Yeah, this was for a NaNo banner, but as it's now deleted, this is a thread to gather together all my futile attempts to Sally Forth into the mysterious and attractive world of Art.

*NaNo banner removed due to deletion and waste of space*

My first suggestion would be to put a gradient fade on the bottom and left-hand side of the picture of Dakota Fanning, and the top of the picture of the ... guy in a costume? so that they blend into the image.

It makes me really want to know what your story is about.

...what is it about? ;)

Woah...

That's really cool, twit! I like it and it reminds me of an actual movie poster.

And I'm wondering the same thing as Via. ^_^ lol

Heh, thanks! :D I'm still not positive how Stray turns out, but it's about a boy (Harry) who does an act in a Victorian music hall with a talking dog. It's tied up with Spring heeled Jack, and imagery reminiscent of To Kill A Mockingbird.

Aww! That's a cute dog. I like your banner/poster, I think it's cool to represent your characters like that. Makes things seem more realistic. More tangible.

I like it. Good work. ;)

Aw, I love that dog! It looks like Eddie, from Frasier!

Well, only a little younger.

I think I like the second one better; it's smaller and it's got more designed into a smaller surface area.

Peace, love, chocolate,

I really like both of them- the banner especially. They both have a very victorian feel.

Your NaNo looks like it will be great!

The two kids on the right are Irregulars. The one standing up is Simpson, the one sitting down with the cap is Wiggins. I haven't a clue who the others are.
