-Always add a border! It just makes it really slick!

Eh, not really.

You think this banner would look good with a border?

Or this one?

Sometimes banners don't need borders. BTW, both banners made by yours truly lol

Lucario, you're doing TOO MANY banners! Slow down! Take more time for them. A banner, even a very simple one, takes me about an hour to make. You need to take your time to think!

Yeah, preach the word, Sni-vay! Banners can take an hour or more, so slow down a bit.

I didn't get that sentence lol, can you explain? haha

It's true they don't always need. But usually, and for HIS situation, it does.

Not really a border might look nicer depends on how u look at it.
If the banner is very simple and theme peace i dont think you'll need any border but if ur making stuff like other theme you'll need border because they gives a "Kept" or "Categorized" sensation and feeling.

Make your serperior image bigger and cover the upper potion of space It'll look better

The brushing isn't too bad, IMO.
And like acer said, you might wanna make Serperior bigger. Plus it looks like the right side of him is cut off a bit.
I'm getting something that's saying the banner kinda needs a border, maybe xD
You should get rid of that light or whatever it is between the 'S' and 'e' of Serperior. It looks kinda weird there . . .
It would've been a bit better if you laid off on the Sparks brushes near the upper left corner of the banner xD.

Duplicate your render layer. On the top layer, apply a 2.0 Gaussian blur and set that layer to Overlay OR Multiply, depending on which looks better. Play with the opacity but don't put it over 50%.

Blending skills are good.
The left side is still lack of decoration and use a better font.
Also you blend in too much and you totally lost your focus point.

The flames in the background are a bit too obvious.

DO NOT use Gaussian Blur, OR ANY KIND OF BLUR, on text -.- It ends up looking really bad if you don't use it right.
