You have a great grasp on placement! So you have a good eye, which is pretty much half the battle. I really like the one in your sig and the Sharon Del Adel one. The blending on both of those works really well!

I'd practice on playing around more with fonts. You'd be amazed at what a plain font can do, when you try new ways to use it. :lol:

Great stuff for a beginner, definitely! I really like the Sharon del Adel one, too -- it looks very good!

I agree with the fonts idea from Nurr! :) And I am excited to see what else you create!

Thanks Nurr! The Sharon one took me a while to get the blending right but a pleasing result :-D Thank you for the tip.

The animations are very good! And your blending on the two Evenstar banners, Beren & Luthien, Cloud Strife and the Promise one are really good. :)
