Does it blend well?

[wcsjk]

I am learning the Photoshop thing very slowly. I did a banner for the forum but it just didnt look right so this morning I have spent the last 1/12 hours working on extracting, highlighting and all those fun things.

If someone can give thier opinon on this, anything that should be changed etc.

Thank you very much

It's a good start, and I think you've made good use of the stock. It's a simple design and I like that. The centre image is well placed and blends well, while the dropshadow on the poker chips looks great. Also, on the last image, either have it extending out on the top and bottom, or enclose it all inside the image. Would work better.

Put the stroke on the top layer too. Text looks quite good too.

Good job

I think it might help if you moved the words over the picture of the men..

I tried to do that with the chips "popouts" except when I did.....I am having this issues with my banner on the forum having a big white box surrounding it...so when I did the popouts it made it even worse. I originally wanted the chips to come out the sides. Thanks for the input and I am going to go move tose chips over didnt even see that. Thanks
