I don't mean to be one of 'those guys' or anything, but I've done far more than just add a filter to a photo. I really DON'T want to come off that way, please don't think of me being like...one of those 'sore loser' kinda guys, I'm just saying. I've added rays of light, fixed the contracts and light curves, blurred the confetti, gave a smokey and grainy look to the image, and slapped the new GN'R logo on it. When someone says "Looks like you've just added a filter to a photo" it kinda feels insulting. It's like if you said "Looks like some special effects added to some text" to TC's. Which is a great banner btw, I rather like it, that's just an example. You may have, and we never said that. How would I, someone who has never used photoshop in that way, notice what you did? I don't know how to do effects, nor do I know what the original picture looks like. What I said was it didn't stand out and grab me. It looks like a rather large, grainy picture to me and my untrained eye. It's not meant in an insulting way, because its 1000x better than what I can do, but it's the truth. I'm not going to bullshit you around. It's an advertising thing and it just really doesn't jump out and make me want to check them out. Don't take offence, because I know you're a talented artist and 10000000x better at photoshop, but I just feel as if it was a miss. Personally, I think it would have been better to leave the main picture of him bright and regular to make it stand out, possibly add tour dates and a bigger, more eye-grabbing logo. Plus possible some faded pics of the others in the background. Oh, and an outline. Once again, sorry, I didn't mean to insult you. I'm just saying what I feel. I'd expect the exact same from you on a review of my micros.

I'd expect the exact same from you on a review of my micros. I probably should've considered a little more when making it. I still want in on these shows though, it's fun as hell and alot easier for me to manage doing Photoshop shows because I can do Photoshop in my spare time. Congrats TC!
