Aether
The color looks great. But as LR previously stated, the focal objects did not really blend together, it kills the piece, in my opinion. And I also don't like the usage of the text, because, it's kinda hard to read them, would've been better if it was placed at the bottom right, I think?
Forte
Hm, the color is nice but the text is too simple, I think. I expected something better from you actually, even though it's actually not a bad piece. I'm not a fan of the yellow border either, that kind of border is kinda hit and miss, and it's a miss in this case, I think.
Guugley
See, I know my winner like ages ago
The color is perfect, I really love the outcome of your graphic. You did well with the brushes, and I really love the text, since it's not distracting and yet, you can still notice it easily. And yeah, I agree with LR that you could've worked better on your border, but it didn't really make any difference, I think. It's a mindblowing piece.
So yeah, Guugley ;D

Original stock.
I knew Guugs was gonna bag it. I don't particularly like my piece. Eh, hindsight is 20/20

>>aether.
Good: I like the colors, everything color wise meshes nicely. Also the sparks on the right side looks pretty nice.
Bad:Basically everything else I am not a fan of. Text is difficult to read and the 2 renders don't blend together as nice as I think you are capable of doing. Both of the renders seem to clash color wise, one is dark and one is light while the rest of the banner is a darker color scheme, I would have gone with a darker render for the right side.
>>forte.penance.
Good:Nice job on blending the render colors are very eye catching. Nothing else really catches my eye, it's just 'so-so' for me.
Bad:Text is not to my liking, you should have done a 1 pix yellow instead of 2. Text is also blah, however I don't see another way that you could have made the text work, so basically I am on either side of the fence for that.
>>guugley.
Good: I love this piece, I am a sucker for this style. The flowers are done very well, as well as the overall texture of the banner. One thing that caught my eye that I really like is how the text seems to fly out of the darkness of the window.
Bad: Really difficult to find something 'bad' about this piece, the only thing that I can put my finger on is the border. I think you should have done a widescreen border or made it 2pix instead of 1.
final.DECISION.
Standing: jets15

Standing: guugley Out of the three this was by far my favorite, overall it's just perfection.
I really wish Forte and Guugley would have posted the original stocks though.
Great battle folks.

Mkey I'll go ahead and use this edit:
Just made it a little less grainy and changed the font & text placement.

No I actually finished last night and I was just waiting for LR to confirm before posting. Here it is:

Cool, added you to the list.
If for whatever reason you need an extension FP then feel free to say so, unless Aether has any objections.
