Just made my first header image

    Hi everyone,

    Just had to tell someone! I just made my first header in Photoshop and then published it to my new blog. I have been trying to learn as much as possible about Photoshop through lynda.com

    The tutorials have been helping, if I do say so myself.

    Any feedback or comments?

    Thank you for the kind words. Yep, I started with a white 1200 x 200 header image and played around with some brush tools. I have tried to learn anything I can from online tutorials for Photoshop, youtube has some pretty cool ones. I am seeing that practice is really my best bet for gaining PS skills.

    Thanks again!

    Lots of vectors:D:D

    Think have a huge collection of vectors;)

    I think you can use some attracting colors to attract your visitors instead of many dull colors...:cool:

    Nice job! You'll get better the more you use it.

    I make all the headers for my blogs. I don't use Photoshop though, just PSP.

    Very nice design. I was looking for words in the "label" area. Not sure what to call it, but label comes to mind. Right next to the pink splotch on the left.
    Good job.
