Hey I dunno what to ask cos theres bound to be crit on this it was just a quick CG that took about 2 mins but the question is when my new lil art site is up will the ppl who view my art site and my online buddies choose this banner of my vampire dude Tyler or the banner I made ages ago of my Hellangel character Zante or should I use this image of my masked character of Hiyako as another banner image just change it and evrythin or should I make some more?
Anyway want your opinion and yes there will be crit but so far most ppl like Tyler.

Thats Tyler

thats Zante

and go here for Hiyako yes you can adjust them to suit you well the ppl who use em can
Hiyako with mask

Nice job on Zante's hands! I might use em once I start my Geocities site.... That I said I'de get started on a week ago...er...

I would critique em but you said it was a rush job, and they look fine for being 'rushed'. I think at your skill level you could make a really cool banner add compared to those two though. Look at the banner ads Bomu (Ben) gots in his links section, they have loads of detail, each artists puts all his talent into each of those tiny little rectangles, and each one still is hard to get to stand out among the rest.

They both look pretty cool Hellangel! I personally prefer the top vampire one. I dunno, maybe 'cos it looks more serious?

And thanks Keith, but I don't really like my banners anymore Every time I try to make a new one I think it's ok at the time, but now, I hate them all! Perhaps making banner specific artwork will help us out, rather than using existing stuff from out galleries which don't quite fit? And btw, for a 2 minte CG, that's excellent - think of what you could acheive with 2 hours!

Yeah I know I'm not that bothered bout banners sometimes I just take an already done pic and cut a piece of etc.
I like Tyler best he's my fav original in that pic he looks serious yet has a slight lil smirk and Zante is part of a full version pic
Hey Bomu your banners own what are you talkin bout?!
I will make some more I think.

hm I say put as much effort as possibly into your banner.
'couse when it is on a linkpage with 20 other pics, people will only click on the best/unique looking banners.
