Owner, you want to get into the graphics and/or webdesign field right? Well, there are a few rules that even an experienced artist should learn. 1. Do not steal from other artists. If you do use another person's artwork, either get their permission to use it, give that person credit but it is best if you do both permission and credit. 2. Take criticism and learn from it, even if it does not help much. Learn to take it and swallow it like a bad pill. But the main thing is LEARN FROM IT. I do not mean to be so harsh but if you are choosing to be in this field, understand that it can be cut throat, gives meaning to the term 'starving artists.' Just some advice here.

Its too squarish, i personally dislike bold borders on sigs, sometimes they work , sometimes they dont, i think in here is doesnt work. 3. I can tell that you did not put alot of personal effort into your work, but i am not going to cry about it, i think a lot of people in here started that way too, including me, as you learn you will understand what we are talking about here. Take a look around this place, look at other peoples styles, get inspired and come back with something a bit more homegrown.
