So after being bitten by the graphics bug, I've taken on a bigger challenge and thought i'd give this a go;

This may well be my forum signature during summer and other people can feel free to use it :D
I added shadows like people recommended from my previous attempts and overlayed the writing to make it pop a bit more :)

Any and all feedback will be appreciated!

Made parameters smaller so it can be used without Martin complaining ;) Also made front bigger

It's looking better than your previous one, but that text is far too big and it doesn't really go well (Isn't it volter that's the gd lookin one idk) and add a border, it usually looks better. Other then that you're getting better :P

looks pretty good but the font ruins it
you should download something from dafont.com (that's less pixel-y)

definite improvement, although the text could still be better, try something with a better weight on it, like this one (http://www.dafont.com/comix-loud.font) for example. and you can't go wrong with putting a gradient on it too.

people are saying add a border but if you do id personally go with a black outline with a lowered opacity to let some of the background seep through.

For your third, it's not bad, could do with more graphics style text in it, something that looks alittle nicer, the text is hideous, but apart from that, its nice, well done!

It would look awesome if you had a little habbo border around it, mini habbo hotels or something :). Or may summer releated, ICMS?

The alts are good. good job with that :)

If that is volter font (which it looks like :O) the only sizes it really suits is 18 and 9. Looks like you have put the drop shadow to the left and not the right which looks odd to me and you need to add a stroke!

As dave suggested you should download fonts from dafont.com with a bit of weight like i said the other day lol!!

I quite like this. I am liking the colour in it and it's fairly simple with not too much going on. Nice work.

Right heres my third attempt at my third graphic :P Its within the non VIP parameters and I added a border (went with @Nick (http://www.habboxforum.com/member.php?u=75119); suggestion of 1px black and white.) Also changed the font to a nicer sort of varsity font (which I've just noticed is a bit bugger so I may change it again later). But yeah any feedback would be appreciated! :D

SMOD Martin has also informed me (grr) that I need to shave 50 pixels off. Apparently size DOES matter.

Final edit :D I'm pretty happy with the overall outcome :D Any input @Dave (http://www.habboxforum.com/member.php?u=10680); @Skynus (http://www.habboxforum.com/member.php?u=66909); @Nick (http://www.habboxforum.com/member.php?u=75119); @Bolt660 (http://www.habboxforum.com/member.php?u=55726);? :)

Just realised I didnt replace the border when I cropped...

still not keen on the text, it's not very clear. blocky, bold cartoony fonts work best with habbo graphics

Sorted the border out. I like that font its like varsity writing sort of feels a bit more summery to me

I like it, the colours are nice. However, it doesn't seem like you've edited a lot.

I think for your third attempt you've done really well. It just comes with a bit of practice, good work ^.^
