[Art] Triple BG (Channel Banner)

Full Banner (TV size)



So I was working on this for about a few hours taking some traits from our old banner for this new one, and I am somewhat impressed at what I came up with. What does everyone else think. Any thing I should add/take away? Post Below.

If you want to see it properly cropped you can head to my channel, Ill be posting a cropped version below later on but right now I'm currently doing other things.

Used: Pixlr.com (Cause im poor)

I like the idea, but around the title of your channel under the logo its cut off at the G and looks bad

the font isnt great, it doesnt really fit with what youre going for here. It also overlaps on everything and cuts off like on the title said above.

ALL of the linework is sloppy, it overlaps and on some corners it doesnt reach all the way on the other side.

work on making all of these things cleaner. Id also learn a different program, if you dont want to torrent you can always get something free like Gimp 2.8.
well for starters, read what u write down...

it says "subscrube"

that "vvvv" thing doesn't look very professional either

this doesn't look ok, at least perfect the corners when making lineart

also what's that "spirit" thing at the bottom? i assume u used a free image for that background

if software is ur issue, there is a ton of free art/image manipulation software out there that's better than what ur using right now, see this for some examples

and like mzebra said, use a font that doesn't look very similar to comic sans
It is a free image background. I do have Gimp, however I use Pixlr because its Convenient for me and Its what i have always used for my Art related things. The team is working on getting me my own Drawing Tablet so That could be happening eventually. Ill work on the Line Drawings, The fact that they do that does annoy me but I wanted to finish my idea off before I made any hard edits.

The Font I believe (Assuming you mean only the Title font.) Is something... Lol What would you suggest I Use instead.

font is lame and pixellated as mentioned above, "4 guys" and "100s of games" could do with an outer glow or drop shadow so it's more readable

the colours on the logo clash, i'd recommend the requests board for something more professional

it's also possible that there's too much focus on the background, so you could darken or lighten the whole thing a bit

what's the "vvvv" for? i assume it's some sort of arrows but what is it pointing at?

some stuff to work on but a good start. good luck

edit: just saw your last post

2 good websites for free fonts

pixlr isn't the most reliable for editing, i'm sure you can find a free trial of photoshop or something or download a free version such as CS2. gimp should also be fine

Hmm, dont know about this one.
It looks very busy, my eyes dont know where to look.
The fonts are atrocious, look really unprofessional.
But with a bit of work this can look really nice. I can try and remake this on photoshop, young one. If you would provide me with the background image.

Sure I would Love that. Ill send it to you in a sec. I had redone it again- (From scratch cause i realized I didnt save the Editable wip that allowed me to switch what Game previews were visable), And I tried to fix the fonts and line art. Ill post it here in a second.

Thing

Hello. You have too much junk everywhere. Don't need to tell people to subscribe/follow, or when you will be posting videos. Try to make the banner as simple as possible. You may need to see something else other than the galaxy background.

I will post pics of examples in a sec.

Just don't go ham on graphics, as it makes things look all over the place.

Thanks Peature, It looks really cool. Ill think about using it.

@FruitCandy, I would draw something like that but again, I lack the utensils and penitence to draw using a computer. I have done it before, but It annoys me to no end. Im getting a drawing tablet soon so it shouldn't be a problem anymore.

Eventually when we get some money, we will aim to hire someone specifically for Art and Thumbnails and such. As of right now I'm in charge of both editing and Art for the channel.

Edit: @ Peature, The thing is that the art for the games changes whenever we change our respective main series games. So in turn the > and < looking slots will need to be Plank so I would be able to change them at will, I think I can edit it to make a editble version where that is transparent enabling me to edit it whenever. But its still really nice regardless. Actually scratch that cause of the font in the way I cant remove the image without spending 2 hours shaving stuff away or accidentally damaging the font. If you could somehow remove the two remaining Game pictures that would be cool.
