There pretty good, but very plain. I have a lil' guide to help you:

1) Start off with a normal 2 color gradient (Or the Default ones). Dont just use a background picture!

2) make a new transparent layer and, Go to www.planetrenders.net and search "Fractal Renders".

3) You will find the most PWNSM pics ever. Trust me.

4) Paste it on, and use the magic wand tool to drag off the black or white parts around the image.

5) Alter the opacity on the "Layers" window, to your delight.

6) Merge the layer down. Now make a new layer. Instead of pasting a plain ol' sprite, Search for the Sugimori image of the sprite. Past it on, and use the Magic wand to take off all of the black or white around the render. Alter the opacity if you want.

7) On the main "Gimp" window, go to "Xtns> Script Fu> Logos> CHOOSE A TEXT FORM (Comic book is Cool)

8) Once you have it set up (Font, color, size) the window will pop up. Merge down all the layers of the text.

9) make a new layer, and paste it on. Use the magic wand to drag off the black or white.

10) Alter the opacity if you want.

11) Go to PlanetRenders, and search "C4D". Choose the one you like. (The chrome bursts are cool.)

12) Make a new layer. Paste it over the entire banner. Use the magic want to take off any extras. Make the opacity QUITE low. Around 10-50%.

13) Save as .png.

To add and contrast to this: Fractial renders can be used well with lipping and layer masking, but they mostly get in the way. C4D's are the same way but effective, try not to use them as much, or people will call you a "*****" on other sites.

everything he pointed out was from gimp...I don't use free programs >_>; Pirating ftw.

How do you pirate programs? PM me with the answer, cause that could be useful...:silenced:
