thank you all for the feedback, i really appreciate it! happy.gif

i'm not too big on the font either... so i'll be changing that. & i will be sure to sharpen up the pics a bit as well.
personally, i like simple but this just seems too simple, so i will be adding another picture and maybe some color effects of some sort... shrug.gif

laugh.gif i learned how to do that by mistake... my method is kind of weird, so i suggest either of the following:
Tutorial #1 or Tutorial #2
