So I wanted to make something new. Looks simple, but it took a while getting deryck cut out of the pic. Tell me what you think. I had another one that kinda had an iPod look, but I didn't really like it. here it is. If anyone wants me to resize it I could if you want

It's great, but I don't like the "Deryck" text, it's kind of pixelised. Good job, tho

Yeah I know what you're talking about, around the "y" is what kills it, but I tried everything to get it to look better but no luck. :/

Great job cutting Deryck out. I hate cutting things out, it's so tedious when they're really detailed, haha. The X's look kind of plain compared to the design in the background. Maybe tatter up the X's a bit around the edges and whatnot so it looks worn out. Color scheme is good. You can't really go wrong with red and black, haha.

I might fix the x's. I took it from his guitar. I tried putting the guitar in, but it didn't fit. I'll try it out when I get home from work.

I like it, except the x's ruin it for me. other than that, a hell of a lot better than I could do.

Did you do it on photoshop ?
If you did, you could maybe take some scotch stripes (I don't know where to find them, there might be some on deviantart) and do a cross with it, it would definately look awesum !

Nice! I really like it. Very nicely cut out and your composition is great.
I'd be tempted to lose the pixelly white border on "deryck" and just use a stroke in photoshop. Maybe re cut out and re colour the X's as they're a little grainy. Bring in the top X a bit closer and rotate it/shrink it a bit so it's not the same as the other one. You've cut off a bit of the y at the bottom as well. Don't forget that anyone with a start bar will have more cut off the bottom if they fit to screen so maybe bring the whole image up a little.

Yup I did it in Photoshop, and I'll try what you said and see how it looks.

Thank you very much, I know what you're talking about with the letters. Funny thing is, those letters are actually brushes, not a text, so when I stroke it it still give me the same problem. I might just get rid of the stroke all together. I'll take your advice and see how it looks from what you said.
