Oooh, good job! I don't think I was around when you had a claim up, so yeah. But those are very nice.

Your stuff is pretty good! I'd say keep practicing and working at it. What program do you use?

Hm...I've never heard of that. The one I use that's pretty good is GIMP, which you can download for free. It's really nice.
I have to say my favorites of yours are the "I wish I was back in the army" and the Arwen ones.

It's pretty old. I could never figure out GIMP....so I went back to photosuite... I love I wish I was back in the army! The Arwen one's were done a couple of weeks ago...

Commets are welcome you know. I can't get better without comments....
For Dark's "Into the West" banner contest:
a different version...I couldn't decide which was better....
For Turwaithiel Swann's Gimli banner contest:
^didn't turn out as well as I'd hoped...
and a different version:
For Larael's deleted scenes contest:
and a emmy rossum colorization. please look and comment on this at least. i need a redhead for a character of mine and emmy's perfect...aside from the fact that her hair is dark. Is this a convincing redhead?

Your getting even better, Damson! I noticed you save your stuff in JPG, if you save them in PNG they will come out clearer. JPG tends to make them choppy sometimes, I had that problem once. But anyways, very good. Especially with the new banners! Nice colorizations as well.

The first one isn't showing. But the avatars are really good.

Great colorizations! The Emmy one does look very much like a redhead, though the area right where her hair meets her scalp is slightly off. But overall it's great. I love the first "Into the West" banner, the first Gimli banner, and the deleted scene one. I definitely see improvement! Keep it up!

You're off to a good start.
What I'd say is, maybe try experimenting with colors. Right now, the colors on your banners are rather simple, but if you play around, it might make them more interesting.
The other thing is, sometimes your text takes away from the images.
Quote: See, it's kind of all over the place. It'll look better if you stick it in one smaller area instead of across the whole banner. Quote:
That one is much better.
Lastly, some of your graphics are... very sharpened. Sometimes it's nice to have them a bit blurrier too.
I do have some positive criticism too.  Your blending is very good.  It's mostly the effects that you need to keep practicing.
I've never heard of Photosuite, otherwise I'd probably try and be a bit more specific with some tips.
