Hello, welcome to my graphic thread. As you have seen in the title, I make Banners, Icons and Wallpapers. Here are some of my works:

Soon to come, I have to practice my new technique.

Wow, these are really good. I especially like the Kirlia and Gothorita art. The style they're drawen in is really nice. The Cheren banner is the same, a really cool design. And the Icons look delicous :3

I gotta agree with ~Sapphire Sceptile~, they are quite good, I don't have much idea on how you could make it better, as I"m not big on banners and such.

There's always room for improvement. ^^
Thanks for the kind comments, guys!

Awesome! I love 'em! And the icons are really sweet -shot-

I have to say, your icons are miles better than your banner (which is just an oversaturated Cheren on a screenshot background). On your first two icons, the color scheme really works with the "sweet" theme. However, the grungyness of the background ended up looking lq. I think you could also shrink them and get rid of the text, as it doesnt add much.
One more thing, do you use paint.NET? If so, I would reccomend GIMP, as it has layer ablilities, which can help immensly.

Overall, good start!

Thank you for the advice! And It may not show, But I actually use Photoshop CS2... ^^'


EDIT: I added a new banner to the first post!

Your graphics are awesome! With lots and lots of practice, you can be even awesomer. And I think I just invented a new word. Your graphics are that cool.

This one is my favourite.
