I have used photoshop elements and i actually like gimp better.
I made these yesterday in gimp.
I think im going to start making stuff bigger, cause I can always resize it smaller.
And im want to find ways for stuff to be better qauilty.

1. I agree it's simple but I like it. Although if I were to use it as a background, it wouldn't repeat well because of the darkness on the corners. But I still like it.
2. It's a bit plain, imo. Just some swirls. Maybe it'll look better when you add more like you intend to.
3. It cute. I like it a lot. But I think you could add more.
4. I like the idea you had going on (it reminds me of the Lion King) but yes it is a bit typical. Just some brushes & stuff. But I like what you have going on.

Its not supposed to be a background.
Its just a button.
Ill just put "submit" on it and put it at the bottom of forms.
