    Hey everyone, quite new to this stuff, hoping to get better. Anyways here it is:


    Fml thread design is ruined by the little thingy that says 'click here to view original size' - Anyway to remove that?

    Anyways opinions are needed (things I can improve etc).

    I am not going to be "that guy" and say it's hideous and why even try, because everyone starts somewhere. Instead I am going to point out a bunch of flaws and how to fix them. First off you should use a better background to make things look cleaner. You should then find a font that really stands out and makes people think it looks nice. You can also have different decals and patterns to make it stand out. Instead of just adding a stroke to images, try and make something out of the image. Make sure the font is readable, you don't want people not knowing what is going on. When it comes to the whole "click here to view original image", you can make the width of the picture 700px. This will make it so it still looks nice and won't have that show up above it. Everyone starts off somewhere so just keep practicing and learning from others. If you want, you can add me on skype and I can give you tutorials on how to improve your designs. Skype is in my sig.

    The font makes it hard to read and the background doesn't reflect well the title.
    Try to adjust both to make it easier to navigate, thats the point of a thread design

    This really depends on what age bracket market are you into with. It looks like you are going into 14-19 people. Because if you are going to make it more professional use a little colors (and should be in the same color shade or near the color shade), little details and be vigilant to details such as text and use font that would match the thread (most often it would be handwritten or calligraphy). You can also check other thread design not to copy but to gather ideas and put it into one.

    The updated one is a huge improvement than the original

    Overall it's fairly nice, fonts are good and colors are decent, but there is always room for improvement, don't give up and keep taking advice.

    Would give it a 7/10 and I'm being fairly generous with that rating, it may appeal to some and others may hate it

    Like everyone else is saying, I personally don't think the font is nice. The font kinda makes this hard to read

    Not a fan of the font and the background colors. Personally blue/silver/gold is more appealing. However, if you need some nice, cool, custom fonts, hmu on skype at ******mpghlegion

    What I think you should change:
    - Don't add stroke (Skype logo + Paypal logo)
    - Fon't is awful [I'd say use Chosence/Opificio - Personal favorites]
    - Background colors too dark
